This week we were asked by a prominent studio to remove two people from a photograph, why? well we never ask we just get on with the job. This particular image posed some very challenging work, the lady on the left was covering the steps of the church and with no other photograph available with the steps in full view we had to construct the steps from small pieces, just like a jigsaw. The removal of the gentleman on the right was fairly easy to achieve, the tree on the left was transferred and flipped from the left side to cover him. Last of all we had to move the brides mother a little closer to the bride as the gap looked too obvious. This was achieve by creating a keypath then cutting the lady out, she was then positioned a little closer to the bride. To finish we aged some of the brick work. a quick colour adjustment and there you have it. When you have to create data ( Paint) with a photograph it can be very challenging, the results are not always perfect but overall acceptable to most people. This photograph is not perfect I would have liked to reposition the trio a little more central to the church doors, but the cost of time and budget was prohibitive. Please bare in mind this kind of work is time demanding hence the cost of such invasive work can be expensive. This particular image was worked on for over an hour.
If you have any photograph that you would like adjusting or repaired, please call us you will be amazed at what can be achieved, it also makes it much easier if we can see the original photograph, we would be far better placed to give you a costing.
