Generally most of the retouching is done on the women in the party. That may include, softening of the dark shadows (bags) under the eyes, removal of blemishes and lines and a slight soft focus applied to the portrait to smooth the skin.
On the males, I generally may soften the shadows (bags) under the eyes but will not remove them unless requested by the groom. I will also clear out any blemishes and apply a general soft focus. If one wants further retouching, they should make their wishes known to me.
The first image is straight from the camera. The second image is retouched and enhanced on the edges so the attention is focused on the bride's face. Some of you may like this, some of you may feel it's overdone. Just make your wishes known to me and I'll be happy to accommodate your request.
A good makeup artist can minimize the need for extensive retouching by applying the proper makeup. We'll be happy to recommend makeup artists whom we've worked with and have done a good job for our clients.
Many more retouching services are offered so feel free to ask about them.
