Editing, Color Correcting, and Retouching
I love editing. That love is equal parts the satisfaction of using little-known technical tricks to make stellar images, mixed with enjoying a healthy outlet for meticulously fixing small details while listening to hours of 90s music.
As a freelance editor and retoucher, I enjoy incorporating a mixture of techniques I've picked up while working on a vast scope of projects throughout my career.
During my humble beginnings as a wedding photographer, I successfully post-processed well over 60,000 images collectively to have a uniform look and stay consistent with our company's branding despite varying camera models, photographers, lighting conditions, locations, and subjects.
As a digital marketer/photographer hybrid, I have retouched, composited, and corrected, thousands of photographs to meet various brand guidelines while adding that extra oomph that images for digital advertising require.
I've always loved being a behind-the-scenes player. When my friends in high school decided to try out for the leads in our school play, I rolled up my sleeves and put my name down for stage crew. Learning new things is my ultimate favorite. The trickier and more technical it is, the better.
With proficiency in compositing, luminosity masking, frequency separation, mastery of blending modes, color toning, preset creation, skin retouching, tone mapping, and countless other Photoshop and Lightroom skills, your post-processing project is something I'd love to take a crack at!
Looking for something in particular?
Due to the behind-the-scenes nature of post-processing - like copyright courtesies and limited space - most editing projects don't make it to my website. I'd be happy to share more about my process and show off more examples, so give me a shout!
