Corporate Portrait Retouching and Image Manipulation

Please ensure your bid clearly outlines the description of the task and your understanding. Failure to do so will result in your bid immediately being rejected. Project Objective: We are looking to create a professional corporate portrait based on the reference image provided. The final image should reflect a polished, well-groomed individual standing near an airplane with a clean, professional background and tone. This image will be used for corporate purposes, so it must convey professionalism and refinement. Source Files: The raw images will be provided if you are successful in the task. A reference image (separately provided) that represents the desired final look is attached for your reference. Specific Requirements: Background Adjustments: Airplane Tail: Retain the brown airplane tail visible in the source images. It should remain prominent, as in the original photo, but ensure that all other distracting background elements (ground equipment, other aircraft, etc.) are either blurred, removed, or minimized. The background should look clean and professional similar to the reference image. Feel free to enhance the sky for a more polished look. Subject Appearance: Hair and Eyes: Retouch the subject's hair to make it appear neat and well-groomed, addressing any messy strands without making it appear overly Photoshopped. The subject’s eyes should be brightened subtly to ensure they appear open and alert. Please avoid any unnatural changes. Hi-Vis Vest: Remove the hi-visibility vest from the subject to create a more formal look, ensuring that the underlying clothing remains professional and clean. General Retouching: Smooth the skin and make minor adjustments to the subject’s appearance to enhance their well-groomed look, but ensure the retouching is subtle and does not look overly manipulated. Lighting and Tone Adjustments: The color tone and lighting should be adjusted to reflect the professionalism of the reference image. Feel free to slightly adjust the shadows, brightness, and contrast to match the lighting of the reference image. Ensure the image looks polished, but maintain the natural outdoor lighting as seen in the original. We want the final result to feel corporate yet not artificial. Cropping and Framing: Align the subject similarly to the reference image in terms of pose, cropping, and angle. The focus should remain on the subject and the airplane tail, with a clean, balanced composition.
