Does anyone have any experience using Portrait Pro ?
Is it as good as the ads depict it ?
Thanks for reading.

I have mixed emotions about things like Portrait Pro. During my time as a civilian USAF photographer it was always stressed to not misrepresent the images we were producing. Portrait Pro doesn't misrepresent but it does create/alter an image, sometimes significantly.
When I was in high school the senior portraits were taken on black and white 4x5 sheet film. We did some retouching to flatter the subject but NOT do a makeover.
I would have liked to have had this in the photo studio to flatter our clients but it would be very easy to go overboard with this and produce an image that is no longer representative of the subject.
I think for advertising this is a tremendous tool.

I use it on all of my portraits - It work's great. It is straight forward and produces great results. As with any software you need to keep it looking natural, unless other wise directed by the client.
