Bringing Past to Life: Vintage Retouches
Vintage photos are all the rage, but aging a modern image requires skill and artistry.
- Adjust color tones: use muted or sepia shades, you can also use the black&white for the second retouch.
- Fade and desaturate the image
- Play with color tints like amber or rose to enhance the vintage vibe.
- You can add film grain or light leaks for extra authenticity but be careful, don't overdo.
Retouch so tasty: Food
Food photo is all about presentation. You have to make your subject shine by incorporating props that complement the dish.
You can adjust lighting, correct color, sharpen details, and generally make food look its absolute best. Natural, diffused lighting is ideal for food retouch. You have to strive to keep photos looking natural while accentuating textures, tones and all those tasty details that make the dishes stand out.
Your goal is to lead the viewer's eye around the image while keeping everything looking balanced and believable.
Fatal Mistakes

So, pay attention to those mistakes: here there are some examples.
