Looking for photo enhancement
Discussion
Could anyone recommend a service for enhancing photos?
I want to take some photos of a holiday let and enhance the colours such as change the sky to blue, remove things like gas cylinders, enhance the lighting etc.
I don't have photo editing skills and someone who does this all the time would do a better job than me.

As you haven't yet taken the photos, why don't you just buy a photography book ?
It would give you something to read on holiday and teach you how to frame your shots and adjust your camera settings to do some of the things that you're trying to achieve.
This was the skill in photography long before digital cameras and photo manipulation software came along.

Point the camera away from the gas bottles I want to take some photos of a holiday let and enhance the colours such as change the sky to blue, remove things like gas cylinders, enhance the lighting etc.

Some useful suggestions but will camera settings turn a dismal grey sky to nice and blue?
Most photos in brochures etc are re-touched to enhance them and I would have thought there would be an online service to do this kind of thing.
Re gas bottles, it's not a problem to move them and they will be covered by the time the holiday makers are here but I'm looking for something in the interim. I've been able to frame the shots so they are hidden but that restricts the composition.

Here's 48,000 - I'd suggest most in here do their own.

30 days free trial on Lightroom, watch a youtube tutorial and you can do the lot yourself for free.

You can cut in a blue sky in Photoshop etc but you can't make a dull day sunny. As a starting point you'd really be best off to take the photos on a decent day at a time when the light is coming from the direction you want. Get as much as you can right in camera and save the tarting up, if required, for later - it's easier, faster and also free that way. Re the gas bottles, if they can be moved, them just move them for the photo. It's not sensible to take a photo of something you don't ilke and then try to get rid it later.Most photos in brochures etc are re-touched to enhance them and I would have thought there would be an online service to do this kind of thing.
At a professional level, you'd be surprised at how many photographers don't retouch their own work. Image retouching is definitely a service you can hire.
But you'll struggle to get a quote without having the images first. It's difficult to guess how much work will be required until you've got the image in front of you.
