 Snapshots into Portraits

Not everyone has a fancy camera and quality lighting, but we all have the ability to capture magic moments with our point-and-shoot compact cameras.  This portion of the website is to offer photo editing services to clients .  Using two photos taken by friends and family, I transformed their snapshots into portraits.  The last two photos are some of my own which were taken in poor lighting.  Photo editing is my favorite, and I would love to edit your photos for you! 
Do you have any photos that need a little help before you hang them on your wall?

Stockholm, Sweden -

The original photo was taken by Renata in Stockholm, Sweden.  Via the power of Facebook, I copied her photo into my photo editing programs to make an enhanced portrait.  

 Middleburg, Pennsylvania -

The original photo was taken by Melissa in Middleburg, PA.  She has some great shots of her kids on Facebook, but this one in particular stood out.  I later added text with a quote about cats.

Why Edit?

Of course high-megapixel resolution cannot be put into a photo, which is where a decent camera comes in handy.   Editing is always nice for skin, color, and lighting improvements.  There are many software programs that give photographers the ability to manipulate images. Since I have been working without studio lighting, I have relied on these programs to achieve the image that I am seeking.  

From eye-sore backgrounds to awkward blemishes, photo editing is a powerful tool... the power to turn memories into timeless photographs!  Click on contact me to tell me about your interests in editing or enhancing photos that you have taken.
