Digital retouching is your friend.
You've got a ton of not-quite-perfect photographs lying around. If they're digital, they're probably snapshot sets from nights out with friends (red-eye nightmares!), trips to the zoo, or hobby photographs that could be punched up a bit to look better. You probably also have a folder full of self portraits you took for profile pictures, or "people shots" in general that just don't flatter their subjects the right way thanks to acne, scars, or a little fat bulge here and there. Or maybe your pile of photos is a physical one, of decades-old portraits of your ancestors and faded family polaroids. Some of those photos are likely torn, covered in tape, creased, scratched, or discolored.

Advanced retouching tecniques allow us to fix all of that. For digital snapshots and portraits, we can enhance and beautify them to create the best look possible, while still retaining the soul of the photo and not making it look fake, manipulated, or "shopped". For older physical photos, if you can scan them, they can be repaired and revitalized.

Snapshot? Portrait? We don't judge.
We approach amateur snapshots the same way we deal with professional portraits. The idea is to make your image look the best it possibly can, and we'll use the same techniques to fix up your amateur shots that we use to beautify glamor photos.

About The Studio
Baranov Studio was established in 2011 as an more specialized offshoot of Baranov Design, in the interest of improving on and preserving the images of those special moments and faces we hold dear. While Baranov Design is now focused on the more corporate and "faceless" side of logos and branding, Baranov Studio is all about the human side, and showing your best face through digital enhancement.

With more than 10 years of experience in Photoshop and graphic design, Baranov Design's founder Ariela Baranov has transformed what began as a hobby into a small business. Ariela's manual photo retouching technique provides clients with careful attention to detail, and a finished product that speaks for itself. For her, your photos are not just a project. She treats each of your images with the same care and dedication she would her own.
