While doing my own photography I have found that I can achieve only so much in camera.  I have come to find that there is a need for retouching / post production whether it is a simple portrait to having to to composite multiple picture from an on location shoot.

The techniques I use for retouching allow for all the detail in the photographs, such as skin pores, to be untouched by any manipulations.   I try to create a natural look (NO BLURRING unless specifically asked).   If you prefer a different look feel free to ask and I am sure that I can accommodate (ex: smoother skin, composited into a new background, etc.).  The retouching I normally do to photos is:

- Even skin tone
- Enhance hair color and fullness
- Accentuate or create makeup
- Add eyelashes
- Color correction
- Smoothing skin
- Whiten eyes

Basically whatever needs retouching. My rates are very reasonable please contact me if you interested in working together.  I am still building my portfolio and willing to do select TF* dependent based upon if the photo will add a new look or style.  Feel free to message me about a photo/s that you would like retouched and I will be happy to take a look.  I appreciate everyone who adds me as a friend.  At the moment one of my goals is to establish good, professional networking relationships with photographers, makeup artists, hair stylists, cloth designers, and so forth.

I have my own FTP server so please don't feel that distance is an obstacle.

Melissa Martin at Makeup 4 Media (#372597) states "Michael was extremely helpful in realizing my vision for my portfolio. He retouched as well as created some image collages to perfect my book. However, he didn't overdo or change my work, which is very important, especially with technology. My art wasn't lost in the process. It was a great collaboration. Thanks, Michael!”
