Photographers don't neccessarily make good retouchers but I've learned the two professions side by side and am equally experienced in both skills. I have an excellent eye for colour and detail, and follow a brief to the last detail. I am also experienced at compositing and creative work. I've been retouching for approximately 4 years now and have switched from working full time to working as a freelancer.

 

I have and/or currently work(ed) for:

1) an established online luxury retailer retouching images of well known designer brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Michael Kors, Chloe and Gucci. Work entails garment retouching, cutting out, colour matching to physical garment using lightboxes, structural work, detail work, mannequin cleaning.

 

2) Spring Studios in Kentish Town who provide a multitude of different services for various companies. Their clients include M&S, House of Fraser, Solange Azagury Partridge, and primarily ecommerce and fashion retouching work. Work entails skin smoothing, garment retouching, composite work, colour matching and correction, structural work, background retouching, detail work.

 

3) Packshot Factory in Central London who are the UK's leading high-end photography and retouching studio supplying images to major worldwide companies.Their clients include Stella McCartney, Baylis and Harding and Nike. The retouching entails creation of clipping paths, cutting out, image clean ups, composite work, and colour matching.

 

4) Cocosa based in Central London, a luxury fashion website, selling designer clothes in time limited sales, at amazing prices. Retouching work entails garment retouching, colour matching, cleaning backgrounds, skin work, structural work and detail work with a high turnover required.

5) Private clients such as photographers and make up artists. 

The companies I work for hold the copyright for the images I have worked on so most of it cannot be displayed on my personal site but only used in printed portfolios. Below is mostly a variety of work I have done for private clients.
