Most of the images that I photo edit, I retouch in some way, before they are released to the public. By cropping or color correcting, lightening or darkening, desaturating or adding grain to match the look of the final film to cleaning up a background or complexion, doing full head or body swaps to convey a better expression and/or composition...the goal is for an image to have the strongest impact.

Below are a few examples with before and after reference. Other examples can be seen on the photo editing page.
