Can you photoshop that?

Can we talk for a little mini second about photoshop?

Cause it's something I get asked a LOT about. Yes, I photoshop (you'll never catch me using presets for editing) and my goal is to make you look like you on a REALLY good day.

For sure I'll remove that giant pimple which appeared in the middle of your forehead the day before your shoot, and when your kids inevitably fall on their face and have a big bruise or graze on their chin I'll magic that away. I'll even help those new bags under your eyes that seemed to come home with the new baby, but what I wont change is the essence of you.

I wont change your body or face shape, I do skin smoothing/softening, but I wont completely remove your wrinkles and your skin will still have texture.

If you have scars or moles or birthmarks, I leave that up to your discretion, they are a part of you after all, 90% of the time the clients ask me to soften scars and birthmarks so they aren't so eye catching, but are still present in your images.

Babies can be crusty, and have flaky skin, Toddlers are more often than not, covered in snot or food and older kids are hard to keep clean (or bruise free) so anything that isn’t permanent, I’ll photoshop out (although if it’s possible I’ll remove it during the shoot).

I’ve even got the skills to swap heads if you’ve got the PERFECT family photo except for one member!
