"You can Photoshop that, right?"

14/10/2014

Short answer: NO!

Long answer: It depends. I'm not into the flawless, glamorous, perfectly made up, not-a-hair-out-of-place look. This is not how we go through life. We never look like this. Or at least I never look like this. Not even close.

To me, a photograph is a snapshot of a moment in time. If the image doesn't show what is really there, then what is the point of a photograph? You might as well sit for a painting.

I edit to make images look their best. This includes colour correction, exposure adjustment, cropping, and basically just putting a little bit of shine and polish on them that often isn't there straight out of the camera. As far as editing how you look, I can tweak things that aren't permanent, for example those dark circles from partying too hard the night before (!), that zit that popped up on the worst possible day, or a stray hair that looks completely out of place blowing across your face.

I will not make you thinner/fatter, taller/shorter, younger/older, etc.
I won't change colours if you chose the wrong shirt, I won't do head swaps if your toddler has his face screwed up crying. I photograph life, not fantasy.

What I will do is tell you that you are perfect just the way you are :) There is nobody else in the world exactly like you. So don't ask me to make you look just like everyone else.
