Portrait: hair cutouts from a specialist

Flowing curls, fine strands, backlight: hair is the hardest edge when cutting out. Fotowerker makes the hair cutout a speciality.

Hair cutouts and portrait retouching

In portraits, the edge decides the result. Hair has no fixed outline, it is fine, semi-transparent and picks up the colour of the background. A quickly made selection therefore soon looks cut out.

Fotowerker offers the hair cutout from a specialist. You tell us how the portrait should look, and we implement it exactly that way.

How an order works

You send the brief
Describe which background you want and how natural the hair should look.
The effort is assessed
Fine, flowing hair in front of a busy background takes more work than smooth hairstyles in front of a plain backdrop.
Implementation and delivery
The production team edits the portrait exactly as you described it.

Prices

For portraits, the effort depends mainly on the hair, the background and the number of images. We do not have a standard price list but calculate the price exactly based on effort. This way every customer only pays what is necessary. More under Prices.
