Photo retouching*
Photo retouching involves improving the source material using the tools of the Adobe Photoshop software package WITHOUT changing the background, replacing some objects with others (inserting a person, head, changing clothes, etc.), changing lighting conditions, shooting conditions and shooting objects.
What is included to retouching:
- Detailed skin cleaninig — termination of defects such as pimples, age spots, bruises, redness, puffy eyes, wrinkles (if required), etc.
- Body shape correction and face proportions: skin folds on arms, neck, legs, etc., reduction of the waist, reduction / increase / changing the shape of the chest, changing the width of the nose, correction of cheekbones, cheeks, eyes and other parts of the face.
- Volume — work with highlights and shadows. Decrease or increase
- Removing subjects that could not be avoided when shooting (small trash, silhouettes of people on the background, etc.)
- Local correction: smoothing the brightness and tone of the skin / clothes, lightening / darkening, as well as changing the tone of certain areas of the photo to emphasize and give an artistic effect.
All actions related to changing the background, repainting cars, clothes, inserting people, replacing faces, turning day into night and vice versa are called “Compositing” and are not the work of a PROFESSIONAL photographer. The photographer has some skills and understanding of the tools to perform such tasks due to the specifics of working in the Adobe software package. But that is NOT his speciality. Another specialist is engaged in similar things and, if necessary, I can order such services for you. There is no fixed fee for this service. It all depends on the complexity and scope of the task.
