Wedding Retouch Skin and Eyeglasses

I did my first African wedding this past wedding and am just going through the photos now. I want to know if the general rule is to remove any glare in eyeglasses, I have done it on some and others not depending on the size and position of the glare?

The other question is shiny skin, do you retouch every face to remove shiny areas as a norm?

I use LR6 and CS6.

Will do but not all. If the client sees a few they want to use for something like a print, give away or thank you card, we will accommodate along with about 30 to 50 percent of the photos we give them. We will make them aware that glare will happen with glasses on occasion and if its hot like its been, we bring a few smaller towels along and suggest the clients do the same. We will even tell them to wipe off some sweat, if evident, before we shoot if we can (portrait and formal stuff where we are posing). We do about 5 to 6 black weddings a year and would do a lot more if possible. The skin on a black person is so much easier to adjust or fix in any way. For the most part, hardly any touch up is needed.

I don't Photoshop anything much unless requested and potentially paid for. If I did something simple wrong, then maybe, but otherwise no. I wouldn't remove glare, I would avoid creating it where possible. If people are shiny people are shiny.

You can try having people tip their glasses forward to cut down on some glare. ie raise the arms of the glasses above the ears slightly

As Silver-Halide said try to sole this problem before taking photo and it will save you tons of time in post. For me a general rule is to do it on per request bases only.

Other then basic color correction and crop we do not do any additional editing, unless its on one of the images of just the bride and groom even then we stay away from doing to much retouching because it becomes expected for every photo. We do make this a very clear point to all our clients several times and it is in our contract. I do tell all our brides that if they want to print a wall hanging image to let me know which image they plan to use and I will go back in and do any additional editing they would like to have done. I have yet to have anyone come back and request additional editing.

If we screw up I might go deeper into the editing. For example I took a group photo (about 30 people) used rabid fire and took 3-5 shots with each count down, so in total about 15 images of this one group. I was set up on a tripod and ended up with only 1 image where the father of the bride had his eyes open and that image had several other people with eyes closed, so I ended up having to do a head swap, I put that on me because I told the bride I had gotten a good image with everyone smiling and eyes open, and well I didn't so I fixed it.

Shiny skin in shiny skin I dont do anything to fix it, some people are just shiny like that, especially at outdoor weddings in the summer.
