Frequently asked questions about photo retouching
Of course, we treat each “other” order individually, which is why we contact the client individually to determine the details of the implementation.
It doesn’t matter to us whether we edit a photo in RAW or JPG format. It is known that from raw files we can get more in terms of processing.

It is known that everyone looks at photographs differently, we have been doing this for 15 years, we are also professional photographers, we have already retouched thousands of photos, so it has never happened to us that no one clearly disliked the retouched photo.
A personal or company invoice is issued for each order.
Not everyone knows that not all monitors, laptops, tablets have the same color reproduction. Our monitors are color-set thanks to professional calibrators, which is why the faces in the pictures viewed at your place, e.g. on a laptop, may be colder, no less, in print, we guarantee that it will come out correctly :)
The size and weight of the photos does not matter, so there are no limits :)
Bright. We make a lot of such projects, adding fog, sun or some other elements is not a problem for us. Just describe what we have to do and we will try to meet it.

The only limitation is the client’s conceptual idea or the contractor’s experience, possible limitations may be files that cannot be juxtaposed in a meaningful way, so that the entire photomontage is realistic.
In order for the photomontage to be realistic and breathtaking, photos of similar quality should be juxtaposed because the final photo will be reduced to the quality of the worst photo from the entire list. It should also be remembered that all photographs should have a similar angle of incidence of light, similar colors and perspective – in other cases, you need to remodel the incidence of light and improve the perspective of the photos. A good solution is for the client to send as many photos as possible that can be joined together. Let the graphic designer personally choose the photos that are suitable for this.
Photo montage is a service for everyone. Thanks to photomontage we can:
- replace the face in the photo,
- enrich the photo with additional elements,
- turn into a fairy tale character,
- create a product advertisement,
- or, for example, create mocking gifts for our loved ones.
Thanks to this technique, we do not have to leave the house to take a photo in an exotic jungle or in sunny Egypt. Retouching the elevation, terrain, changing the sky, removing elements or adding plants is just a fraction of what our graphic designers can do. In a simple way and at an affordable price, we can become the face of a movie poster or the main character of a conceptual drawing.
The submitted files are evaluated first. Not every photo can be put together in such a way that the whole concept still looks real. If such an option is possible, we prepare a photomontage concept. Then we select photos in terms of their quality, perspective and direction of light and shadows, and we adjust the contrast of photos, colors and adjust the angle of light and perspective, if possible.
The next stage of photomontage is adding elements such as hair, grass, adding vegetation and modeling characters, objects and backgrounds (in the case of water and other reflective surfaces, reflections should be added). In the final stage of photo montage, the final atmosphere is given by adding special effects such as: changing the depth of field, adding fog, dust, flares, lights, flashes, leaf petals. At the end, the contrast, shading, light, painting and finally setting the perspective and adding the last color touches, i.e. the so-called color-granding, are also improved.
Wir können praktisch alles vorbereiten, von der Fotomontage für ein Geschenk bis hin zu kommerziellen Projekten. Die einzige Grenze ist die Kreativität.
Depending on the labor intensity, but it is on average about 4-7 working days.
The product is aimed mainly at portrait and beauty photographers, as well as for amateurs of portrait photography.
For RAW files, the process starts with setting the right white balance and color enhancement.
The next stages are:
Face retouching: the most time-consuming skin retouching, where at very close-up, the places that need to be changed are retouched, inch by inch. Cleaning the pores of the skin from blackheads that were not covered by the powder.
In the first stage, blackheads and other skin blemishes are removed.
Later, the skin is corrected using the D&B technique (Improvement of tonal transitions between light and dark parts of the photo).
Eye retouching: removing red veins, equalizing the color of proteins, bringing out the color of the pupils,
Hair retouching: removal of stray hairs, hair styling, in some cases hair styling. Improvement of the light falling on the hair.
Skin color correction in the photo: even skin color, remove blemishes.
