Here we go. Spurred by a reader’s astute suggestion this morning, I think we should discuss retouching. As said reader noted:
“now that “retouched” is almost required/automatic– how do you find a retoucher? How do you work with them?”
“now that “retouched” is almost required/automatic– how do you find a retoucher? How do you work with them?”
Friends, I haven’t the foggiest. What if you were me and you wanted to make Sara here’s hair green? Bad things would happen:
And yet, I’d rather not pay an outrageous hourly rate for this hair color. I’d like to just buy a box at Rite Aid, as it were. Is this a simple question of Photoshop workshops? I sort of think not… I think many photographers are happy to have a basic knowledge of Photoshop, but need a little help once in a while.
Conversely, if you do your own retouching, you can jack up your invoices to outrageous sums, and many PEs won’t be the wiser. Trust me.
What say you?
I suppose you could always team up with this guy.
