What Portrait Photographers Should Never Retouch asks a question: when does improving an image become changing the person?In this episode of The Camera Shake Photography Podcast, Kersten speaks with Lithuanian portrait photographer and RetouchLab founder Skaistė Gulbinaitė about natural portrait retouching, client confidence and creating photographs that still feel authentic.Skaistė explains why many people dislike photographs of themselves, how phone cameras and beauty filters can distort self-image, and why trust begins long before Photoshop. She shares practical photography advice for directing nervous clients, maintaining flow during a portrait session and using posing, lighting and camera angles instead of reshaping bodies in post-production.The conversation also explores skin retouching, scars, wrinkles, commercial beauty photography and the ethical line between polishing a portrait and erasing someone’s identity. Skaistė reveals how repetitive editing inspired her to build RetouchLab, why photographers should keep creative control when using AI, and what she learned from leaving medical school to pursue art and build a photography business.Whether you work in photography, videography or visual content creation, this thoughtful conversation will help you create better client experiences and more honest images.Subscribe for more conversations about photography, creative careers and the business behind the camera.#photography #portraitphotography #SkaisteGulbinaite #CameraShakePodcast******************************************************************Get Your CAMERA SHAKE MERCH: https://www.kerstenluts.com/camerashake-merch******************************************************************SUPPORT THE PODCAST: www.buymeacoffee.com/camerashake******************************************************************JOIN THE CAMERA SHAKE COMMUNITY for the latest news and some behind the scenes insights: www.camerashakepodcast.com ******************************************************************Check out our sponsor: www.platypod.com******************************************************************THIS WEEK’S LINKS:CONNECT WITH SKAISTE GULBINAITESkaistė’s photography Instagram: @skaistegulbephotoRetouchLab Instagram: @tryretouchlabRetouchLab website: tryretouchlab.comJOIN THE CAMERA SHAKE COMMUNITY for the latest news and some behind the scenes insights: www.camerashakepodcast.com ======================================CAMERA SHAKE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE:https://www.youtube.com/camerashakeFULL EPISODE 326 ‘What Portrait Photographers Should Never Retouch with SKAISTE GULBINAITE’ IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON: YouTube - https://youtu.be/l_Djm-FmD00Apple Podcasts - https://apple.co/2Y2Lmfm Spotify - https://spoti.fi/304sm2G ======================================FOLLOW US ONInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/camerashakepodcast/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/camerashakepodcastX: https://twitter.com/ShakeCameraKersten’s website: www.kerstenluts.comKersten on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kerstenluts/https://www.instagram.com/threeheadsinarow/ Hosted on Acast.
