As the guy who adds the "Photoshop Magic" to movie posters and high end ad campaigns, Dennis loves working on beautiful images and helping his clients to realize their vision.
Throughout his career, spanning more than 30 years, he’s enjoyed working on a wide variety of images from complex composites to beauty & fashion to product shots. In addition to his work as a digital artist/retoucher Dennis has also served the photographic community both as the Digital Chair for the APA representing them on several standards committees and as a Board member for the Los Angeles Chapter.
One of the things he enjoys the most is sharing his insights and experience helping others to become more fluent in their own work. By demonstrating the techniques he uses and discussing the concepts behind them he seeks to inspire others to take these ideas, experiment with them and make them their own taking their own skills as image makers to new levels.
Retouching Philosophy
Commercial retouching is about bringing the client’s vision to life. It requires a solid workflow and a flexible approach that will make it easy to meet the client’s demands
Working as part of a production team
Commercial ad projects mean your files need to be shared with an entire team. Once the retouching is approved another team will take your files and adapt them for insertion into various publications. Knowing how to build your files so others can do what they need is essential to success of the career of a commercial retoucher.
