Retouching Your Headshots

Everyone wants to look their best in their professional headshots. With the editing tools available to photographers, the question comes up – how much retouching should a headshot receive?

It’s no secret that we can take the average person and Photoshop them into an unrecognizable, fabricated supermodel. We can snip and tuck, liquify, contour, and remove or add just about anything to your image. But how much retouching is too much?

There is a fine line we walk every time we begin retouching our images. Below are some photos that we’ve retouched. The before image is straight out of the camera with no retouching. The after image has LKP Studio retouching service applied.

Some photographers choose to take things too far – you’ve all seen images like this. The person looks like they have no pores, their pupils are glowing, and every line on their face has miraculously vanished. Imagine the shock when they show up for their job interview!

You can trust LKP Studio to capture you in your best light and provide professional retouching that looks just right. And if you want any changes to your retouched image, just let us know. We’re not happy until you’re happy!

What our Clients are saying

I loved working with Leonard, he’s very kind and professional. Helps you feel comfortable right away and has all the equipment and necessary needs at his studio, I loved how he had a monitor that would show all the photos

Leonard loves his work and it shows. He makes you really comfortable and takes his time. I got many, many shots to choose from, and was able to select a bunch that I really wanted from the shoot. His studio is well-lit and provides easy parking. All around a great experience. Highly recommended!

I did a group photoshoot with Leonard! He was very professional and had great customer service. A lot of us were amateurs in front of the camera but he made us feel very comfortable. I chose the photos I liked and had a quick turn around with the edits. I will definitely shoot with him again when I’m in the Atlanta area.

LKP studio is a very professional and experienced company. You will feel confident in yourself and photographer getting the best results. I will most definitely hire him again for my headshots/photoshoot. Keep up the great work!

I had an amazing experience with LKP Studio! The photos were absolutely beautiful and my studio experience was very professional. The photographer is very kind and helped me to feel very comfortable and beautiful during my photoshoot.

I hired LKP Studio to capture our proposal in Piedmont Park. He did an awesome job! Was very polite and did a great job of putting us in various poses after the proposal which resulted in some great shots. Overall they came out better than I was hoping.

I met Leonard through my girlfriend, who highly recommended him as a photographer. As a model, I’ve gotten to work with a few photographers, but none were as energetic and enthusiastic as Leonard was. It really helped me get as a model feel comfortable and have the confidence to get the look he wanted. He knows what he wants, he has the patience to get the look he wants, and then executes it in a timely manner. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great photography session.

The owner and founder of this establishment was excellent!!!! He was well prepared , prompt , and very professional! I recommend him to anyone looking to capture life’s moments! Thank you LKP, I will certainly be working with you again in the very near future!
