Natural Photo Color Correction

I’m preparing a small set of images for publication and need a skilled hand to bring the colours to life while keeping everything looking natural and true-to-scene. Exposure and framing are already in good shape; what I’m after is consistent white balance, gentle contrast, and accurate skin tones—no heavy filters or stylised looks.

You’ll receive the originals as RAW (.CR2) files together with reference JPEGs so you can see the mood I want to preserve. Please complete the work non-destructively in Adobe Lightroom Classic or Adobe Camera Raw; when you’re done, send back high-resolution JPEGs plus the accompanying XMP files (or the catalogue) so I can make minor tweaks later if necessary.

Acceptance criteria:
• Neutral colour balance across the full set
• No colour cast, clipped highlights, or crushed shadows
• Original resolution and metadata fully intact

I’d like the edited files within two days of hand-off. If you have examples of previous natural-style colour work, feel free to point me toward them when you reply.
