PORTRAIT / COLOR GRADING / RETOUCH

Portrait retouching: color grading and photo editing

Color correction and retouching of portrait shots — from studio portraits to looks emphasizing natural skin and fabric texture.

Challenge

Nastya ordered a studio portrait photoshoot — light dress, accessories, different looks. The raw frames needed professional editing: white balance correction, color grading for a unified warm tone, skin retouching with texture preservation, and light/background work for the final delivery.

Solution

Each frame was processed individually: color balance and exposure alignment, delicate skin retouching (preserving pores and texture), natural light and tonal depth enhancement, and background cleanup for a clean composition. The result is a portrait series in a unified style from a studio shot to the boots look.

Design process

Three frames from the series — before and after editing comparison
