When you want to make a lasting impression and look your best, professional photo retouching is essential for helping your images stand out.
Our retouching services include two key components: photo correction and photo enhancement.
Photo Correction ensures your images meet minimum professional standards. This includes improving aspects like brightness, contrast, colour, sharpness, and cropping, as well as addressing any technical issues.
Photo Enhancement takes your images to the next level. For portraits, this means removing blemishes, stray hairs, minimizing wrinkles, brightening eyes and teeth, and balancing skin tones.
Every business photo can benefit from retouching, whether it’s headshots, group photos, event coverage, product shots, or images of your office and facilities. Utilizing retouching for your website, social media, newsletters, and media handouts is crucial for presenting your brand effectively.
Retouching isn't just for fashion models or advertisements of luxury products. Retouching is for any photo that's important to you or your business.
What we do
Business portraits are one of the most effective marketing tools available. They offer a powerful and easy way to connect with your customers.
But if your headshot isn’t properly edited, you risk sending the wrong message.
Headshot retouching isn’t about vanity. It’s about harnessing the full potential of photography.
Retouching can correct technical flaws in your portrait and help minimize blemishes and distractions. A polished, well-groomed appearance not only enhances your attractiveness, it also but also boosts perceptions of your competence and likability — a phenomenon known as the Halo Effect.
Pictures capture attention in ways that text simply can't. The saying "show, don’t tell" holds true. If you're not leveraging photography to promote your business, you’re missing a vital opportunity to stand out.
Every business has photos that could benefit from retouching. These images need to create a strong, positive impression on viewers. High-quality images play a crucial role in shaping a company’s brand identity.
Photo retouching can enhance your website images, business conference photos, product shots, and other marketing images. With well-finished photos, your business presents a more professional image to potential customers.
Retouching photos of homes and offices is essential when these properties are up for sale. Properly finished images attract more viewers and can lead to higher selling prices.
Professionally retouched photos of interiors and exteriors are important for the portfolios of home builders, renovators, architects, designers, and other businesses in the design and construction industry.
Using cellphone snaps or amateur-looking photos to showcase your work is counterproductive. High-quality retouching elevates your images, allowing your company to shine.
Casual family and wedding photos are all about capturing genuine moments, and they don’t need to be perfect. Our emotional connection to the people in those images allows us to overlook any imperfections.
But if there’s something you can’t overlook or if you plan to display or print the photos, retouching can make a difference. It can enhance both the photo and its subjects, helping you cherish those memories even more.
Almost all commercial images you see, have been edited or retouched to some extent. There's good reason for this.
Well-finished images not only look better but they also capture viewer attention more effectively. When viewers are engaged, they become more interested, making them more receptive to your business message.
Professional editing and retouching elevate the perceived value of your brand and help you stand out to potential customers.
Photo retouching is a crucial final step before showcasing commercial images to the public.
Why Hire Us
How It Works
Send your digital image(s) and a description of what you want done. I work only with digital files.
Initially you can send a smaller version of your photo(s). But I need the largest version available for the retouching. Working with a large image allows for finer and more accurate edits.
If the retouching meets your needs, I'll send an invoice. After you've paid by credit card or Interac e-transfer, you will receive the finished photo(s).
If the retouching doesn't meet your needs, I can do one revision or you can cancel the work without any cost to you.

Photo retouching is the fountain of youth? Good retouching will improve your portrait but it shouldn’t make you look younger. Instead it should make you look your best.
One of the more difficult, if not impossible, retouching tasks is removing facial hair. Removing a beard or moustache can be impossible to do because the facial hair has to be replaced by realistic-looking skin that matches the person's face. Also, the photo retoucher has no idea what the person’s jaw and mouth look like under the facial hair.
