Lead Retoucher and Senior Photographer

P2P StudiosNov 2006 - Sep 2022 • 15 yrs 11 mosAs a Senior High-End Retoucher, I established and managed a photography studio within the company, which led to an expansion of services and a significant increase in the quality of our work. Based in New York City, our clients were primarily from the advertising industry, working with all of the top agencies as well as collaborating directly with clients. In this role, I was responsible for overseeing and executing complex retouching projects, collaborating with photographers, art directors, and clients to ensure their needs were met and the final images were of the highest quality. My expertise in color theory and composition allowed me to produce stunning, high-quality images across a variety of industries, from beauty and fashion to products and food. I also expertly composed different elements realistically, using my knowledge as a photographer to inform how lighting should look. While I thrived working with little direction and by myself, I was also very adept at working within a team and recognized that many people may work on an image. Therefore, I strove to make files easily understandable for others, with clear notes and layers, so that team members could quickly jump in and work seamlessly together. Overall, my diverse skill set, extensive experience, and commitment to excellence made me a valuable asset to the team. Partial Client List: Garnier, L'Oreal, Ogilvy, Olay, Publicis, McCann, Maybelline, Urban Decay, Samsung, Revlon, Pureology, Kind, Head and Shoulders, Havas, Grey, Tampax, Gotham, Ralph Lauren Fragrance, and many, many others.
