High-end photo retoucher and graphic designer from New York City with many years’ experience as a freelance consultant; and 6 of those years I spent working as an in-house full-time celebrity photo retoucher for Getty Images. I was a part of a boutique style celebrity portraiture division called Contour by Getty Images, where we retouched high-end celebrity portraits as well as fashion shoots! Our roster included international celebrity photographers such as Brian Doben, Christopher Beyer, Dan MacMedan, Jeff Vespa, Michael Sharkey, Tyler Shields, and Russell Baer. I also retouched and prepared portraits of Getty Images CEO Jonathan Klein and other senior executives for press materials. I’ve had the pleasure of working with various clients from all avenues, such as Splashlight Studios where I retouched projects for Victoria Secret’s and David Yurman. Some of my recent clients include Bao Bei Maternity, Devocateur Inc, Phil Jones UK (#1 Sales Speaker and Trainer across the globe), and Charity Sports Auctions/Executive Sports Group.
