“Dodging and burning are steps to take care of mistakes God made in establishing tonal relationships.” – Ansel Adams
At Xploring Light, we take this philosophy seriously. In fashion and beauty photography, what you do after pressing the shutter is as important as what you do before. High‑end skin retouching, tone control, and color work can elevate a good image into a portfolio piece.
This intensive workshop is designed for photographers who want to move beyond basic sliders and presets and build a clean, professional, non‑destructive retouching workflow for fashion and beauty images.
• Fashion, beauty, portrait, and wedding photographers ready to work at a professional level.
• Retouchers and editors who know Photoshop basics and want a structured, repeatable workflow.
• Serious learners who want clarity instead of random tips and tricks.
This is not an entry-level Photoshop class. You must be comfortable with layers and masks.
• Non-destructive workflow from raw to final export.
• Planning a clear, step-by-step retouching process.
• High-end skin smoothing with natural texture.
• Precise dodge & burn for shape and depth.
• Natural contouring for face and body.
• Fixing hot spots and blotchy skin.
• Skin color correction and tone harmony.
• Clean, subtle use of Liquefy.
• Retouching hair and facial hair realistically.
• Perfecting overall tone and color.
• Detailing eyes and lips for impact.
• Smart use of AI tools in a pro workflow.
