Photo retouching isn’t just for portraits. Retouching is almost always necessary for any picture that’s going to be used in a newsletter, an annual report, or any similar business publication, in print or online. Properly edited pictures always make your project look more professional.
Spellcheck exists in almost all software. But there’s no “photo check” yet. Before you release a business publication, it’s best to make sure that your photos have been properly prepped.
A business conference often yields a couple hundred or more photos. Generally it’s not worth the cost to retouch all of them. But you should retouch the handful of conference photos that will be used on your web site or in any business publication.
Photo retouching, like proper spelling and good grammar, helps you present a professional image.
