Question 1

What types of retouching projects do you accept?

Accepted Answer

I provide beauty, fashion, fragrance, jewellery, cosmetics, product and advertising retouching for brands, agencies and photographers. I also work with AI, from prompt development and visual creation to high-end retouching and finishing of generated images.

How does a collaboration work?

You send me your brief, files and visual references. I then provide a quote and a schedule. Once these are approved, I complete the retouching, incorporate the agreed feedback and deliver the final files.

Do you work remotely?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Based in Paris, I work remotely with clients in France and internationally using secure file transfers.

What file formats do you accept?

Accepted Answer

I work primarily with RAW, TIFF, PSD, and high-resolution JPEG files. The most suitable format is determined based on the project's requirements.

Question 5

What are your turnaround times?

Turnaround times depend on the number of images, the complexity of the retouching, and the intended use. A precise schedule is confirmed before work begins. Urgent requests are considered based on availability.

Question 6

Are revisions included?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The number of revision rounds included is specified in the quote. Additional requests or changes outside the agreed scope may require a separate estimate.

Question 7

Can you work under an NDA?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I can sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) and comply with the project's security procedures. No confidential work is published without authorization.

Question 8

How do I get a quote?

Accepted Answer

Use the CONTACT page, specifying the number of images, the type of retouching, the desired result, the deadline, and the intended uses. I will reply with the proposed scope, budget, and timeline.

Question 9

What are your rates?

Accepted Answer

My standard rate is €600 per day. This can be adjusted depending on the number of images, the complexity of the project, the deadlines, and the available budget. Each project is quoted individually.
