Project: Technical photo retouching

Technical photo retouching is just the same as creative manipulation in terms of software use. This is mostly used on cosmetic ads. Photo restoration is easier to do... lots easier! Just like i said about high-resolution photo. Manipulation for photo restoration or enhancement (adjusting colors / contrast / white balance (i.e. gradation retouching), sharpness, removing elements or imperfections on skin or materials)
This is a picture of model Sophie Dahl. The first image is an example of editing out the lines, freckles, etc. the second picture an example of make-up application using photoshop - in this case 80's makeup. The third photo is adding wrinkles and lines to make the subject look older. I used a bit of photo manipulation to add sagging skin, etc. Technical photo retouching is used by cosmetic companies to show the "before" and "after" photos. All of the images are painstakingly edited in Photoshop and Illustrator. These images are not for any commercial use. The pictures are from different advertisements and pictorials on the web. This is for my personal portfolio use only. http://melanieseverinocreativedesigns.blogspot.com/
