About this episode
Photo editing is happening everywhere, all the time, whether you like it or not. But should there be any limits to it? Photographer and natural retoucher Zoe Noble talks about revealing a deeper truth through retouching, and senior lecturer Adam Wiseman explains how we’ve been manipulating images for longer than you think. Picsart executive creative director Shachar Aylon and photographer Brittabug discuss the ethics of photo editing in a body positive age.
