About

Hi, I’m Tyler Gaeton, a Colour Retoucher and pre-press specialist with honours in Advertising and Marketing Communications Management from Sheridan College. Based in Hamilton, I’ve helped turn images into print-ready assets for brands across Retail and Consumer Goods, with a focus on color accuracy, attention to detail, and efficient pre-media workflows.

I enjoy collaborating with creative teams, learning new tools quickly, and solving color and printability challenges across Offset, Flexo, and Gravure processes. When I’m not refining imagery, I’m exploring photography and design trends to bring fresh perspectives to every project.
