I'm a full time professional retoucher and image editor with over 20 years experience using Photoshop. My work involves fashion & beauty work, retouching & editing headshots as well as product retouching, creating composite images and special effects.
In addition to my retouching work I do occasional teaching in Photoshop and Lightroom, usually remotely but am just as happy with one to one tuition or a full group.
I also do a lot of photography and consider myself semi-pro, my photography includes red carpet events, premiers, headshots and product work.

Most of my life I've also worked on and off as an artist, mostly painting portraits in oil or pastel. I think this experience gives me an ability as a retoucher to be able to improvise where needed and re-create elements within an image that may be missing or lacking in detail. I literally paint into the image as though I were working on a painting.

I do still do some TF work so shout if you think I can help you... mostly I need to work paid, there are bills to pay!

In addition to general retouching my work also covers:
Recolouring
Body shaping
Eye bag removal
Digital make-up
Background removal including sophisticated hair masking
Compositing
Etc...

In the digital world, anything is possible! That's not to say that I can do anything and everything, but I will always try...

Every image that leaves my 'studio', regardless of the brief, will be clean. So if you ask me to retouch skin, you'll get that, in addition, your images will be free of lint and loose threads on clothing, the background will be clean, I'll sharpen to meet your intended output needs etc.
