Editing and Color Matching
  • Editing includes removing or adding objects, people, editing faces (eyes, smiles, etc.), changing backgrounds and foregrounds, color adjustments, merging images, cropping, sharpening, basic color enhancements – vibrancy, toning, etc.
  • Color matching an image to an original piece of artwork.
    • Color matching can take a lot of time, paper, and ink to get the print to look like an original. The color of the light also plays a role in how colors are seen. My studio lights are set at 5000K (kelvin) or average daylight. You will see prints look different when compared between warm tungsten and cool fluorescent lights. The average midday sunlight is between 5000K-6000K.
    • Note: artwork mediums and papers are different than ink and printer paper/canvas and sometimes difficult to obtain a very good color match.
    • Vibrant colors from a painting are not possible when printing on matte papers/canvas. The glossier the paper the more vibrant the colors can become on a print.
    • The color tone of the paper and lights used to view the print will influence the finished result.
    • Color match is performed on a matching paper type to the original or selected by customer.
  • Pricing
    • $25.00 an hour editing/color matching per image
    • Color Matching – indicate a maximum – (Color matching will stop either when the maximum selected is reached or a particularly good color match is achieved)
      • $25.00: Tone, general color zone matching, ok color match
      • $50.00: Better tone and more specific color zone matching – good color match
      • $75.00: Matching more color zones – very good color match
