I'm a pro commercial photographer based in the US that has extensive experience editing and retouching. I love what I do. I'm responsive, dedicated, detail oriented and have a strong visual eye. The key to retouching is authenticity. Coming from a documentary background into the commercial ad space of lifestyle and portraiture I create images that are real, believable and attract the eye. Video: I work with end to end video editing and post production tools DaVinci Resolve Studio and Boris FX.. Stills and Images: I work within Capture One Pro and Lightroom and Photoshop. I use a pro Wacom pen tablet for detailed cleanup. Having just joined Upwork last month I've delivered above expectations. I'm looking forward to helping you on your projects!
