Question Huge favor!
Hi....I have a huge favor to ask of someone...I don't have any post-processing software...and I'm not sure even how to use Photoshop...(I need the dummies guide!) but my sister's birthday is this weekend and I got a great photo of her son giving her a kiss...I want to get it printed big and give to her - but it def needs some touching up - the side of her face....is it possible someone can help me out with this? I can pay....let me know! Thanks so much!
If I need to email the file, I can do so...

Not sure what you are looking for as far as processing.....Im willing to help out.
what are you acutally looking to do? just blemish removal or over all enhancement.....are wanting it to stay pretty much natural out of the camera looking?

I appreciate the offer for help, $50 seems a bit high thought for blemish removal/touch up!

How big are you planning to blow it up.....
I'd say 10 by 14 is the biggest it will go get a bit pixelated after that......

Great to have such a place like DPS for help like this......

I think $50 is ridiculous, unless I misunderstand what you mean by a "professional touch up" as my wife has her own business doing bulk post processing for photographers and she ask between a couple of pence to a few ponds per photo depending on amount and type of work as well as volume.
