Before and after comparison of a retouched portrait

— Photo retouching

Retouching you can't see in the photo

Good retouching doesn't mean plastic skin and fake colour. Good retouching is when the viewer simply thinks: this image just looks right.

What I can help with

Refining portraits, cleaning up product photography, colour correction and matching across sets, and digitally restoring old, damaged family photographs.

Is this the right fit for you?

Who it is for

Photographers, studios, online shops and agencies who outsource post-production.

The problem it solves

Retouching eats the time you need for shooting and sales, and in-house edits drift in style across a batch.

What we provide

An agreed style reference, a test image before larger batches, layered and traceable editing, consistent batch processing.

What you end up with

Delivery-ready images with a uniform look — in your style, not a generic preset.

What I take on

  • Portrait retouching: skin, hair and light, kept natural
  • Product retouching: dust, scratches, reflections removed
  • Colour correction and matching across a whole set
  • Background cleanup or replacement
  • Restoration of old photos: scratches, tears, fading
  • Careful colourisation of black-and-white images (on request)

Why trust me with it

A restrained hand

I don't reshape people. I bring out what is already in the frame.

Consistent sets

Even across large volumes the colour and character stay the same.

Rescuing old images

Damaged, faded family photos become viewable and printable again.

Frequently asked questions

Do you only retouch your own photos?

No — I take images from any source.

What does it cost?

It depends on the condition and the work needed; I quote from a sample image.

What file should I send?

The best quality available: RAW or high-resolution JPG; for old photos, a good scan.

How long does it take?

A few days for a single image; sets depend on volume.
