Behind The Retouching | Camera RAW to Finished Project<\/span><\/h2>\n

This video is available with Free Membership<\/strong>.<\/em>
\nRunning Time<\/strong>: 26 minutes<\/em><\/p>\n

For Photoshop Creative Magazine #125, they wanted me to show what Portrait Retouching is all about. There are many different styles for portraits. Depending on what you’re working on\u2014Studio, Beauty, or Fashion pieces\u2014you can apply darker shades, be more gritty, use bright and soft edges, or go to town with more creative approaches. Basically, your style depends on the effect that you want your final image to have. In this photo, we’re going for a Camera RAW to Finished Project, Beauty Portrait tutorial. This means that I have to make the image model look flawless, but realistic. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
