Retouching
Photo retouching is one of the core skills I bring to every project — cleaning up product shots, enhancing food photography, and polishing portraits to match the mood and tone a campaign needs. I work primarily in Photoshop, handling everything from basic color correction and skin retouching to more complex compositing and background replacement.
Before AI came into the picture, a lot of this work was just time — careful, painstaking selections, manual masking, layer after layer until it looked right. AI tools have changed that. Tasks that used to eat up half a day now take minutes. Changing a subject's age, adapting a model's look to better connect with a specific target audience, removing distractions from a background — things that once required serious Photoshop gymnastics are now a fraction of the effort.
But here is the thing: AI does not replace the eye. It just removes the busywork. The quality of the final result still comes down to the designer's standard — how well they see light, color, and detail, and how high they set the bar for what is good enough. Better eyes, better result. That part has not changed at all.
