Hi. I’ve had a newborn photosession and the baby did not want to miss a thing! So unfortunately the eyes are open on almost all photos and it’s not the vibe we were going for.
I prepurchased a session pack including retouching and deep photoshopping, and asked the photographer to edit babys eyes closed.
But photographer refuses and says it’s not possible. I am happy with the other edits made, but disappointed with the eyes not being closed.
Do I have to accept the refusal or do you have some ideas on a tool that eases the proces?
I tried googling myself but I haven’t used Photoshop since a random media class in middle school so Idk if it really is that complicated or not. A lot of new tools and AI has been invented since then.
Follow up question:
If I just accept the photos as they are, can you recommend an AI program to help me achieve what I’m going for without losing too much of the resolution?
I wanted to print some of the portraits so the quality needs to be preserved as much as possible.
Thank you.
If there is a similar photo with the eyes closed, it certainly is possible to cut the the eyes out and paste them over in Photoshop.

If they offered “deep photoshoping” as a feature of your package, I would hope this is within their skill set and time budget.
As the eyes are the focus of the photo, it needs to be done well or it will ruin the photo.
Thank you and finally someone who understands where I’m coming from. That I’m not trying to be vain or whatever, but in my eyes the request was in line with something like “one of my kids blinked with one eye half shut, can you fix it?”
But I’ve certainly learnt the limits of Photoshop and I appreciate all the answers on this thread.
