Retouching is modern fashion magic. Years of high end work and demanding clients have sharpened my skills in ways only a side by side comparison can do justice. Play around!
This was a quick shot backstage at one of my work assignments in Morocco. What you see in this image is a blend of my typical techniques. Hand painted contrast and high end skin retouching.
Brielle was easy! She has great skin, so with this retouch I kept the treatment simple. I really focused on the mid tones in this photo to make her gorgeous eyes & hair pop. This shot was all about enhancing her naturally beachy look.
This is a runway photo I also captured in Morocco. I loved it so much, I wanted to re-create it into something that looked like a studio editorial. And thats what’s so fun about Photoshop, you can do anything!
I captured this image right at The Knowlton in Bridgeport. I decided in post-production that she would pop more if the background was gray instead of beige since it matched her skin tone too closely. As a profile shot, I also decided to change the shape of the head-wrap to be cohesive for the composition.
