Profile Information
- About Me and My Photography Experience:
- Retouching the World, one image at a time!
My name is David and I'm a photo retouch artist. I started out studying photography at The Art Institute of Houston in the early 80's. I moved to Tulsa and began a career as a commercial photographer, but after I built my second darkroom I found that I liked the darkroom as much, if not more than being behind the camera. Although I have remained an avid photographer the computer age came along and my formal training was electronics, so it was a natural progression to get into computer IT and become a geek.
In 2006 I was in a serious car accident and had a long recovery (100% if you don't count the occasional vertigo ). Anyway, I decided I would change my focus and I began learning everything I could about Photoshop and Illustrator. Just as I had taught myself photography a long time ago, I started teaching myself the art of photo retouching. I'm obsessed now and I don't see any end in sight.
I have great color perception and a wonderful attention to detail. I see things most don't and my wife hates to shop for clothes without me, she says “because I'm so good with colors." Yeah right, I say thanks 'hot rod' and spend the day with her anyway. I love her to death. ;o)
I really want to be a great success with my retouching skills. I think it's always been in my blood to make things look as good as possible, some would call that a perfectionist trait. Maybe so!
Currently I'm happy to retouch one or two quality images without charge as a way to build my portfolio and possibly help others with their goals too. Feel free to contact me or send images you would like retouched to David at PixelPurfect dot com and I'll let you know which ones I would like to retouch. You must be the model and/or the copyright holder or have permission to request the retouch. Please include your user name when you contact me via email. That's how I organize my work.
All the best,
David
