Brand-accurate imagery, built to hold up at any size.
A Photoshop and compositing specialist for over twenty-five years, focused in recent years on high-end retouching for national food, beverage, product, and packaging brands. I turn raw studio captures into finished, on-brand campaign and retail imagery for print and screen.

What I do
Over twenty-five years in Photoshop and compositing, now specialized in finishing imagery for national food and product brands. The hard part isn't the cleanup — it's assembling separate elements into a single believable, on-brand frame that survives print and screen, and holding that look across a full product line or campaign.
