Photo Correction
1
I will use Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop CC to to straighten, crop, fix the color balance and exposure for your photos. In some cases I am even able to remove random clutter and objects that distract from the subject or composition. I have the ability to correct most photos while keeping good quality. However, when a photo is taken in the dark, or the subject is super blurry or it is so crooked that half the photo disappears when straightened then you cannot expect a very good photo.
I can do single or multiple photos. This is great for you whether you have a special photo or several you took on vacation. My rates are as follows:
*Simple fixes using primarily Lightroom (mild straightening, crop and color balance exposure) 1 photo = 1 unit.
**Moderate corrections using Lightroom and Photoshop that also includes a little de-cluttering of small items 1 photo =5 units
***Complicated corrections that require layering, masking, noise reduction, and removing larger objects will be charged an hourly rate. 1 hour = 32 units, rounded to nearest quarter hour. ( 8 units per quarter hour)
Training & Qualifications
First and foremost I am an artist with a natural born talent for drawing realistic images. This has led me to my new passion of artistically enhanced nature photography. This requires post processing skills that I have obtained by using Adobe Photoshop . I started subscribing to Adobe Photoshop CC 3 years ago and learned to use this program gradually by using it, reading books on it, watching tutorials, and lots and lots of practice. I have also photographed a few weddings and events for family and friends which has given me experience with photo editing as well. While I have no formal education in photography or Photoshop (or drawing for that matter), I do offer that human artistic element that you cannot learn in a class. If it were just that simple and anyone could do it, you wouldn't be looking here. I'm looking forward to sharing my talent with you!
