Introducing:
The Only Online Directory Dedicated to Retouchers
A while back I started PictureWax as a way to provide retouchers with a place where they can showcase their work as well as a place where photographers can come to find the best retouching talent in the world. There wasn't anything like this for retouchers which was disappointing, especially when photographers have so many resources like this (think Workbook, Wonderful Machine, Production Paradise.)
There are tons of retouchers all over thew world with incredible skill and talent and it's a shame that there wasn't any place for them to showcase their efforts. This also means if you are a photographer looking for an awesome retoucher, it was going to be difficult to find one. Not because they aren't around but because you have to go to places like Behance and search through all kinds of creatives to find what you're looking for. This requires too much time and often ends in fatigue and provides little to no success.
If you're a retoucher looking to get noticed, go ahead and submit your portfolio for review. If approved, you can sign up for a free Basic account or increase your chances of getting seen by opting for the Advanced membership.
We review each portfolio submitted to ensure PictureWax continues to provide agents, art directors and photographers nothing but the best retouchers in the industry. This is why we can be relied on to showcase the most talented retouchers working today."
