Michael R.

18 years of hi-end retouching. I've delivered large-scale editing projects for corporate brands, photographers, and agencies across multiple countries — with results that hold up at full resolution and match the visual standards of editorial and commercial production. My core focus: ✅ Corporate headshots & portrait retouching — natural skin, texture-preserving, consistent results across large batches. I understand how headshots work for LinkedIn, press kits, company websites, and personal branding — and I deliver them at a pace that fits real production schedules. ✅ Fashion & beauty retouching — editorial-quality skin work, hair detail, colour harmony. Clean and intentional — never plastic or overprocessed. ✅ Product & brand retouching — colour accuracy, clean backgrounds, shadow work, and visual consistency for e-commerce and advertising campaigns. Worked with brands including Celsius on multi-image product shoots. My workflow is structured and quiet: calibrated monitors, Wacom tablet, Photoshop / Lightroom / Capture One / Camera Raw. I work to your style guide or develop one with you. I use AI tools selectively — where they save time without compromising quality. Clients come back because: • I communicate clearly and respond fast • My retouching is manual, precise, and never looks like a filter • I handle bulk volumes without losing consistency • I understand commercial intent — your images need to work, not just look nice If you're looking for a long-term retouching partner who delivers at a high level without hand-holding — let's talk.
