This image really shows you what a great crop, color correcting, subtle, but needed facial adjustments and retouching can really make an image marketable and stand out! So many clients may not realize how much creativity and thinking outside the box can help deliver an amazing final product. I try to save my clients from…
As for Beauty Retouching, I cannot emphasize enough about, Cropping, Cropping, Cropping. There are many times I retouch an image and it looks gorgeous up close, but when I zoom out, something is wrong. It’s the overall space of the image. It just doesn’t work, even though it may be specifically shot with that frame…
The retouching was a tad heavier than I normally like, but I think it works well with her hair and pose. The right crop makes you look at her beautiful face, sexy shoulders and fabulous hair. I added some warmth to her skin and hair and slightly adjusted her features. All and all…I am very…
“They are simply perfect! Thank you so very much again. I will most definitely be using your services again in the future.” Erika D/Photographer
All this image needed was a fresh crop, nice coloring and natural retouching…that’s all. Simple, affordable and now marketable! It’s not just about photo retouching, there is so much more to an image and it’s potential. The cropping and coloring is just as essential in making your image it’s best.
The pictures I send you always come back so amazing. I love what you do to make the pictures so beautiful. Thank you for keeping the original beauty of the image, yet enhancing the overall look. It doesn’t matter if I send you music or fashion images, the clients are always happy every time. Thanks…
Every client, every photograph and every project is different. Retouching is relative, so communication is key when retouching for my clients.
Skin Retouching naturally can be considered relative for Beauty Retouchers. It’s nice to see skin texture, sometimes even slight flaws for a natural feel, really keeping it real. But every client and every project is different. For this project, though natural retouching was important, it was more about the feeling and glow of the model’s…
Besides being a freelance photo retoucher, I also like to help my client select their strongest images, give them ideas for their project and rescue any image or photo shoot they feel was not salvageable. I have the ability to see potential in images that most professionals cannot see. Whether retouching the right areas, interesting…
Not all skin is the same and they all need different types of retouching to achieve a natural feel. It’s interesting how all the different types of skin complexions usually have their own techniques and tools needed to perfect beautiful and natural retouching. It’s a bit more challenging retouching darker complexions, but I feel I…
Retouching makeup can be fun and challenging. This project was for a hair care company. The model was beautiful, the makeup artist was good and the photographer was talented, but for some odd reason, it didn’t come together well. It was not possible to reshoot, so RA to the rescue! The photographer and client were…
My client shoots mostly fashion and does a beautiful job. I know he expects high end quality retouching. Perfect the images, while leaving it natural. I love all sorts of challenges and having to retouch an already gorgeous image with beautiful lighting can be a challenge in and of itself. I accomplish what he expects…
There are a lot of high-end photo retouchers out there, all with different styles, experience, expertise, personalities and rates. I like to think I offer my clients a superb service for reasonable rates. Besides retouching, customer service is another one of my strengths. I am consistently communicating and consulting my clients along the way, from…
My client needed her images to be naturally retouched. She is a successful model, working throughout the US and she knows what clients want from her age category. I couldn’t agree more. Actually, the older you are in the industry, the more careful you need to be when having your modeling/acting images retouched. It’s all…
Not all photo concepts come out exactly how the client anticipates, so instead of reshooting the concept, photo retouching and color corrections are much more cost and time effective.
