WHAT WAS DONE:

• 1. To reveal all hidden detail, the subjects were first selected, and the curves (shadows and highlights adjusted) in Adobe Photoshop.
• 2. To remove skin blemishes, the healing brush tool was then applied.
• 3. To create natural, healthy-looking skin tones, various color samples were made of the subjects's skin, and the airbrush tool was used to fill in color to all the blown-out, highlighted areas.
• 4. To reintroduce the skin's natural highlights, the exposure levels to light were increased.
• 5. Teeth and eyes were whitened in PortraitProfessional, where the Touch-up Brush was also used.
