No beauty retouching

Peter Lindbergh strongly influenced me on the idea of producing non beauty retouched images. The make up, styling and natural beauty of the model will showcase a raw, realistic approach to fashion. Resulting in no need for any retouching at all. 

Being a makeup artist, I strongly believe as long as the makeup is of high quality, precise and clean, there is no need to edit or alter this. It's not just about no airbrushing. I feel over retouched images just takes away from the original meaning.


As well as choosing the right model, styling and setting, there will be no need to over retouch. Obviously the image will still be slightly altered, for example the saturation, brightness, contrast and colour balance. There is something quite raw and intruiging with untouched beauty. (Like seen in Peter Lindberghs images of Kate Moss)
