You can easily google my name and find acces to my retouching work and publication I have had as well as find more about my educational side - focused around retouching.

In this course I will walk you through whole process of retouching fashion images - working on few different image examples.

Of Course I will start with raw conversion in camera raw - base of every retouching. For those who are not using camera raw - just like me - I also prepared lesson teaching you raw conversion in Capture One - the software of my choice.

After showing you everything what you need to know about raw processing we will jump into photoshop and start from the skin retouching.

In this part I will show you how to clean skin professionaly using basic tools - only one right way to clean up your images. What is the difference between them and to what you need to pay attention. Of course I couldn’t miss Dodge & Burn Process - the superior technique when it comes to non-destructive skin retouching technique.

In the next section you will learn everything you need to know about contrasts - and It will give you huge boost of information and you wil fully master working with masks. I will show you how to create very precise masks to define perfect line between shadows and highlights. After this I will show you how to get control over every part of the image - even such a small details like shoes! And work with the lights on each and specyfic area.

Using knowledge from masks we will move into color tonning and color corrections. Using advanced masing we will be doing color corrections with understanding of color theories - so you know you won’t be just putting colors randomly - but the way to make the entire composition look amazing.

At the end of the course we will jump to my final steps where I polish the images - incuding hue, saturation and luminosity values of the Image.
