I mention it elsewhere on Orange Year that illustration is my main focus, but photo retouching is my day job. For the past two years, I've been employed as The Head of Graphics and Web Design for a modeling agency in downtown Portland. In all of that time I've photoshopped 1000's of images, sometimes 100 a day. Some are simple color correction and some are intense digital airbrushing. It's second nature by now, so I figure why not focus on it a bit more?
The result is The Photo Leaf.
I labored intensively over the site in the past week as I haven't focused on HTML or form integration in the past couple of years. Also, I expect the site to grow and get more interesting in the coming weeks.
I'm trying to charge something extremely reasonable for the service. I've checked around, and it's pretty much as cheap as the cheapest service online. In a lot of ways, photo retouching has become an unexpected joy for me, so even if I'm under-charging a little I'm pretty happy to do it.
