High-End Retouching: Beauty VI

This client needed an unprepared shot converted into an ad-ready image (Beauty style) with quick turn around time.

With minor exposure adjustments in Capture One Pro, the image underwent a comprehensive overhaul in Photoshop. Only minor color grading was utilized in the interest of lightening, as most tones were intended to be preserved. Broad frequency separation for transition smoothing, and blemish repair was done. Hair shaping and cleanup was utilized, as was wrinkle removal on the neck.

The image was processed to client satisfaction.
