If you choose to retouch, you have several options. One is my very talented referral retoucher Maria. She does not work for me, and I make no money on retouching. I refer clients to her because she charges a tad less than the labs charge, her work is better than the local labs, and she doesn't rush. She does retouching of 8x10s, online image prep, and also does setup with name and borders. Her prices and a portfolio of headshot before & after images are on her website.
To check out Maria's work, just visit her website, click on Headshots, and then click on Order Headshot Retouching. You can find Maria online at
