Retouching and special effects for print advertising

From basic beauty retouching to heavy compositing and color manipulation, I can handle pretty much handle

any kind of retouching job you may have from my studio here in Los Angeles.

 

Retouching on location

Occasionally I get asked to travel and retouch on location. Please contact me to discuss rates,

equipment rental, logistics, etc.

 

Educating/training

I love to teach!

From one person to your whole retouching staff, I can work with students and professionals alike

to take your Photoshop skills to the next level. Geared for those Photoshop artists who are already

(or soon to be) working in the graphic arts, I can show you how to work like the boutique professionals do.

 

Consulting

Need an outside expert eyeball to consult on a job or your retouching department or workflow?

• I can work with creatives on set or in pre-production to help assure that all of the images that are

needed to pull off a particular gag get captured. Sometimes, one extra plate or extreme bracketing on

an image for a particular effect… simple things like locking the camera down… sometimes that little bit

of extra effort can save a ton of time and money in post and, most importantly, your image will look better!

• I can work with your retouching department to streamline your workflow: everything from how assets are

organized and graded to how files are built to the color space your shop chooses to work in: rgb, cmyk, etc.

• Unlike a lot of the folks out there giving how-to seminars and charging lots of money, I've actually done

all of this work in the real world. Run your situation by me, you'll get honest answers and if I can't help,

I probably know someone who can.

 

Rates

Please contact me to discuss your job. I can quote flat rates or charge a la cart (by the hour).
