RETOUCH WIZARDRY
As I honed my skills with photoshop, I expanded from retouching beauty shots to other types of images.

This image was used for a dance flyer for Andrea Beeman. The doors needed to be removed to give more of a stage like feel to the image.

This image was used for a flyer for Andrea Beeman. Again, some elements needed to be removed to convince the viewer that this is on a stage.
