Hi there, well lets get started....

...I started out my life in the 'real world' training as a graphic designer in Cape Town, South Africa for 3 years gaining a National Diploma for my efforts.
My first job I worked in a photographic lab in the digital section as a printer/assistant/retoucher for about 4 years. This was where my love for digital manipulation started. Working on both fashion and 'everyday people' jobs I then moved to a photographic studio for about 3 years. I then moved to London and have been working for a Design, Printing and Binding company since.

Whilst this current job pays the bills and covers my technical experience, I miss the creativity and control I get from photo manipulation/editing. I love fashion&make up retouching as I like to see a well worked image portraying the final results of what the photographer and model were aiming for. Sometimes I like a little bit of work on a image and sometimes I like a lot! Every job is different and it depends on the client, but every image is a piece of art to me.

My goals for using this site are basically to build up a good looking fashion/make up retouching portfolio and to launch a free lance retouching career to satisfy my need to 'create something beatiful' and well..it would be great to pay some bills. :)

My current website is a constant work in progress but it shows a litte bit of everything I do from photography to design to retouching.
