I’m a professional Photo Retoucher and Color Grading Specialist with a strong focus on natural, editorial-style portrait retouching. I work with photographers, brands, and creatives who want their images enhanced without losing texture, realism, or identity. My workflow is based on advanced, non-destructive retouching techniques, including corrective dodge & burn, allowing me to remove blemishes, even skin tone, and refine details while preserving natural skin texture. I avoid over-processing and plastic skin. My goal is clean, timeless, and commercial-ready results. Alongside retouching, I offer professional color grading and color correction, specializing in skin-safe color grading, tonal consistency, and cohesive color palettes. My grading style is subtle and editorial, designed to protect skin tones, maintain accurate colors, and ensure images look consistent across full photo sets, campaigns, or social media feeds. What I specialize in: • Portrait retouching (natural & editorial) • Advanced dodge & burn retouching • Skin retouching with texture preservation • Color correction & professional color grading • Editorial & commercial photo retouching • Lightroom & Photoshop photo editing • Photographer workflow support & batch consistency I’m often trusted by photographers to handle images that require precision, restraint, and a trained eye, especially when consistency and realism matter more than trends. If you’re looking for a reliable photo editor or retoucher who understands light, skin, tone, color and who treats your images with care, I’d be happy to work with you! Let’s create images that feel polished, natural, and professional.
