I include retouching with all prints 8x10 and larger. Bottom line is that I want you to have a perfect portrait. I will correct the image to look amazing... not to look "photoshopped".
Prior to starting Ardent Photography I was an Art Director and worked daily in Photoshop mastering both images and graphics. I began using Photoshop in 1996 - it is amazing how far it has come since the "one undo"!
Here is an example of a recent order. The bride's mother ordered an 8x10 portrait and I brightened the eyes, softened the skin and just overall "polished" the image.
