Image
retouching.
The right retouch is the one nobody notices. It does not invent another image — it delivers the one the camera was trying to capture.
Talk about a project ↗Precision without the plastic.
Bad retouching announces itself from across the room: skin with no texture, product with no weight, light that does not match the shadow. Good retouching works the other way — it preserves the material, corrects what distracts, and reinforces what the photograph already had going for it.
We work on campaigns, fashion, editorial and product catalogues, with a non-destructive workflow and delivery in the correct colour profiles for both screen and print. High volume is welcome too, with a consistent standard across every image in a series.

Frequently asked questions
Do you handle high volumes of images?
Yes. For catalogues and large series we define a reference standard at the start and apply it across every image, keeping the set coherent.
Do I receive layered files?
Yes, when the project calls for it. The workflow is non-destructive and editable files can be delivered alongside the finals.
What is the turnaround time?
It varies with volume and level of treatment. Individual images usually take a few days; large series get a schedule defined in the quote.
Do you also shoot the photography?
The studio focuses on retouching and art direction. When a project needs photographic production, we work with partner photographers.
