Frequently asked

  • Which package should I choose?

    Essential for portraits and personal branding that need a polished, natural finish. Premium when images need dodge and burn, colour grading and clothing and background cleanup. Editorial / Campaign for beauty, editorial and commercial frames that need product refinement and creative polish.

  • How do I send the files?

    Upload through the client portal, or share a Google Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer or Pixieset link. Check that the link is accessible before you send it.

  • Does high-end retouching still look natural?

    Yes. The finish is clean and polished, and the subject stays realistic, with skin texture kept rather than smoothed away.

  • Should I send reference images?

    Yes, it is strongly recommended. References show us the retouching style, skin finish, colour tone and mood to match.

  • How many revisions are included?

    That depends on the package. Whichever one you choose, put all your revision notes clearly in one message.

  • Do you offer bulk retouching?
