DWB - I mainly photo retouch lately. Well that and CSS.
I dont charge by the pic anymore as all pics are different. I charge by the hour and keep track of my time honestly. It also depends on what level of retouching you need. Do i need to adjust color throughout a set or do I need to hand touch each pic such as taking out a specific blemish or razor burn or whatever there is in a set.
Id need to see a set to accurately quote but its generally 20-25 an hour. Hand touched sets get around 10 pics give or take an hour. Some sets can run clients 200 dollars, some could be 40. It depends on 3 things. Set/Pose, talent/body and photographer. All those things determine my time frame per pic.
Thats for realistic photo retouching.
Some people want that plastic look to their thumbs, I do that too. Much cheaper rate.
