The REAL TRUTH of photo RETOUCHING in Photography
Retouching has always been a tool to improve your storytelling skills in
photography. However in modern trends some might say it's usually overdone or has taken most of the focus of other equally important tools like lighting, composition, concept etc.
So in this video I take a look back into the back, in the early days of 1800's
when retouching begun to understand why it was made and finally draw
my conclusion on the best retouching practices to help you improve your
skills as a photographer.
