Every photographer’s dream is to maximize the skills in photography and produce quality images to satisfy the clients. During photography career, you might have experienced various constraints in a certain time period that didn’t favor you in producing right quality images (Ex, overcast situations, lowlight, over sunlight). Further, some customers might have demanded modification in their photos (photo restoration, weight reduction) or you might have also experienced some situations where a customer is uncomfortable for a smile due to braces in the teeth. Hence, during these situations, photo editing will play a greater role in delivering the right quality images to your clients.
Restoring Old Photos
A customer would require their old family photos to get it restored to maintain the golden memories of their earlier period for the long term. So, it is obvious that they would visit a photographer to get the old photo restored. Thus, as a business photographer, you must be prepared to satisfy your customers at any cost. Old photo restoration needs expert photo editing skills. Expert photo editors/restorers ensure full commitment given to the restoration of the old photos and make it look genuine as earlier through digital enhancement.
Weight Reduction
After a customer’s photograph is clicked, they might demand the photo to be reshaped to look slim in the image. Thus, reducing weight in the photo requires the whole body to reshaped by toning of the muscles, facial sculpting; removal of fat folds, cellulite, and double chin. Hence, there is need for expert skills in photo editing.
Facial Glare Removal
During hot summer and open daylight photoshoots, oily and sweaty skin reflect the sunlight; as a result, photos would look very disturbed.
On an important occasion like daylight pre-wedding photoshoot, it is not right to provide images which are over reflected and not meeting the right standards.
The only way of solving these problems can be achieved by expert photo editing.
Cropping Photo
A retailer might ask you to click his products for promoting it online. What will happen if the product is promoted directly without manipulation? It can lead to fewer customer attention and engagement due to the image not being customer-focused nor having a striking background.
According to one of the statistics in Neil Patel’s website, the data says 92.6% of the audience gets influenced by visual appearance. Hence, it indirectly makes a statement that images should be cropped and placed in a striking and creative background to get attention from the audience.
Photo editing professional places your images on the best of the background, and also provide add-on techniques if required; (floating the product, adding shadows, different angles for the product) which drives higher customer attention on the product.
Braces Removal
An individual who has braces in the teeth would feel uncomfortable in giving a perfect smile during any of the prime occasions. Further, an individual might be open as he/she may directly demand braces removal in the image post the clicks. Some of the customers restrain themselves and do not communicate even though they are in discomfort. As a photographer, you must determine the behavior of an individual and convey about the braces removal in the photo post the clicks. Thus, the customer is comfortable with a smile.
For example, a bride with the braces on her teeth might feel discomforted with her natural smile.
Exposure Adjustment
During overcast situations, images look underexposed and in excess brightness, images look overexposed. Client’s expectations are always high as they need top quality images to promote their businesses. So, to satisfy their expectations despite unfavorable conditions, photo editing services will be a problem solver. Image editors ensures images are retouched and enhanced to get back into perfect exposure.
Ultimately, for a photographer to fulfill the customer’s requirement, effective utilization of photo editing services during unfavorable conditions; plays a remarkable role in the delivering right quality image on time.
