Social Media Portrait Upgrade

Job ID: 40457669

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I’m looking to turn a single portrait shot into a scroll-stopping image for my social-media accounts. The top priority is refined, well-balanced lighting that flatters the face and adds depth without washing anything out. Once the lighting is spot-on, I’d like tasteful color grading and gentle skin retouching—enough to polish, never to plastic-smooth.

Rather than a plain or blurred backdrop, I want a detailed background that feels natural to the scene. This could mean extending the existing setting, composing new elements, or creating a rich digital backdrop that blends seamlessly with the subject.

Deliverables
• High-resolution JPEG ready for Instagram and Facebook profiles
• Layered PSD (or equivalent) with adjustment layers intact
• Any custom LUTs or presets used during grading

Acceptance Criteria
• Even, natural-looking lighting with no harsh hotspots or banding
• Skin texture preserved while blemishes and color inconsistencies are minimized
• Background detailed, cohesive, free from distractions, and properly matched to subject lighting
• Final master file delivered at 4K resolution in sRGB color space

I’ll send over the RAW file as soon as we agree. If you work quickly and communicate clearly, there may be more shots coming your way.
