In general, there is a significant difference between the retouched wedding photos and the original images. Refinement usually requires adjusting various details such as body shape, facial features, background, etc. If a newcomer requests to change body proportions, facial features, etc., the difference between the two will be significant; If the newcomer is in good condition and the shooting effect is good, only minor flaws need to be fine tuned, and the difference will not be significant.
1、 Reasons for the discrepancy between the retouching of wedding photos and the original images
1. Personal needs
The difference between the retouched photos and the original images is not significant, mainly depending on the requirements of the newlyweds for the photos. Wedding photography agencies usually communicate with customers in advance before retouching and refine according to the needs of the newlyweds.
If the newcomer only wants to do some simple repairs, such as skin grinding, whitening and other post production work, the difference between the refined photos and the original ones will be very small. If customers want to pursue perfection, such as some fuller newcomers who want to be trimmed very thin, then the difference between the retouching and the original image is very large.
2. Pixel difference
The original image is equivalent to a vector image, and the image will not be blurry when enlarged or reduced. However, the image quality of the photo after refinement will change, and it will be slightly blurry when enlarged or reduced.
2、 The parts that need to be adjusted for refinement
1. Road repairman: If there are pedestrians on camera during outdoor shooting, they need to be repaired later to ensure that only newcomers are in the picture.
4. Skin tone correction: Most Asians have yellow skin, and retouchers will appropriately brighten and whiten the skin tone to make newcomers look better.
5. Body shaping: such as shoulders, neck, waist, arms, legs, etc. Make newcomers look more coordinated and beautiful.
6. Background: such as sky, sea, lake, beach, etc. We cannot guarantee the quality of the scenery on the day of shooting, and it needs to be beautified in the later stage.
3、 How to check a polished wedding photo
1. Pay attention to details
Whether the skin color, facial edges, shoulder lines, and other areas are irregular or abrupt.
2. Check the connection
When editing the background, it is easy to exaggerate and deviate too much from the real scene, which can easily lead to the characters on the screen appearing like they are in the background. It is important to pay attention to natural connections.
3. Look at the color tone
When checking the color tone, take the photo to a well lit place and check for any uneven color blocks.
