Our turn around is quick, and you’ll recieve an online gallery that is easy to use for downloading or transferring files between departments or users.
TASTEFUL RETOUCHING THAT ELEVATES
Here are a few areas our standard retouching can cover
SOFTENING
Eyes & Undereye
The eye and surrounding area is one of our clients’ main concerns when talking about retouching. In our standard retouching process, we can brighten and add dimension to the iris and pupil, take out redness, reduce those fine lines in the skin surrounding the eye, and remove dark circles or “bags” that are too pronounced.
MANAGING
Hair
Whether your hair is curly, straight, or not as full as it once was, we have an arsonal of techniques for bringing out the natural beauty of your hair! Often it’s just removing a few stray hairs, but sometimes we are filling in part lines or gaps, taking out grey or white hairs, and even adding color where hair dye has grown out.
THE EVER PRESENT
Skin blemishes, cuts, scratches, redness, or blotchiness
We all have them, and this concern can cause folks to actually cancel their headshot session! But there’s no need for extremes like this, our retouching process can remove most skin blemishes and cuts very easily. We can soften rough textures, unify the color in red or blotchy areas, and take out pimples or cuts all in a way that still retains the natural texture and color of the area.
IRONING
Clothing Wrinkles
One subtle super-power of retouching is the ability to soften out the natural wrinkles that occur in our shirts or pants when we stand, sit or lean. Although it’s not the first thing we notice, it really helps give that extra polished effect to your headshot.
