Description

Professional Retouching is complex business that many, even great photographers struggle. That’s why it is so important to learn this from the right people in the right way.

I am Marcin Mikus, author of this course. I am professional retoucher specializing in Fashion, Beauty and Commercial retouching. My work can be seen in variety of fashion magazines worldwide. I know how to retouch fast and in the right way. That’s why I am the best person you could have to teach you lingerie and swimmwear retouching. 

Lingerie and swimwear are one of most desired types of photography - yet, one of the most difficult when it comes to retouching. Learning this the right way, puts you above the competition. 

For Photographers: 

Except retouching I am myself huge enthusiast of photography, that’s why I understand how time taking process is to organize session, shoot, and select images. And after all there are images you need to retouch and deliver! I know what means to retouch efficient and at the same time non-destructive and natural, creating great atmosphere and dynamic lights on the images! 

I will teach you how to process your Raw files and then teach you how to clean them up in photoshop - fast and natural. I will practice with you Dodge & Burn process in my special training lessons so you will not spend hours during the Dodge & Burn process. And what is most important, I understand how the lights and shadows work. I will show you how to adjust contrast and polish lights, howt o work selectively just on the model - not on the background. 

And of course color grading and skin tones. One of most important things in such a photography like lingerie and swimwear. It is your task to create amazing color composition. I will share knowledge on color theory, so you will know your color choices will be on point. You will know how to create desired skin tones, how to warm them up. Or how to work on background. Just to make sure - you deliver outstanding images! 

For Retouchers:

This is my thing! I have been retoucher for a good years and I have been working with variety of photographers. I know how this works looks like, and I know what companies, agencies, or magazines require from images. I will teach you everything you will need to know to work as a retoucher.

The recording is in 720p viewing is out of focus making it an eye sore to watch, why record at 720p and not the standard 1080p? There is no option to increase to 1080p.

96 minutes until to get started. Then again, introducing to "what we will do". GET STARTED. Don´t talk all the time about "what we will do." This is very very frustrating and annoying.

Excellent, I've learned a lot! Marcin knows how to dig on details and make the most difficult parts looks simple and crystal clear. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a straight path towards retouching images!

This course was a good match for me as it covers the very topic I'm looking at getting into: Beauty Retouching. Marcin does a very good job in giving an intro to things that need to be known before actually getting into the act of retouching. Already I've learned a couple of things that I wasn't really aware of before starting, like simple human mistakes in photography (Tags sticking out of clothes, etc.)

A little basic for me right now but i'm hoping it will get better once we get into photoshop. I do understand you have to teach the basics for some people

Great course as always from Marcin. A lot of basics for those who start (which I did not need). But the lessons about skin and lights are just great. Seen some other retouching courses on the web and this one is the one to choose if you are thinking of being professional!
