Our Retouching Process

see and know the difference

 

Question:
How does the Wild Field image editing process differ from other photographers and Does it matter?


Answer:
Yes, it matters! Editing is one of the most important elements for a magical final image.

There are many ways to edit a photo and one of the most popular is buying presets or filters and applying it to all the images to get a certain look, then calling it a day.


At Wild Field, we don't use canned solutions. Instead we hand-craft a style for each session using color science and raw image enhancement. We then move on to our professional retouching process, averaging about an hour per image. We edit skin, hair, eyes and smiles leaving you with an image that showcases you at your best while still being natural. No matter what your taste, we can adapt and deliver, while ensuring image quality doesn't degrade.
