Is retouching included?

Most clients want to look younger, thinner, and more attractive. Who wouldn't right?

This is especially important for teams. The finish needs to be consistent across the whole company, while still keeping everyone looking like themselves.

What’s included as standard

Yes. Every image you purchase is fully retouched.

I keep it natural. It’s about tidying distractions, not changing who you are.

Flyaway hairs: tamed, without making hair look painted on
Skin tone: evened out gently, keeping texture and natural colour
Temporary blemishes: reduced or removed where it makes sense
Under-eye shadows and fine lines: softened, not erased
Clothing: lint, small creases, and obvious bumps tidied up

What I don’t change (unless you ask)

I don’t reshape faces, slim bodies, or do anything that makes you look like someone else. A professional headshot should feel honest and current. If you’d like heavier retouching for a particular reason, just tell me. I’m happy to do more when requested, but I’ll always check what you want first.

For corporate teams

On team headshot days, consistency matters. Retouching helps create a joined-up look across your website, LinkedIn bios, and leadership page. Nobody looks overdone, and nobody gets left looking unfinished.
