From consistent commercial catalog processing to detailed editorial retouching, every adjustment is made to support the intended use of the image.

04 / THE WORKFLOW
Source files are received through the agreed secure transfer method, inventoried, and checked for completeness before production begins.
References, intended output, priority images, texture preferences, color direction, and consistency requirements are confirmed.
Retouching, color, cleanup, masking, and export work are completed against the approved direction and requested specifications.
Finished files are inspected, organized, and prepared for the requested web, social, catalog, or print use.

06 / IMAGE TYPES

Natural skin texture, controlled color, clean fabric, balanced contrast, and careful distraction removal. The finish remains believable at full resolution and at final publishing size.

Accurate shape and color, controlled surfaces, clean reflections, precise edges, and repeatable framing across product collections and campaign deliverables.

Clear naming, matched treatment, efficient approval rounds, and organized final files for teams managing recurring shoots, seasonal catalogs, or active content libraries.

07 / DELIVERY STANDARDS
Consistent treatment across the approved set, with visual decisions evaluated against the intended output.
Requested aspect ratios, pixel dimensions, orientation, safe area, and platform-specific framing.
JPEG, PNG, TIFF, or other agreed exports balanced for quality, transparency, speed, and downstream use.
Clear file names, version separation, and predictable folders for handoff to marketing, design, or publishing teams.
Review for missing files, edge defects, unwanted artifacts, inconsistent edits, and incorrect output specifications.
08 / PROJECT FIT
Useful for overflow, recurring client work, time-sensitive selects, and consistent editing across active seasons.
Suitable for catalog updates, campaign assets, product launches, marketplace requirements, and ongoing digital channels.
Clear references, file naming, approval notes, and delivery requirements keep handoffs understandable for every stakeholder.
09 / WORKING DETAILS
Provide representative source files, total image count, intended use, preferred dimensions and formats, reference direction, required delivery date, and any naming requirements. For large sets, a small group of representative files helps confirm the appropriate scope.
No. The displayed ranges describe common U.S. project scopes. A final quote depends on image quantity, source quality, retouching complexity, masking, compositing, number of outputs, and turnaround.
Common camera RAW files, TIFF, PSD, high-resolution JPEG, and PNG can be evaluated. The best format depends on the available source and requested result. Keep original files until the project and any revisions are complete.
Direction is established from references, prior approved work, written notes, intended channel, and specific requirements such as natural skin texture, accurate product color, or a defined contrast level.
It can apply to clearly scoped small or batch-processing requests after files and direction are confirmed. Complex retouching, compositing, large quantities, rush work, or delayed feedback may require a different schedule.
The confirmed scope states the included revision allowance. Corrections within the approved direction are handled differently from new creative direction, replacement source files, additional images, or new output requirements.
Files are used to evaluate, perform, review, revise, and deliver the requested service. They are not placed in public promotional work without separate permission. Clients must have the rights needed to submit all materials.
Software-assisted tools may support selected production tasks, but they do not replace human review. Delivered files are checked for texture, anatomy, edges, repeated artifacts, inconsistent corrections, and output accuracy.
05 / HUMAN QUALITY CONTROL
Editing tools can accelerate repetitive work, but they do not replace visual judgment. Every delivered file is reviewed for edge quality, texture, color consistency, export settings, and the specific requirements provided with the project.
