What’s the main differences between retouching celebrities and retouching fashion images?
First of all, boundaries are fluid as we deal increasingly with models who have become celebrities or celebrities being used as models. Whenever a specific person is used for a campaign there needs to be a recognition factor so retouching has to focus on keeping images natural and true to the source. It is more complicated retouching celebrities/celebrity models as both stylistic and legal pitfalls need avoiding. In fashion retouching, there are less restrictions, you can focus more on doing what the photographer envisions.
