Pet Portrait Retoucher and Production Manager

Hi,

I run a pet photography business and am looking for a retoucher to do edits such as:

– Teeth whitening (for people/pets)
– Eye whitening (for people/pets)
– Leash removal
– Removal of any dust in the image (that show up as spots)
– Making tongues slightly more saturated (of dogs / cats)
– Removal of stray hairs that interfere with the face/eyes or are distracting in the image
– Verify color correction

That’s all for the most part. Just a quick couple edits after I do the major edits myself.

I would generally submit photos in batches of 5-30 images.

I would need you on a per batch basis to edit images in a group and submit all the images to me at once with around a week turnaround time.

Please submit example images that show what edits you did to pet images. If you do not have experience working with pet images, please be sure your portfolio includes before/after images so I can see what experience you have editing.

I’ll also need you to work with another retoucher to order client products and manage client orders for me, sending client emails that include things such as tracking information and ensuring clients get their products on time. You’ll need to have attention to detail, time management skills, and be able to track multiple clients at once. You’ll have to verify orders are put in correctly and be ready to assist the other retoucher when they are sick, unable to work, or fall behind on editing client images.

If this sounds like it is a good fit, please include your favorite color and food in your submission. Please also provide a sample of your work that shows ideally:

1. Pets
2. Before/after images that show your editing ability

If you do not have the above, provide your email so I can send a sample image for you to edit.

Thanks!

CJ Ashmore
