i wanted to start displaying one of my absolutely - hold on, pandora radio is asking me if i am still listening - absolutely favorite aspects of photography.  it's more on the photoshop side.  retouching.  i love retouching.  simple portrait retouching is cool, but i love fashion/beauty retouching.  the kind you see in the magazine.  we all know that even with all the make-up and stylists and trainers that celebrities have, they still don't look as good as they do without the help of the digital retoucher.  we all have flaws.  it is my job to make those flaws disappear.  and boy, do i enjoy it.  from here on out, you'll see more BEFORE/AFTER blog posts.  here is jean before and after.  and let me just remind everyone...you are beautiful in your 'before' picture.  i'm just intensifying and magnifying your beauty in the 'after' picture.  LOL. 

below is the 'after'/retouched image.  click on the thumbnail (bottom, right) to see the 'before'.  KMD
