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.
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.
How it works
- Send the image — One sample is enough for me to judge the work required.
- Quote — You get a concrete price and deadline before anything starts.
- Work and review — After the first version there's room for a revision round.
- Delivery — High-resolution, print-ready files.
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.
