Perhaps you should look up the definition of misrepresentation.I would never allow you to modify an image like that for me
Paparazi this builder makes custom homes and they’d be perfectly happy to install that landscaping for any buyer. These are not real estate ads where they are selling these specific homes. Besides often the photograph has to be taken before the project is completed or in the winter when the grass is brown. Perhaps you should also consider that retouching photographs is very common in advertising.
agreed entirely. retouching is a HUGE part of any commercial photography, be it for builders, hotels, interiors, etc. Real estate photography is an entirely different type of photography
@goldsteinphoto.i`m curious about how long you work on one of these images?
The most elaborate ones can take several hours. Some of this time is looking for material in my files (trees, lawn, flowers) that can be inserted into the image.
I love the retouching! I am a longtime photographer and retoucher and doing more real estate photography to do something different. I am happy to see that those retouching skills are really going to come in handy! Thanks for sharing your portfolio. It’s inspiring.
