Overview

Exploring image editing through composition, colour, and retouching

A collection of image editing work spanning surreal composites, colour grading, retouching, sky replacement, black and white treatment and painterly effects.

The Challenge

Each image required a different editing solution, from combining multiple sources to refining colour, light, and detail while keeping the final result visually convincing.

The Approach

Working in Photoshop, each piece was developed through masking, blending, colour matching, tonal adjustments and retouching, adapting the technique to the needs of each image.
