Step Into a Role Where Creativity Meets Precision

Are you ready to transform raw visuals into pixel-perfect masterpieces from the comfort of your home? We're seeking a talented Remote Image Retoucher who’s passionate about visual storytelling, meticulous in detail, and thrives in a remote creative ecosystem. This role is your chance to make an impact on high-end photography and editorial campaigns, elevating every image you touch while collaborating with world-class creative professionals.

Join a dynamic digital studio that has scaled over 300% in the past two years, where retouchers are not just technicians, but storytellers who bring visual narratives to life. Whether you’re enhancing e-commerce visuals, retouching portraits for branding campaigns, or applying expert-level corrections to high-resolution files, your work will directly shape our clients’ digital presence across global markets.

What You'll Be Responsible For

As our new Remote Image Retoucher, your work will define the quality of our visual output across digital and print platforms. Key responsibilities include:

  • Perform advanced retouching of images for fashion, commercial, editorial, and product content.
  • Apply professional-grade color correction, skin retouching, object removal, and image compositing.
  • Follow specific client briefs while contributing your own creative insight.
  • Ensure consistency of retouching styles across campaigns and image batches.
  • Collaborate with photographers, art directors, and production teams through digital workflow platforms.
  • Utilize intelligent naming conventions and file organization for effective version control.
  • Meet daily production quotas while maintaining exceptional quality standards.

Work Culture & Environment

You’ll work entirely remotely in a highly organized, deadline-driven environment built on respect, feedback, and efficiency. We prioritize clear communication and creative autonomy, empowering each team member to own their artistic voice while aligning with project objectives. You’ll be supported by an efficient remote infrastructure and surrounded by creatives who believe in elevating one another.

Tools & Technology You’ll Use

Our ideal candidate is well-versed in non-destructive editing workflows and is an expert in industry-standard platforms. You'll be working with:

  • Adobe Photoshop (advanced retouching, layer masking, smart objects)
  • Adobe Lightroom for color grading workflows
  • Wacom tablets or equivalent pen input tools
  • Frame.io or similar platforms for feedback loops
  • Google Workspace or Slack for team communication
  • Project management via Trello or Notion

We provide access to cloud-based asset libraries and versioning tools, ensuring seamless handoffs and efficient collaboration, regardless of your location.

Qualifications & What We’re Looking For

To thrive in this role, you'll need to offer a rare combination of precision-based editing expertise and artistic insight. Key qualifications include:

  • 3+ years of professional image retouching experience (agency or freelance).
  • A polished portfolio that reflects high-end image refinement and color grading.
  • Deep understanding of lighting, contrast, shadow, and skin tones.
  • Ability to interpret creative briefs and translate them into refined visuals.
  • Strong organizational habits for managing multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Confidence working independently under tight timelines.
  • Knowledge of image formats, DPI standards, and digital export requirements.

Experience with remote photo editing jobs, digital post-production, color grading for lifestyle imagery, or retouching high-resolution files will give you a competitive edge.
