I'm a photo editor, retoucher, and photographer with hands-on experience in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom across portraits, live music, editorial photography, and client image edits. I excel at masking, compositing, background replacement, color correction, and natural retouching. I’ve worked with VSCO and Mashable, provided retouching and color correction for KALTBLUT Magazine, and completed quick-turnaround Photoshop edits for freelance clients. I thrive in collaborative remote environments and love turning complex shoots into polished, publish-ready images. I am passionate about delivering high-quality visuals that communicate the right mood and story, while maintaining efficient workflows and clear communication with clients and teams.
