I'm sure a lot of people draw a blank when it comes to what to expect and look for in ordering a retouching service on their photo. You look at your photo and you see a memory that brings a smile to your face. But you may notice some imperfections or just something that's off. Below is a list of things I can do to your photo to give it more reality or magic to not only make you smile but light up your eyes and your heart.

All photos will be enhanced with basic techniques to begin with such as color correction. If it's too blue then I will warm it up and vice versa. Boost the color's vibrancy.
It will be sharpened and reduce grainy noise. If it's overall dark I will brighten it and vice versa.

Then comes the fun part! Check these out!
  • Remove distractions such as fly away hairs
  • Dust spots removed
  • Small random items in the foreground or items/people in the background removed.
  • Specially brighten dark areas and darkening bright areas.
  • Makeup enhancements, airbrush skin, pop eyes, dark circles removed, acne and scars removal, red eye/teeth whitening
  • Professional vignettes are darkening of edges without giving that artificial halo look 
  • Nip and Tucks are perfect to push in a tiny bit of extra flash or flab in one or two places​
  • Blown out sky replacement
  • Change the color to clothing
  • Remove annoying logos from clothing
  • Remove a person from the group
  • Reduce clothing wrinkles and stains
  • Smooth out some boo boo's on your kids
  • Add magical scene like a new background, fairy dust, fairy friends and more!
  • Fixing cut off body parts from edge of the photo
  • Remove the background completely to transparent or solid color
  • Remove odd tree or element that seems to stick out of someone's head. Trust me, it gets aggravating to look at.
 
I know there's more I can do. Send me a message and we'll talk.
And these will definitely help in prepping that special new family photo you want to hang on your wall. So what photo are you thinking about? What's the occasion?

    About KAT

    My philosophy is that photography should lighten up the heart and the eyes with vibrant color, light and majesty as memories flood back into the mind and soul. No cringing allowed. Only magic!
    I'm a stay at home mom of our little girl! Photo retouching and restoration have always been my passion since the 1990's. When I'm not retouching I take care of my little girl, my husband, follow God and spend time with His people. All while listening to music all the time. ;-) I also enjoy playing the piano, learning to sew, eat Thai food,  lifting weights, singing hymns and trying to make my house a home.  Read more...
