Retouching Academy My Library

All-in-One Beauty Retouch Bundle

From beginner to commercial-work-ready retoucher.

This bundle combines 4 (four) of our most impactful courses to take you from your first beauty retouch to a retouching professional trained in industry standards that commercial clients expect today.

▶︎ Created by Julia Kuzmenko McKim and Michael Woloszynowicz, professional beauty and fashion photographers, retouchers, and educators. Every lesson distills decades of combined industry experience into the refined retouching methods we use in commercial work.

 

Who is this bundle for?

Photographers and retouchers with basic Photoshop skills who want to learn beauty retouching at a professional level and produce high-quality work that meets commercial client standards.

You will start with a beginner-level introduction to the tools, techniques, and workflows, then go deep into skin and hair retouching. After that, you will learn how professionals handle client files and client projects, as well as the advanced approach to the techniques you will have learned at the basic level by then.

▶︎ Research in the professional retouching field (yes, that exists in the age of AI, Chen et al., 2025) describes expert retouching as an interpretive process of deliberate aesthetic decisions, not defect removal. Your work has to demonstrate your visual taste, deeper understanding of your photography genre, and artistic judgment, not just technique.

Once internalized through deliberate practice, these workflows open a range of paths for your career:

  • offering retouching services to paid clients along with your photography;
  • in-house retouching roles;
  • creative agency work;
  • or remote freelance retouching work for top brands from anywhere in the world.

Most of our Avenue studio retouchers took RA courses and use our methods and workflows.

“Retouching Academy courses are really the best! They teach you the professional way of retouching: how to make your pictures look perfect, but still natural; how to speed up your workflow and how to organize your PSD files so you will always be able to make any corrections at any stage of your retouching process."
