Retouching Company Announces New Low-Light Image Processing Capabilities

(PRLEAP.COM) Photo retouching company 399Retouch.com announces its acquisition of new image-enhancement software. The new software will be used to pre-process photographs taken in low-light conditions, which will provide a better starting point for Photoshop(R) retouching and consequent better results. This additional processing will be provided at no additional cost to clients.

399Retouch.com performs cosmetic retouching of digital images, as well as restoration services for damaged photographs. Its clients include professional and amateur photographers, professional models, actors, authors and the general public. Individuals request retouching of photographs to be used for a variety of purposes, including holiday cards and submission to dating websites.

According to a representative of the company, "We are pleased to extend our capability to enhance digital photographs that are underexposed and too dark. Often these photos have colored speckles which are very difficult to eliminate using standard retouching techniques. Our new software evaluates each underexposed image, determines the extent of this ‘digital noise,’ and generates a filter pattern to remove it. It’s just amazing to watch it work."

With the approach of the winter holiday season, the company expects an influx of digital snapshots taken under low-lighting conditions. These may include night-time sing-alongs, caroling and Christmas eve and morning package-unwrapping. The older software was ill-equipped to deal with digital noise, so the new capability will be welcomed by the retouching staff and clients alike.

Abernathy noted that the new software will increase the quality of retouched photos, and at no increase in cost to clients.
