Bride & Groom Kiss Photo Edit

I have a high-resolution RAW file of a bride and groom leaning in for a kiss, but the moment was caught an instant too soon. I need the gap between them closed so the couple look as though they’re genuinely touching lips—no warping, no tell-tale cloning, just a seamless, in-camera feel. Lighting, fabric texture, hair strands, and background bokeh all need to flow naturally from the original shot, with the end result reading as highly realistic even at 100 % zoom.

The finished image must be supplied as a flattened TIFF in the same colour profile as the RAW. Minor tonal balancing or clean-up is welcome if it helps sell the effect, but please avoid pushing the file toward a stylised look.

I’ll share the RAW via cloud link as soon as we begin. Let me know your turnaround time and feel free to include a couple of close-up wedding retouch examples so I can see your approach.

Key acceptance points:
• Anatomically correct alignment and believable shadows
• No edge halos, ghosting, or cloning patterns
• Image should hold up for large-format printing
