On hot, sunny days like today I am still often found in a nearly completely dark room editing away images for my Clients. Yes it means I constantly look pasty all year round (I'm hoping I'll age gorgeously because of this!!) but it's a trade off I'm will to take to make sure that my 85% perfect images come up to the 100% that my Clients are looking for.

You may be wondering why it's worth spending all that time perfecting each and every image. After all, isn't the goal of photography to capture the moment as it is? While that may be true in some cases, when it comes to headshots, the editing process can make a world of difference in the final product.

When it comes to marketing your business, a good headshot can make a lasting impression and set you apart from your competition. A well-edited headshot can convey professionalism, confidence, and personality, helping to attract potential clients and customers. In today's digital age, where first impressions are often made online, having a strong, polished headshot can make all the difference and going that extra mile makes you stand out.

Editing allows me to enhance the overall quality of the image, correcting any imperfections in lighting, colour balance, composition, skin tone etc. By taking a good photo and making it great through editing, I ensure that all of my clients are presented in the best possible light, helping to boosting their confidence, their business and making a positive impact on viewers surveying their business.

In conclusion, spending time editing headshots is not just about making the image look pretty, it's about creating a strong, compelling image that will help you stand out in a competitive market. So next time you're tempted to have your images 'as is', remember the impact that a well-edited headshot can have on your business and it's overall success.

Back into the dark I go...
