Image retouching that takes a picture further
A cable at the edge, light that missed the mark or a setting that does not support the idea. An existing photograph can be the start of a better image.
Ask about retouching your imageYou send an enquiry. We agree scope and price before starting.
Start with the original
Send the image and describe what you want to change. I assess resolution, light, perspective and the details that must be preserved. A small correction and a complete environment change require different work; the quote is based on your actual image.
Remove, add and change
Retouching can remove equipment caught in a shot, reconstruct a background, add an object or change colour and light. A setting can be replaced and the image extended for a different format. Shadows, reflections and perspective need attention to make the result coherent.
What must stay determines the method
If a face, pose or product shape must remain unchanged, those parts need protection and a final comparison with the source. Generation alone does not guarantee this. I combine my own pipelines with image editing and choose the method the picture needs.
Explore the possibilities
The comparisons below are our own generative image studies showing types of changes. They are not client jobs or a guarantee of pixel-identical preservation. On a commission, we agree which elements must remain unchanged.
In-house AI image studies / retouching & image editing
One image. More possibilities.
Remove, add, change the light or create an entirely new setting. Drag across the images to explore the difference.
A completely new setting
From a plain room to an exclusive setting with stone, wood and sea views.
Drag to compare. You can also use the arrow keys.
Remove distractions
A studio cable caught in the product shot is removed. The stone surface behind it is reconstructed.
Drag to compare. You can also use the arrow keys.
Change the light
A reading corner changes from cool daylight to a warm evening atmosphere with the reading lamp on.
Drag to compare. You can also use the arrow keys.
Add something new
A vase of flowers is added to the table setting, with matching light and shadows.
Drag to compare. You can also use the arrow keys.
More life. A different place.
A portrait with windswept hair and natural skin texture. The concrete courtyard becomes cliffs and ocean in evening light.
Drag to compare. You can also use the arrow keys.
Before your enquiry
Can you work on an ordinary photograph?
Yes. Enquiries from individuals, businesses and agencies are welcome. Send the original file rather than a screenshot where possible. I assess what can be done before we agree the scope and price.
Can I commission an image of another person?
For AI images of another person, we require their explicit written approval for the editing and intended use. You also need the right to have the photograph edited.
An eye, craft and clear terms.
Our own pipelines and careful editing. No slop. Usage rights in writing: you know what you receive and where you can use the image.
Does your idea not fit a package? Get in touch anyway. Personal image projects are welcome too. Image jobs for everyone
