BEFORE AFTER
That tray and book were too attention grabbing.....
...bringing the focus back to the choice of soft furnishings.
wrinkled fabrics.....
don't let these hold you back from using project images!
Child locks on kitchen cabinet doors...
...gone!
DIshwasher cabinet door outer frame at left has separated from panel....
Invisible joinery!
This display storage unit looks very distorted/ foreshortened...
A much more natural, less "stretched", rendering can be created in computer.
Bright exterior view and reflection in the painting.....
Toning them down returns the viewer's focus to the room.
The child's wall stickers detract from the interior designers' statement....
No problem!
An artist needed to show clients how different prints would look....
...in the same setting: we can drop in artwork with natural lighting effects.
The side table lamp with its yellow colour cast is distracting....
.. a tungsten-free look is often preferred by magazines....
Extreme foreshortening due to close shooting position.....
... can be rendered much more naturally via in-computer techniques.
removing sockets and marks on carpet....
for a much cleaner look.
Trailing cable and sockets in a newbuild....
shouldn't have to detract from the home-stager's additions.
That plant right at the edge of the frame....
...removing it brings the viewer's attention back to the office space.
TV screens are here to stay let's face it.....
Dropping in a copyright-free image: it's important to retain some of the reflections in the glass so that the dropped in image doesn't look obviously "pasted".
Artwork sometimes needs to be replaced:
It's important to keep the effect natural by applying a gradient-masked exposure adjustment across the image and retaining some of the reflections in the glass.
Client-supplied phone camera image, with age-old problem of bright windows ("contre-jour") fooling the camera meter......
...with some careful adjustments the image can be optimised to read so much more clearly. Image © Hilary White
The throw had to go....
We can't always choose the view....
Bring the focus back to the product.
Colours too eye-catching?
... we can selectively replace colour to match Pantone reference colours.

"Feature wall" dropped in digitally, retaining natural shadows
The prints in this corridor were a key design decision: while the window reflections in the frames' glass is natural, they obscured the images:
some careful photoshop work ensured that the message of the image was kept clear.
On a time-critical shoot, it isn't always possible to iron out every crease....
...we can remedy this with a natural-looking result.
Sockets and marks on carpets....
... don't put up with these things!
Have a play! The image below needed some adjustments for the wet patio area, removal of the family photo, smoothening out of the bedsheets and the removal of some colour contamination in walls and ceilings. Finally, the wall art was enhanced.
