What is a photo enhancement?
Photo enhancement services for retouching, restoration, color correction, contrast enhancement and noise reduction to lift the general quality of a photo.
What are the reasons of your valuable images looking bad?
- It could be mistakes made by the photographer during the shoot
- Camera errors such as dust on the lens
- Poor shooting conditions that cause elements such as blur
- Unusable contrast and color defects
- High noise from images shot at night
But don’t delete those images just yet, Soft Focus can help save your work with our photo enhancement services.
If the photo composition itself doesn’t satisfy you, have a look at our high-end photo editing or basic photo retouching services. Our experienced photo editors can help modify your photos in a way that was not possible in the shoot itself or if the photos cannot be taken again due to budget costs etc. With our range of photo editing services, we can help you with both the base photo correction such as noise removal and with complex image recovery at an excellent quality.
Basic photo correction
Red eye removal, noise reduction, overall contrast and brightness enhancement, sharpening, as well as a stylistic colour grade.
Advanced photo enhancement
Local color and contrast enhancement, photomontage if needed. Removal of heavy noise and dust particles, especially visible on photographs such as those shot underwater
Do you have an extremely bad image for enhancement? Please, note that some limits of digital photo enhancement exist. We cannot sharp extremely blurred photos and we cannot recover details on smoothed photos. We cannot enlarge small pictures, especially of low quality. Detail recovery in extremely dark or absolutely white sections of photos is not possible. However, please send through your photos for an evaluation, allowing us to estimate what will be possible and what won’t, before quoting you.
Photo Colour Correction
In many situations, with both professionals and ameteur photographers, photos are discolored when photos are taken in rooms with filament bulbs, underwater or incorrect setting on the camera itself. These elements cause unpleasant colors and incorrect white balance settings within the photograph. These colour imperfections can however be overcome with colour correction editing.
Colour correction is an important pre-press stage and is closely associated with making good looking prints and web albums. Soft Focus provides colour correction to both RAW and flattened files types such as tiff and jpeg. We provide color correction services of industry quality either as a separate service or combined together with product retouching or high end photo editing.
Color enhancement is a very important step for successful printing and web publishing. This includes temperature adjustments, skin tone adjustment, exposure, contrast and brightness correction, saturation, highlights and shadow balance control.
We provide professional profile conversions, such as RGB to CMYK, correct damaged amateur portraits, and landscape photos. Colour correction can be done in RAW to any professional photos taken by CANON, NIKON, OLYMPUS and other cameras using the file format (CR2, NEF). Our color correction services are oriented both for single picture enhancing and for mass professional prepress.
