Digital Image Retouching and Art
Why trust your images to me? You need someone with creativity, skill, and the eye to know what a model really needs. I have trained with a former retoucher for Playboy, and the majority of my portfolio images have been retouched by me.
In 2009, I became a gallery exhibited digital artist for my work on the first piece below, titled "Flesh and Blood." The result was not the intent of the photographer, who simply photographed me as a figure study for future reference, and the quality of the image was quite bad. I often go to his photos of me for ideas, and this one stood out to me this time. I turned it into a piece of art that speaks to people in different ways, often reminding women of negative life experiences. If it touches someone in that way, it deserves to be called art.

Model Felicity Rose, David's Bridal Fashion Show, Grant Simpson Photography
I'm particularly proud of this one because the details of her dress were so blown out in the original. The model wanted her hair to look as red as possible, and you can see the successful result - not an easy task against that dark burgundy curtain.

Real Bride, Preggers, Chuggin' a Beer -- I snapped this shot myself
Never let it be said that I don't have a sense of humor. I've protected the real bride's identity due to the pregnant belly and beer. You're looking at a head replacement, new hair over that, recreating that shadow on her face, and then the obvious things. Lots of background work.
