When I started writing for Advanced Photoshop Magazine, I quickly found that I was unable to properly go over everything that goes into a complete retouch. So, I started creating videos for everyone who wanted to learn more.<\/p>\n<p>This video series is <strong>not<\/strong> about <em>how<\/em> to retouch the way I do, but <em>why<\/em> I retouch that way. The choices I make change for every image I work on. You will find <em>that<\/em> information infinately more valuable than how to push sliders around.<\/p>\n<p>By filling out the form below, you will gain access to several exclusive and complete classes only available on this website.
