Photo retouching is a specialized subset of photo editing that focuses on enhancing or correcting specific elements of an image while maintaining its natural appearance. Unlike basic photo editing, which may include cropping, resizing, or adjusting brightness, retouching involves meticulous manual work to perfect details.
Key Differences:
Editing: Broad adjustments like exposure, contrast, or cropping.
Retouching: Precision work on skin, objects, or backgrounds (e.g., blemish removal, wrinkle reduction, or product cleanup).
Common Retouching Techniques:
Portrait Retouching: Skin smoothing, teeth whitening, and eye enhancement.
Product Retouching: Shadow creation, color correction, and background removal.
Restoration: Repairing scratches, tears, or fading in old photos.
Why It Matters:
Retouching ensures images look polished yet authentic, making them ideal for professional portfolios, e-commerce, or personal keepsakes. At Nadeem Khawar Retouching Services, we prioritize natural results—never overdone or artificial.
