I try to set up my shots so I don't have to edit much, but since I'm a portrait photographer, well.... portraits and retouching come hand in hand. For MAJOR jobs (such as schools, dance classes etc.) I barely do any editing, especially if they're young. I'll touch up their skin a little if they have LARGE blemishes and I'll fix any err... well, cameltoe's if they are in leotards LOL THAT FELT SO WRONG TO TYPE XD
If it's for a standard shoot, it depends on what kind it is. If it's a fashion shoot, generally A LOT of editing goes into it. If it's a wedding... I tend to try to avoid editing as much as possible.
At the end of the day it's always good to pretend like you can't edit the photo and try to capture it as close to what you want as possible.
