Photo touch-ups?

Anyone know if Sears or JCPenneys portrait studios do touch-ups? 6-wk old pics are a tradition in my family and I was just going to go there. But, Ellie has TERRIBLE infant acne :( it's just cropped up in the last 4-5 days and the pedi says it usually last 6 weeks :( it makes me so sad. I hate for her pics to have a face full of red bumps!!! It's late for me to book an independent photog who can do touchups, so trying to think of other options. Suggestions??

Re: Photo touch-ups?

  • I'm not sure if they do or not.

    Do you have photoshop? If they don't you might be able to do it in there but I don't know enough about PS that I am not sure.

  • Kellie, my photog in Bridgewater I think has a graphic designer that does touchups of pictures. But he also gives you the disk full of images, so you could try to do them youself as well. And I *think* that his charge is $75 for the session and then 50 for the disk. I am not sure how that relates to Sears/JCPenney, etc or if that is more than you wanted to spend. But I will say that I love him and he is great with the littles and will do any number of clothing/scene changes that you want.

    If you don't think Bridgewater is too far - it is not too far from the Ikea we went to. Then let me know and I can get you his number. I know that due to the rain today he was doing indoor sessions, so he might have a slot available for sometime this week.

    Send me a text if you want his info.

  • If you can find someone that sells the CDs with a session, you can use MPIX.com and they will touch up your prints! I would keep asking around in your area. There is bound to be a local photog that has an opening. If you call, and one doesn't have an opening, ask for recommendations for others to contact. I have a list of 5 or 6 that I give out, and I've regularly gotten clients that got my name from one of my photographer friends!

  • Thanks Mel, that is a mega deal from your guy so I'll definitely get in touch for your photog's info just in case I don't find anything closer. (I really want to make an Ikea run anyway, but can't pick up what I want and have Ellie with me, so maybe I can convince Terry to go with me and get picks taken on the same day?! hehe).

    I used to have Photoshop and could do some touchups myself but it was on my old computer and I don't have the disk (had gotten a free copy from school when I was a grad student). DH is starting to get back into some photography stuff so we are considering buying Lightbox (I think that's it) but we're just not good enough to attempt it ourselves yet.

    Emily, thanks for the MPIX recommendation, I will check out printing through them!!
