Portrait Professional


Portrait Professional 8 is now available for Macintosh. If you are a portrait photography or if you just want to touch up some portraits of your own, this appears to be the application of choice for taking on such a task. I looked at some of the examples and they look pretty good. Here is what they have to say about it on their web site:

Portrait Professional 8 is new intelligent portrait airbrushing software that has been 'trained' in human beauty. It lets you improve your photos instantly, just by moving sliders. With Portrait Professional, it's incredibly easy and fast to:
Subtly reshape all or any aspect of the face to make it more attractive
Fix skin blemishes such as spots or pimples
Reduce and/or remove wrinkles
Remove grease, sweat or unsightly shine highlights from the skin
Adjust the lighting on the face to make it more flattering
Remove red eye
Whiten teeth and eyes

They have a trial version available which is a 36MB download. The product costs $79.95 for a limited time. Apparently the actual price is $159.95. The site does not mention when the special $79.95 price will expire.

I downloaded the trial version of this software and I was very impressed with how easy and quickly I was able to improve a portrait I had. This software is definitely worth a try. If I was a portrait photography, this would be an easy buy on my list.
