Do ethics have a place in software reviews? My perspective on full-body retouching is that the artists who have a “need” to do it-and will take the time to do it well-already know how to do it in Photoshop, and don’t really need a dedicated piece of software to guide them along they’ll move bit-by-bit making intelligent, anatomy-based decisions.
Portraitpro 15 review skin#
Somehow, there’s more of an ethical issue for me with body contour than with skin smoothing. PortraitPro Body may eliminate the need to hire a professional retoucher for small corrections like these. Use it to correct posture, to improve symmetry, or to save an otherwise great shot by adjusting a flaw in the subject’s pose. Conversely, if you can be trusted to use it judiciously, all power to you, go for it. It came in super handy when I wanted to quickly composite my daughter into a shot of her Barbie Princess dolls: Nip in that waist! Elongate those legs! Done! Because the frivolity of the project allowed me to embrace the extreme retouching capabilities, it was awesome and guilt-free. If you routinely have clients who ask to be morphed into perfection and you’re not a master of Photoshop, then you’ll find PortraitPro Body extremely useful. Somehow the chances of this seem multiplied with full-body manipulation. As is always the case with retouching software, it’s far too easy to take it too far and get over-retouched, unrealistic results. Yet, I’ve struggled regarding what to say about PortraitPro Body. As with the original PortraitPro, it’s also a ton of fun to use. Then, there are additional Liquify-like tools for further sculpting, and a pared-down version of its parent-program’s facial corrections.

Upon opening an image, you follow simple prompts to mark up the body structure/skeleton of your subject and then use sliders to adjust bodies from head to toe-I marvel at the algorithms that must underlie each slider. And it’s an impressive piece of software. I previously reviewed PortraitPro 12 and 15 for Photoshop User and had high praise for both versions, so I had high expectations for PortraitPro Body.
