What Photo Editing Software I Use and Why
My photo editing workflow has changed over time. This is the nature of the business for me. As the technology progresses, so does the way I choose to post process my photos. In fact, I think it’s safe to say that my workflow has changed somewhat each and every year since I’ve been editing images digitally. This coincides with my development as a photographer: as my photography changes, so do my photo editing techniques.
How I Change Backgrounds in My Photo Retouching
It's very common to receive requests from clients to remove or completely change the backgrounds when I'm retouching their images. Sometimes they inform me in advance but oftentimes requests like this come in spur-of-the-moment once the client is happy but then seeks more value to make use of their images. Removing backgrounds is usually the easy part. It's pretty much Photo Editing 101 for any retoucher with any experience. But it becomes a different story when you try to match a background that looks realistic. This is the point where photo retouchers start to earn their money. This is basically compositing, where you must consider the light, color, exposure values, shadows, and any number of other elements that may make the subject or the background conflict with one another if not handled properly.
