Renée Fleming Photo Retouching

The album cover to a CD, featuring the celebrated soprano and musical ambassador Renée Fleming, needed a professional studio shot but costs needed to be kept low. A non-studio photograph of Renée taken on the red carpet at an awards ceremony was researched and secured and, with some negotiation, was hired for a fraction of the cost of a studio shot. It was then retouched and airbrushed so that it would be suitable for the album cover which was also designed and set as part of the brief.
