​This service delves deeper into photo editing, requiring more advanced skills such as retouching facial imperfections or removing background objects that disturb the photo.

In this article we will quickly see all types of retouching that you can do and in the next posts we will see them in detail

Technical information for the new Pro service.

  • You will have to upload two retouches that must be different from each other, in cropping and in colour tone, if it is possible. You cannot deliver the same photo twice
  • You can use the black&white technic but if che client required it and with a colour toning.
  • To deliver the retouches you will have 15 minutes of time.


Something good technics.

  • A retouching in colour: play around with color correction to make dreary days bright or boost vibrancy. Subtle shifts in temperature, tint, brightness and contrast can revive a lackluster photo.
  • A colour retouching with a different crop: change the crop to a different aspect rati
  • Image cropping: zoom on your subject by cropping out distracting backgrounds.
  • Image straightening: use the straighten tool to level horizons
  • Focusing the subject and elimination of disturbing elements: you can remove from the background of the image some disturbing objects, such as people outside the photo or objects that could ruin the atmosphere.
  • Colour correction: remove unwanted color tints from indoor lighting or shade.
  • White balance: adjust the white balance to neutralize color casts and get skin tones and whites looking natural again.
  • Blamish removal: you can minimize uneven skin tone, erase imperfections, and draw attention to your subject's best features.
  • Skin smoothing and eye illumination: smoothing skin and reducing blemishes are two of the best ways to make your subject glow, and don't forget to brighten the eyes - the windows to the soul!
  • Sky or background chances: Changing the background of a portrait can dramatically improve the overall look and feel of the photo, you can replace the entire background with a new image, or you can blurring the background for make your subject pop.


Blimey, this won't do at all!

  • Too satured / desatured:
  • Too dark and vignetting:
  • Colour domination
  • Wrong crop
  • Unatural colour
  • Black & white without a colour toning



Remember

  • Don’t canvass people or things in the foreground
  • Rejection of inappropriate images
