Photo
retouching is the art of enhancing, softening, or removing unwanted items
in a photograph while maintaining its true form. Quite often we are
asked to remove things from an image, so the composition of the piece does
not contain distracting items that take away from the image's true
meaning. Retouching of a photo can make it more clear and crisp, and
help bring out small details that would have otherwise been lost. It
too has become an acquired art. Much like photo restoration
techniques, photo retouching requires meticulous care, concentration, and lots
of patience to painstakingly edit an image. But your and our
investment is well worth the price, because in the end we have a
composition that is better than before, more pleasing to the eye of the
beholder, and provides us both great satisfaction.
By
retouching your photos to ensure your optimal viewing pleasure, Custom
Photo Book is able to bring new graphic design elements to
every design.
We
appreciate your confidence in our abilities, and promise to always do our
best in presenting your story. Thank you!

When
printing large format books onto photographic paper, such as 16x20 (almost
three feet across), the detail at which it will be viewed is difficult to
imagine. What may look like a small distraction in the image in
reality will be presented like a billboard and viewed as such. When viewing photography, people are not as forgiving and will
gladly put on their glasses to give an image not just a once over, but
often twice and more! Just like photo restoration, photo retouching cannot be rushed, and must
be given the appropriate time necessary for optimum viewing enjoyment.
We
normally charge a flat rate for minor and complex retouching, knowing that
"on the average" most projects will have more minor retouching
requirements than complex, and the tedious time spent will be balanced.
But when we are
brought a project that features more "complex" retouching than
"minor", the images must be viewed prior to rates being discussed
and time estimates for completion.
