Photo Retouching - US Based, commercial experience
 

Hi guys,

I'm a photo retoucher based in Los Angeles. I've worked on mainstream advertising campaigns, glamour/swimwear/alternative/headshots/fetish pictures, photo restoration projects etc.

I'm "new" to the adult industry, trying to get my foot in, which is why I'm advertising here. I'm kinda wondering if most content producers/photographers outsource this to cheap countries, or if I can actually offer my services at rates I am normally getting from US based photographers/magazines/ad agencies etc?

I can't compete with $1 per photo at all, there is no way, but I can definitely guarantee professional photo edits, which I do manually, and no language barrier issues. I use Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 4, and I can work with any size pictures (standard/medium format).

Since I don't have an adult portfolio to showcase (and I can't put up my mainstream clients' images on an adult forum), I am open to retouching 3 images for 2 different members here for free, on the terms that I can use them for my portfolio and to show as examples here at the forum.

Peace!

Bump. I now use Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5.
I use a color corrected Dell Ultrasharp monitor and an Intuos Pro tablet for editing.

Any takers? Offering free edits for 2 users, in exchange for allowing me to use the images for my portfolio.

Thank you for your time!

Use some free images and show us some samples? :)

Well, I'll take a look, but I guess not a lot of content producers upload pro shot, unedited pictures that I can download :)
