About Me

"Before I grab the Clone Stamp tool or run the Gaussian Blur filter,
I take a moment to recognize that each portrait represents
a unique person to be handled with care and respect.

Good retouching requires a careful eye, an empathetic heart, and a patient mouse. The best retouching is never done
when you’re pressed for time, tired, or distracted. Believe me,
a little bit of careful retouching is always better than a lot of
poor retouching.

My role as a portrait retoucher is to accentuate the
person’s natural features while minimizing the distractions
and blemishes that can detract from a pleasing portrait.
Most important, I want to maintain the subject’s individuality.
Not every person will have a Hollywood ingénue’s flawless skin
or a lion’s head of hair, so I study the character of the person
and decide which attributes to accentuate and which to
minimize before I begin to click my mouse.

I start each portrait retouch by looking at the entire image
—too often I’ve seen people dive into a retouch by randomly removing blemishes or whitening teeth without first understanding the overall image.
Mapping out a portrait retouch strategy will make my retouching time more efficient and effective."

I'd be happy to work with both photographers and models.
