Professional Portrait Enhancement & Background Expansion
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I have a set of portrait shots that need to look far more polished and magazine-ready. The main goals are to apply subtle yet effective photo enhancing, expand the visible background so the composition feels roomier, and give everything a clean, studio-like finish.
What I’m after:
• Each portrait should keep realistic skin texture while benefiting from gentle retouching—think refined smoothing, balanced color, and discreet blemish removal.
• The background needs to be digitally extended on all sides without obvious cloning seams or quality loss. It should read as a seamless studio backdrop, matching the original light fall-off and depth of field.
• Final files must be delivered in high-resolution JPEG (sRGB) plus layered PSD so I can make minor tweaks if needed.
Photoshop or an equivalent pro-grade editor is fine, as long as the end result withstands close scrutiny when printed at large format. Let me know how many images you can comfortably turn around and your expected timeline; I’d prefer a quick preview of one file before proceeding with the full batch.
