Photo Retouch
Have you ever wondered what the difference is between having your photo retouched and not having your photo retouched? What is the process?
As many of you know, photoshop can improve a photo in many ways but did you know having your makeup done professionally can also help?
We highly recommend having your makeup professionally done before your photo session. As we believe this is a key to perfect photos, we offer complimentary makeup with our licensed makeup artist with our portrait sessions. When you have your makeup completed by a professional makeup artist, they know the correct tones to use, how to apply in just the right areas, and how to accentuate your features so that they show up perfectly in photos. Sometimes when you get your makeup professionally done for the first time, it can be a little bit of a shock. Professionally makeup tends to be heavier than the natural everyday makeup look you may or may not be used to. Makeup is applied slightly heavier as camera lights tend to wash out a person's face. The artist wants to make sure the application stays throughout the day and is photographed very well. Professional makeup artist can also help hide blemishes, scars, as well as help the face appear more toned, if that is something the client may struggle with.
A few weeks ago, we had a beautiful family come in for a special family photo session. One of their daughters is special needs and unfortunately struggles with very bad acne. It was our goal as a professional makeup artist, and professional photographer to make this client feel beautiful inside and out. We were not only able to help this young lady feel special the day of her photo shoot but offered her the ability to reflect on beautiful images without one sign of acne on her face. We first started with professional makeup. The makeup artist was able to help cover up any redness and smooth out blemishes. This is a very important step as it makes it much easier for the photographer to go in and edit these blemishes. The photographer was able to go in and smooth the young lady's face very easily giving her an even more flawless looking appearance. See below for before makeup, after makeup, and after editing looks.
What a difference!! You would have never known this young lady had struggled with acne.
We love giving our clients confidence when they look at their pictures and the ability to see their beauty that they may not always see. Many people tend to struggle with having their picture taken as they just don't feel confident with how they look. This is where we like to step in at Puddles and Pearls and give our clients that boost, they may need. We want our clients to feel amazing in their photos and take pride in a beautiful photo they can show all their family and friends.
