And that is exactly why I export all of my renders as 2D images, as I do finish them up in Photoshop. For over five years I have done all of my visualizations in Photoshop alone, but the world moves on, and while I still use PS a lot for composities, the time has come to graduate to something more photo-realistic if that makes any sense to you.
Compositing when the images sent to you were all taken at different angles can be quite a challenge as well. Puppet warp not withstanding. In addition, making the changes at the drop of a hat, because the client wants to see the room from a different angle is impossible without a 3D image to start out with. And should they want to see that, it would mean having to export the image again from SU at a different angle and then rework the lighting etc., once more in PS. Seems to me like a lot of extra work for no reason.
See samples which are the original picture I was sent, and then what I was able to do with it in Photoshop alone. Also bear in mind, that while I would like to do something "pretty" my boss may not want it it to look just "pretty." He is actually quite fanatical about getting the lighting to look exactly as it will during the actual event. It is not like an architectural render where they can put it pretty flowering trees and shrubs that may never actually appear exactly like that once the building has been completed, but looked great in the render.
