How Much is too Much? - 02-22-2009, 10:57 AM


I shot a body parts model a few weeks ago, and was wondering how much retouching is to much? She is planning to submit to an agency as a foot model, so how "skin smoothing" is going to be to much?

Why not submit both smoothed and unretouched so the agency can see her potential both ways?...Ben

The client doesn't want to hire one foot, but have a different looking foot show up for the shoot. I would say minimal skin smoothing.
