March 12

I do think that images that have been severely airbrushed should be labeled as so. The images spread through out advertisements these days lead girls to believe that these models are "perfect" This is false advertisement, for instance half of the Victoria's Secret models starve themselves, and look nothing like they do in commercials or in ads. When men expect women to look like the models it sets them with unreachable expectations. it's completely unfair to the women of the world.

Le Video Response

Becci Mansion started her (re)touching project after the tsunami that happened in Japan in 2011. She and other volunteers kept finding photos in the wreckage that could be saved. She reached out to other retouchers through Facebook and LinkedIn and asked them to help. Knowing what I know about photo retouching and other fantastic uses of photo shop, I could help people fix certain photo's that have been damaged.
