12 years of Photoshop experience tends to refine your craft.

Straight up, my rates are $50 per image for most edits, unless you're a model and you want to shoot with me (for free), then you get the retouched image(s) of my choosing for free, or if you're a bad ass photographer and you have an image that needs retouching that I can use in my portfolio, but those are limited exceptions.

My terms are as follows.
1) Images supplied must be unaltered, full resolution and properly exposed. JPGs are fine, but I seriously prefer RAW, especially if you shoot Nikon.

2) If you are a model and you need retouching, I must have consent from the photographer. I will not retouch another photographer's work and alter their vision without their blessing. So, get them to shoot me a message on here if they can, or we'll arrange consent some other way.

3) I accept payment via paypal or credit card, which is also via paypal, but you don't need a paypal account to use that. I send you an invoice, you make payment and submit the image to me ,along with any special requests, via email, I edit it and email a proof back to you. If you're not happy I'll fix what needs to be fixed or refund your money. Easy breezy, beautiful covergirl.

So what do you get for your money?
1) Level and contrast adjustment. Dodging, burning, and sculpting.

2) Amazing skin. I have spent years perfecting my skin techniques. I don't just obliterate details with Gaussian blurs. I smooth skin and fine tune the model's pore structure that she was born with. The result is realistic, perfect, magazine quality skin.

But I take this one step further. I don't limit my attention to just the face. The entire body gets this treatment. Moles are eliminated, scars, tatoos, etc. The result is a model that has skin that is uniform from head to toe.

3) Sultry eyes. There is so much detail in an eye. Redness is taken out, blood vessels are eliminated, catch lights are examined, makeup is enhanced, crescents, irises, etc. Everything is taken into account.

4) Lips and teeth. Brightened, straightened, etc. Lipstick is cleaned up.

5) Hair cloning if necessary. Be prepared for me to ask you for another couple of images from the series if this is needed, so I can sample multiple sources.

6) Background distraction are sometimes eliminated.

7) Occasional minor body altering. For example, if a rib is poking out funny, or there needs to be a little more curve in her back.

What will I not do?
1) I will not take your model, shot on a busy background and composite her onto a beach scene. I don't have the backgrounds, and the lighting never lines up properly and the images look hacked.

2) I will not do selective desaturation.

3) I will not give a model DD's when she clearly has a B cup.
