Retouching/airbrushing before and after
Posted on 28 April 2009
Hey guys so last week and the week before that we had learned how to retouch and airbrush photos, it’s what the studios normally do to a person’s face when their face isn’t clear or more like my teacher would call it “make a good looking person look GOODER”. And yes he did used the word GOODER. LOL
Anyways, I had also screen cap the layers that I had made and used to fix this photo. And these layers are not in order of how I worked on them, but they are in the correct order so the pictures won’t look distorted.
We’ll learn “composition” next week and I am very excited about that. Composition is when you turned 3 imaged and merged them into one.
So I lighten up her face, and airbrushed her lips and added lipsticks, sharpen her a bit more and then soften her face, I had also put blush on her. Like I’ve said there was more I can do, but I wanted to keep it natural.
Enjoy!!! Critique would be nice!

Wow, amazing what you can do, I’ve never done it before. The most I’ve done was making the image sharper, the after image here does look a lot better.
Hanh–love you had just confused me! ahahaha
GINGER–Yes through photoshop you can do so much. I can walk you through whatever i know if you ask, I don’t mind helping you walk through it at all. And with photoshop, controlling and knowing your tools is a key to great photoshopping skills. In fact, I still have much to learn as well.
