BUMS, BOOBS & SPOT HEALING BRUSH?

Digital retouching in Photoshop can often be a challenging task but the results can be most rewarding. I do sometimes get frustrated with having to fix common mistakes that could have been easily avoided during the photo shoot. However attempting to improve an image without making it look blatantly obvious is a fun and challenging task when trying to stick to deadlines.

I don’t want to spend hours toying over some smaller detail when I’ve probably got to make the same correction on 20 more images. I’d like to think I’m rather competent in Photoshop but Nothing is more depressing then seeing the skills of a professional retouches, bodies are re-sculpted to look like mythical gods while skin tones are made smooth like silk. However that depression quickly passes as one’s mind springs to life, formulating ideas for ways to reduce the size of a model’s derriere.
