ABOUT ME

It is my mission to craft better images to connect human hearts and brands. To give you the best possible result, I use my expertise in visual aesthetics to bring out the unique story of each individual image by preserving its natural beauty and by giving it the final touch, respecting the creative vision. I am a beauty, hair and commercial retouch artist.

Being an art director for years, I chose to follow my passion and turn into a full time pro retoucher with almost 20 years in the creative industry by today. I have a strong experience in providing high end results to clients like Aldi, Fortuna Düsseldorf, Henkel, Hornbach, Mastercard, Schwarzkopf, Stabilo and Syoss among many others. I am working on projects for well-known international advertising agencies, photographers and magazines.

As global Capture One Ambassador, I am honored to connect to likeminded professionals and creatives to provide knowledge and create value for the creative family. Also collaborating closely with the Capture One team to further improve the product experience is an important part of my Ambassadorship.

Giving keynotes, talks at Capture Ones format STAND OUT, online webinars or tuitions on YouTube and behance, or speaking for Wacom at their HQ in Düsseldorf or at photokina, is a big joy and has led to very fulfilling conversations and deep personal connections.

Excellent tutorial and just what I was looking for! Thank you so much!

[tomludwig]

Thank you for another great and very instructive tutorial. May I ask a question: The hair brush you are setting up here is much simpler than the one presented in one of your earlier tutorials. When would you use one or the other of the two options?
I am also most interested in your master-class on 29 Mar and help in supporting people from Ukraine. When and where can I find more information about that? Again, thank you for sharng your very valuable knowledge!!

Лучшие уроки, ретушь и фотографии на ютуб.
единственное что не люблю, это дорисованные волоски, они всегда смотрятся не естественно.
