Photo Editing & Retouching Services
About our Photo Editing Services
High quality pictures are as important as the written word, which is why professional photo retouching services have been my specialty for over 10 years now. I have retouched and optimised both my own photos and those provided to me, for a huge array of purposes from weddings to fashion shoots, products to portraits and of course property photography. As a skilled image editor, I can handle all levels of photo manipulation, editing or retouching. To discuss your job, give me a call on 07795463308 or use the contact form.
Adobe experts
I primarily use Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom for non-destructive retouching and photo editing services. I’ve been using Photoshop for well over a decade, so you can be confident that your photos will be edited by a professional with a wealth of experience. Whenever possible, I will provide unflattened files in any format you require, as well as the final work in any format you require. For photographers with busy schedules, I can also offer batch photo editing services.
Spend less time editing and more time shooting
Professional photographers are busy people – so let me handle the editing so you can focus on the work that requires you, so you can get back to what you do best. From real estate photographers to e-commerce businesses, product photographers to Amazon sellers, my photo editing services are trusted by a wide range of customers to save them time and provide professional edits. See examples of my range of services below.
Photo Retouching Services Offered
TONAL ADJUSTMENTS
In addition to adding dramatic effects to a picture, tonal adjustment can also be used to fix overexposed or dark pictures. In terms of real estate photo editing for example; if an image is to convey a sense of warmth and hospitality, the tone should be bright and inviting. The right contrast makes a bright photo more attractive to the eye and more likely to draw a potential buyer's attention. Making these edits will give the photo more depth and make it more engaging and inviting.
WHITE BALANCING & COLOUR CORRECTION
white balancing allows a photograph of an object that is white in person to appear white in the photo so the property can appear at its best.
Furthermore, we remove any yellow or off-white discoloration to create a clean, crisp image with natural color correction.
BLEMISH & OBJECT REMOVAL
I can remove any kind of mark, blemish or spot on your photos. Dust, for instance, can blur your photo or leave a mark, but it can be hard to spot on a lens, especially the small lens of a smartphone, so this is one of the most common photo editing services I am asked to do. I can also simply remove objects that you forgot to remove from the scene, or things you wish weren't there, such as plug sockets, damage, people or even pets. I also offer background removal for photographers wanting their subject in isolation by using a clipping path to cut the object out pixel by pixel - often useful for product photos.
REFLECTION & FLASH REMOVAL
The problem with taking pictures in front of mirrors is that they effectively break the 4th wall by revealing you as the photographer. However, a professional shot can be easily obtained by removing the photographer and any reflections from the camera.
Additionally, flash is sometimes needed to illuminate a dark room, but this may result in dramatic reflections and shadows in the picture. Again, I can easily fix this for you in order to create a dramatically more professional image.
BLUE SKY REPLACEMENT
Don't allow a dreary British day detract from your pictures. A lovely clear, blue sky can be substituted for that cloudy, washed-out, or overexposed sky you encountered on the day of the shoot. I'll also fix any lighting problems in your images at the same time. Blue sky replacement is easily one of my most popular services.
DUSK SKY REPLACEMENT
Although dusk is a beautiful time of day, it is famously difficult to capture, especially for a beginner. To help your item stand out from the crowd, I'll take your property shot from day to twilight (even including a beautiful sunset if requested) using advanced editing techniques.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is retouching in photography?
Photo retouching is removing imperfections from an image. Portrait photographers remove blemishes and pimple from the skin, whereas product photographers get rid of unwanted textures, dust, and wrinkles. Property photographers also tend to remove unwanted marks, and blemishes, as well as reflections, shadows, and even the colour of the sky or the time of day.
Why use a photo retouching service?
Photo editing services are helpful to everyone. You may be someone who owns an eCommerce store, or a photographer, or a fashion designer, a property owner or marketer. For each and every type of industry, you will need your images to be edited professionally. Without using an online photo editing service you could end up with poor quality images that won’t appeal to your customers.
There are many ways to edit your photos, but most people use Photoshop or similar software programs. This site allows users to crop, resize, add effects, and make minor adjustments to pictures.
What if I have multiple photographs that need to be edited?
No problem – in fact many of my customers provide photos to me in large batches and want the same standard and edits applied to all of them. Use the contact form or call me on 07795463308 to discuss this in further detail.
How much does photo retouching cost?
It is impossible to determine a price for any project or job without first seeing the source pictures and understanding the required work, so it’s best to speak to me to discuss your needs and my pricing, and send over some examples if possible. But to give you an idea, it usually takes 10 – 25 minutes to retouch a simple image (e.g. tonal adjustments, brightness/contract & blemish removals), and up to two hours or more to do more complicated edits such as removing large objects such as people or cars.
