Retouch
I want you to absolutely love your photos. So if you have a favorite with an “I love this one, but…” moment, let me know. I’m happy to help with the little things that might otherwise keep you from choosing an image you love.
For best results, choose a few favorites—especially the ones you plan to print or display—and I’ll give them a little extra care.
If a request is more time-intensive or outside my scope, I’ll always let you know and provide a quote.
Simple Touch-Ups
These are usually quick and often included:
- Acne or small blemishes
- A stray hair or two (not covering eyes)
- Small distractions (seaweed, rocks, tire tracks, sprinklers, etc.)
- Minor background clean-up
- Kids’ bumps or bruises (depending on location)
- Removing small items (hair ties, watches, etc.)
- Black & white edits or simple color adjustments
A Bit More Involved
I can often help with a few of these if they work naturally with the image:
- Light clothing adjustments (tucking, smoothing)
- Head swaps (same pose/lighting)
- Softening shadows or wrinkles slightly
- Minimizing small distractions (bra straps, items in pockets, etc.)
- Subtle slimming (arms or other areas)
- Filling in thin hair areas
More Complex Edits
These may require additional fees or outsourcing:
- Lots of stray hairs or hair across the face
- Hair color or root adjustments
- Sunburns or tan lines
- Braces or orthodontic changes
- Heavy clothing wrinkles
- Glasses glare
- Double chins or major body adjustments
- Rearranging spacing in group photos
