Professional Headshot Retouching Needed
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have a batch of corporate headshots (to begin, 8 images) that need a clean, polished look before they go live across LinkedIn, our company website, and other social channels. Each image requires three specific touches: skin smoothing with natural-looking blemish removal, subtle teeth whitening, and a tidy or replaced background that fits a modern, professional setting.
I already have a general impression of the style—think crisp, true-to-life color and realistic texture—yet I’m open to your creative suggestions if you see a way to elevate the final result. Please keep the edits refined; I want everyone to look like their best selves, not over-airbrushed versions.
Deliverables
• Final, retouched files in high-resolution JPEG (sRGB) plus a web-ready version.
• Consistent color and lighting across the full set.
• Layered PSDs or equivalent so we can make minor future tweaks in-house.
Acceptance criteria
• No visible artifacts or halos, even on close zoom.
• Skin texture still present, just smoother and blemish-free.
• Background swap or cleanup looks seamless, with convincing edge work around hair.
• Teeth remain natural in tone; no unnaturally bright smiles.
Let me know your estimated turnaround for the first proofs and any questions you have about file handoff or the preferred background look.
