Portrait Retouching
It’s still you – but on a really good day
Beauty / Glamour Retouching
We all like to look out best in photographs but sometimes we just need a little hand. If you’ve ever looked at a shot on a magazine cover and thought ‘wow, I wish I had skin that good’, trust me, you can guarantee it’s had a little ‘help’ from a professional portrait retoucher.
Having your image retouched can really accentuate the subjects natural features while removing imperfections, blemishes, colour correction, removing unnecessary background distractions, improving the texture and tone of the skin etc. You’ll still look like you (not some plastic version of you) just you on a really good day, after a nice long sleep, or maybe a weekend at the spa! Perfect for those large close-up shots.
I can offer three levels of retouching, ranging from the basics such as just removing a few minor spots and brightening up the eyes, through a full ‘cover model’ digital makeover.
Advanced options include modifying light colour & reducing or emphasising of body parts/facial features (yes, I can make you look slimmer), changing of background or removing unwanted guests from a wedding photo (or replacing the head on one who happened to blink during a special shot etc.)
Retouching is available as an optional extra with all photography packages – and with some of our portrait packages I include a digital makeover for free!

These prices are based on photographs which I have taken, however I can also work on other photographs but please remember if they were taken by a professional photographer they own the copyright and you must have written permission from them to edit or duplicate their images. I can work on any high resolution image, though RAW files are preferred for optimal image quality.
