I am a photographer and professional retoucher specializing in natural, refined post-production for portrait, beauty, fashion, product, lifestyle, and editorial photography. I have a strong eye for color, light, skin tones, texture, and detail. My approach is to enhance an image without making it look over-processed - preserving natural skin texture, accurate colors, and the character of the original photograph. My work includes both photography and professional post-production, from subtle corrections and clean-up to polished editorial and commercial retouching. What I can help you with: - Professional photo retouching and post-production - Portrait, beauty, and natural skin retouching - Product and jewelry retouching - Fashion, lifestyle, and editorial image editing - Color correction and color grading - Exposure, white balance, and tonal adjustments - Background clean-up and object removal - Creating consistent color and lighting across complete image sets - Preparing final images for web, e-commerce, social media, and print - Photography and creative production I work primarily with Adobe Photoshop and Capture One and combine careful manual retouching with efficient professional workflows. My background in photography helps me approach retouching from a photographer’s perspective -understanding light, lenses, skin, materials, composition, and how an image should naturally look. I value clear communication, attention to detail, and reliable delivery. Whether you need a single carefully retouched image or a consistent set for a campaign, e-commerce store, editorial, or personal project, my goal is to deliver polished work that still feels authentic.
