Open Eyes & Polish Grad Photo
Budget: $30 – $250 CAD
My favourite graduation shot caught me squinting into the sun, so I need a careful edit that leaves me looking alert, confident and job-ready. The main fix is to open my eyes naturally—no surreal widening, just the look I would have had if the sun weren’t in my face.
Beyond that, give the image a moderate overall polish: even out skin tone, smooth minor texture issues and balance the colour so it feels crisp but still true to life. I don’t need heavy facial reshaping or a dramatic background swap—subtle, professional enhancement is the goal so I can use this as a LinkedIn profile picture.
You’re free to work in Photoshop, Lightroom or your preferred retouching software as long as the final JPEG is high-resolution and ready for social-media cropping. Please include a brief note on what you adjusted so I can compare before-and-after versions.
