What troubles you when retouching the wedding photos?

Hi guys, we sometimes need do some edits of photos, especially wedding photos for customers. But my wedding photographer friend found it takes much time to retouch wedding photos. I just wonder what troubles you most when touching up the wedding photos for customers? The same problem?😕

Wedding photographer I met recently told he shoots 3-5 rolls of film additionally to mandatory DVD loaded with images (that's what bride and/or aunts usually want). He selects about 30 shots from film scans and normally they are hassle free to print (need none to minimum PP), maybe few touches here or there are needed. This prints are given to couple before they leave to their honeymoon trip. While they are away, digitally captured images are sorted out and then little gnomes sit in front of screens and retouch keepers. When couple returns or soon after that, DVD for aunts and uncles pleasure is passed to them.

Retouch? Arms, Eye bags and old people.

old people... that's a challenge all my friends have never met before. 😀
retouch arms, do you mean slimming the arms? maybe this is a new lesson to me....😉

The secret to shooting weddings is- don't accept any that would require retouching. Think about it....

thanks Patrikjames.😀 this may make photographers' job easier, but personally I think it's a little bit hard to achieve. 😛
