Recommendations for freelance picture editor

[onlytease]

Hi all,

We maybe looking for a fulltime picture editor, and wondering if there are still companies out there with full time outsourced picture editors in places like the Far East?

So any recommendations? And what prices we would expect to pay?

Hey only tease, would you mind to provide some samples and some instructions, so i can actually try?
(I don't have a business structure right now, so it's not a business proposal).
I used to promote your galleries a couple of years ago and really like your content.
I am just curious to know how good i can work with these new AI tools.

Hi all,
Sorry I should have been clearer what we are looking for.

First off we are based in UK, so on a cost basis am looking for someone overseas.

When we shoot stills with our models (we shoot about 8 models a week - doing approx 1,000 images per model), currently we do not do any form of editing on any images, we simply delete any poor ones, eyes closed etc, then publish everything else. One of our USP's is that we don't retouch anything.

However, recently I feel we can do a better job by batch processing images via Lightroom, to do some small colour corrections, lightening if needed etc, to give a better image. I do not want to do anything like skin smoothing or more detailed retouching, but possibly just some colour corrections on each set (a set is approx 130 images).

To trial this initially I am looking for someone with some good indepth experience of Lightroom to run a trial of retouching maybe 10 sets of images, so we can then go to our membership and see which style is the preferred choice.

And if the consensus is the colour corrected images, we would then look at a full time position for someone to retouch all our sets. This would mean downloading the sets from our servers, running through lightoom then reuploading the colour corrected images into our CMS.

So this is a quick summary of what I want - and initially its a trial on maybe 10 sets so we can guage our members reaction.

So anyone interested either post here or you can get me directly on [email protected]
