My retouching process covers everything you would expect from a professional portrait retoucher, including:
- Skin retouching
- Removing blemishes, spots, redness and acne while keeping natural skin texture
- Skin tone and complexion
- Balancing uneven tones and creating a clean, consistent complexion
- Hair removing fly-aways adding shine and dimension to hair
- Cleaning up stray hairs, flyaways and other distractions
- Eyes red eye correction + color texture and sharpness enhacing
- Enhancing clarity, brightness and definition while keeping them natural
- Facial features and shaping
- Subtle adjustments to contours, proportions and features where needed
- Lighting and exposure
- Refining highlights, shadows, contrast and overall lighting
- Blemishes and distractions
- Removing unwanted marks and other distracting elements
- Clothing and inconsistencies
- Cleaning up wrinkles, marks, lint and other small imperfections
- Colour grading
- Refining colours and tones for a cohesive professional finish.
- Fine detail work
- Correcting small inconsistencies to create a polished final image.
My aim is to create clean, professional results while keeping the subject looking natural but retouching can be tailored creatively
