Post-Processing

Color Correction: Adjusting the colors in an image to make them appear more accurate or vibrant.

Exposure Adjustment: Controlling the brightness and contrast of an image to make it more visually appealing.

Cropping: Removing unwanted parts of an image to improve composition.

Sharpening: Enhancing the clarity of an image to make it appear sharper.

White Balance: Adjusting the color temperature of an image to correct for different light sources.

Contrast Enhancement: Increasing the difference between light and dark areas of an image to make it more dynamic.

Clarity Adjustment: Increasing the level of detail in an image to make it appear more defined.

Saturation Adjustment: Adjusting the intensity of colors in an image to make it appear more vivid.

Noise Reduction: Reducing the amount of grain or "noise" in an image to make it appear smoother.

Vignette: Creating a darkening effect around the edges of an image to draw focus to the center.

Lens Correction: Adjusting for distortion, chromatic aberration, or other lens-specific issues.

Spot Removal: Removing unwanted blemishes or distractions from an image.

Dodge and Burn: Adjusting the exposure of specific areas in an image to make them appear brighter or darker.

Texture Enhancement: Enhancing the texture or detail in specific areas of an image to add depth.

Tone Mapping: Reducing the contrast in an image to bring out more detail in the highlights and shadows.

HDR Merging: Combining multiple images with different exposures to create a high dynamic range image.

Gradient Filters: Applying multiple adjustments to specific areas of an image.

Black and White Conversion: Converting a color image to black and white for a more classic or dramatic look.

Skin Retouching: Applying subtle adjustments to an image to improve skin tone and texture.

Final Image Export: Preparing the image for publication or printing, including resizing, sharpening, and saving in the appropriate format.

Cropping: Cropping is a type of post-processing that involves removing unwanted elements from an image by cropping an image in a specific way.

Color Adjustment: Color adjustment is a type of post-processing that involves adjusting the color of an image based on personal preferences or to make the image look more appealing to the viewer.

Exposure Correction: Exposure correction is the process of adjusting how bright or dark an image is by controlling the amount of light that is allowed into the camera during the exposure.

Contrast Boosting: Contrast boosting is a type of post-processing that involves an adjustment in the contrast of an image, adding more differentiation between the darkest and lightest parts of the image to create a more vibrant picture.

Saturation Enhancement: Saturation enhancement involves increasing the color intensity of the food items in a photograph, making the colors pop and more vibrant.

Sharpness Adjustment: Sharpness adjustment is the process of adjusting the clarity and focus of an image by removing any sort of blurred or hazy look.

Noise Reduction: Noise reduction is a type of post-processing that involves removing noise or unwanted graininess from an image.

Removal of unwanted elements: Sometimes it’s necessary to remove shadows, unwanted objects or reflection from plates and cutlery that can distract from the food.

Background modification: Sometimes it may be necessary to swap out a background or darken the background to bring out a more defined subject.

Tone Mapping: Tone mapping is the process of converting raw data or an HDR image into an image that can be easily viewed on most devices.

Perspective Correction: Perspective correction is the process of correcting any linear distortions in an image, in order to depict the image accurately from a visual point of view.

Gaussian blur: Gaussian blur is a post-processing effect that provides a softly focused, blurred background to the photograph.

Vignette: Vignette is a type of post-processing that adds a dark-looking border to an image to highlight the center of the photo.

HDR fusion: HDR Fusion involves combining two or more separate exposures of an image in order to create an image with more detail and contrast.

Black and white conversion: Black and white conversion is a type of post-processing that converts an image to black and white in order to create a more dramatic effect.

Distortion correction: Distortion correction is the process of adjusting and correcting any distortion created by the camera lens.
