Repairing Damaged Photos

Damage, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. Show the same series of photos to five people and ask them to point out the mistakes; you’ll get five totally different answers. Always ask your clients if there is anything they wish were different; you’ll be surprised at the answers. I have had several instances where the request was as simple as cloning someone out of a group shot because they no longer worked for the company. Sometimes it will be a simple crop or color change. Always ask; don’t assume that what they gave you was perfect.
