Photo enhancement simply means enhancing the existing qualities of the photo image. For example, enhancement means brightening and refreshing colors, when they're faded, sharpening a slightly blurred image, or smoothing an image to remove slight graininess due to texture present on the original paper. It can mean color-correcting the
overall color of a water or light-damaged image, or parts of the image most affected by that kind of damage. Enhancement of certain types of older "instant" photographs, which then were printed on a honeycomb textured paper, is time-consuming, and removal of the texture will incur additional time-charges to the client. In such cases, it is simpler to leave the texture - it was present on the original, anyway - and only correct damage to the image or colors in the image. Colorization of highly texturized images is generally possible, but may incur additional time-related charges.
