Photoshop & Image Editing Designer for E-commerce

We are looking for an experienced Photoshop / image editing designer to help us with ongoing e-commerce and Amazon-related creative projects. This is not a full-time position. Work will be assigned on a project-by-project basis, but we are looking to build a long-term relationship with a reliable designer who can consistently deliver high-quality work. What kind of work will you be doing? The projects will vary, but typical tasks may include: Product image adjustments: - Adjusting product colors while keeping the background clean and white - For example, making wood or mahogany finishes look slightly warmer and more natural - Maintaining realistic textures, shadows, lighting, and product details Amazon featured / listing image improvements: - Improving existing product graphics - Creating or refining natural-looking reflections and shadows - Replacing or improving product images inside existing compositions - Adjusting typography, spacing, alignment, logos, icons, and other visual elements - Making sure the final image looks polished and professionally designed Editing existing marketing graphics: - Replacing products or visual elements - Adding small design details such as handwritten-style notes, callouts, photos, badges, logos, or other elements - Recreating or modifying graphics when the original editable file is not available - Matching the existing design style as closely as possible In many cases, we will not have the original PSD or editable source files, so you should be comfortable working from JPG/PNG/reference images and reconstructing elements when necessary. Very important: the final result must look natural! We are open to the use of AI tools as part of your workflow, but the finished work must not look AI-generated. We care about details such as: - Natural lighting and reflections - Realistic shadows - Accurate product proportions - Clean edges and masking - Consistent perspective - Natural textures - Correct typography and spacing - No obvious AI artifacts - No distorted products, logos, text, hands, objects, or backgrounds The goal is for the final creative to look like it was produced by an experienced commercial designer/retoucher. What we are looking for: You should have: - Strong Adobe Photoshop skills - Excellent photo manipulation and retouching skills - Experience with product and e-commerce imagery - Good attention to small visual details - Ability to recreate or modify designs without always having the original source files - Ability to follow detailed feedback and make precise revisions - Good communication and reliable turnaround times Experience creating Amazon listing images, A+ Content, e-commerce product graphics, or advertising creatives is a strong plus. When applying Please include: - A portfolio with your best Photoshop / photo manipulation / e-commerce work - Examples of before-and-after edits, if available - Any Amazon listing or product image work you have done - Your typical turnaround time for small image-editing projects - Your hourly rate or preferred project-based rate Please start your application with the word “NATURAL” so we know you have read the full description. We have multiple projects coming up and would like to find someone we can continue working with long term on a flexible, project-based basis.
