Photo Retouching

A picture is worth a thousand words … and maybe a thousand dollars worth of business.

You can go nuts trying to train a squirrel to hold a flower. Keep your sanity and have Virtual Edge Communications do their tricks with the computer.

This was a live white squirrel and real flowers.

Consider purchasing a DIGITAL EXACT copy of the FINAL HI-RES photo at 300 DPI (JPG) – for an additional fee. (not included with standard packages)
Digital files maybe kept on our storage devices for a limited time and may be deleted without notice after services are rendered and paid in full. Customers who purchased digital files are recommended to have many copies on disk, USB and/or cloud based storage. Digital computer files do not fade or disappear like old negatives or prints. Making prints from-the high res digital files will allow the highest quality image to be printed. Sharing this file means family or friends can look after getting their own prints with their own money, saving you $$$. Using output services such as Walmart, drug stores or home printers will vary in quality.
PLEASE NOTE: We are NOT allowed to copy photographs that have a copyright stamp or symbol on them, such as school photos, team photos, magazines, newspapers, etc. If you have a photo with a stamp on the back please contact the listed person or company for reprints. If the photographer has passed away or the company is out of business we would have to review the situation. Anyone with an original negative film will be considered the lawful owner of the image. Any prints or digital files are your property to do with as you wish, once paid in full. Any future reprints would have to be ordered by you or have your approval in writing.
We need the photo supplied loose -- not framed or behind glass. Photos larger than 8.5" x 11" will have to copied using a camera on a tripod as opposed to scanning on a high resolution flatbed scanner. These will have a higher cost to digitize the image as it is considered a photography service, not a scanning service.
We reserve the right to refuse to copy obscene, offensive, unlawful or objectionable materials. Please contact us for any concerns you may have.

Below is a live squirrel wearing sunglasses, holding a Lucky Coin® with text and logo added to the image. Some people think this squirrel was actually wearing sunglasses — who cares — it helps sell the product and you will remember seeing this photo.

A new dramatic sky and a new green lawn were added to the photograph below. The top left sky matches the grey of the siding. The above photograph was taken in the fall on an overcast day. The sky shown below was taken at 5:35 a.m. above a local London Ontario donut shop. The green grass was taken from a photo of a multi-million dollar estate on the edge of Lake Simcoe.

The street light in the background was removed. Spotlight effect with lens flare was added to simulate a big rock concert. The name of the band was overlaid on bottom with music symbols. Outer border of image with drop shadow was added. This image was used extensively by the group for promotion.
