Basically I've been wanting for a few months now to start adding reviews to my blog with the aim of helping other photographers decide or not if they should buy certain products which are on the market?
Today something did happening which has now prompted me to start my first review. So here it is my first ever review here on blogger.
The product in question is Portrait Professional and wow this product rocks people. For real, if your a photographer just like me then there is a strong chance that after your photo shoots, you just don't enjoy the next stage, which is of course the Photo Shop side of things with regards to removing blemishes off your subjects.
Why?
Because it takes up far to much of your time & you have a life to live right?
Correct, so this is where this outstanding bit of software does come in. Again it's called Portrait Professional and it is made by a company called Anthropics. What is so beautiful about this software is that it is so very easy to use that you just can not go wrong with it. Removing blemishes in this software takes only a minute, which when I compare to Photo Shop can then take me over an hour or two.
People I'm not talking about a quick round on Photo Shop with the "Spot Remover" tool instead I'm talking about getting your subjects skin to look as if they (your subject) is to be published into glossy magazine. Now I don't consider my-self a Photo Shop expert but at the same time, I don't consider my-self to be a Photo Shop beginner either.
I know that if I was to try and make my subjects skin look like the way it does as it is in Portrait Professional, then I'm telling you from experience people that it's going to take me hours in Photo Shop . But even then I get the feeling that I would of gone for to much "clicky happy" with the "blur tool" and as a result my subject would just look far to false.
With Portrait Professional the removal of most blemishes is as simple as 1, 2, 3, click. Again people that's as simple as 1, 2 & 3. click. If you look at the image that I have uploaded to this blog, then you shall see that it is self portrait of my-self. Wow, how handsome do I look in that final pic? Just look at that kissable skin that I do have, thanks allot Portrait Professional.
Portrait Professional works with this system where the user simply just matches up it's blue lines to the subjects face, you align the blue lines to the following, Eyes, Mouth, Nose, and then the Jaw line. Once you have done this Portrait Professional will then give you a Professional looking image as a result. Not only that but if your not happy with the result that you got from this Portrait Professional process then you can simply select the "touch up" tool brush and then go over the area(s) that you are not 100% happy with.
But here is the best bit, you can get this software for only £30 from their website, but what's even better than that is that you can down load a free trail of this software for free. The only catch is that you can't save your final images produced by the Portrait Professional software.
But again for £30 no Photographer can go wrong with this bit of kit, as it really is another "tool" a Photographer can have access too in his tool bag. But wait it gets even better, Portrait Professional is packed with some other excellent features, but I'm going to keep that as a surprise for when you check the software out.So if you are a Photographer looking to save time from photo shopping and you don't have Portrait Professional installed in your computer, then for real you are missing out on one great bit of software / kit.
