Photo Editing & Retouching
Catalogue work lives or dies on consistency. A hundred product shots that are individually good but subtly mismatched in white balance and shadow will make a storefront look amateur in a way no single image reveals.
Also called photo retouching, product photo editing, image editing, background removal, clipping path, e-commerce photo editing.
How we approach photo editing
We do product retouching and cleanup, background removal and clipping paths, compositing and shadow work, colour correction to a defined standard, and the marketplace-specific formatting that Amazon, Shopify, and Etsy each require.
For volume work we agree a spec first — background value, shadow treatment, crop ratio, colour targets — and then hold every image to it. That specification is what makes batch two match batch one, months later.
Turnaround for standard catalogue work is measured in days rather than weeks, and per-image cost at offshore rates is what makes full-catalogue refreshes affordable rather than perpetually deferred.

Photo Editing questions, answered
How much does product photo editing cost per image?
It is priced per image and scales with complexity — a background removal on a simple product is a fraction of the cost of a multi-layer composite with reflections. Offshore rates are what make full-catalogue work viable; we quote on a sample batch so you see the actual number before committing volume.
What turnaround can you hold at volume?
Standard catalogue batches are typically two to four business days. Once a spec is agreed and the first batch is approved, larger volumes do not slow down proportionally, because the decisions have already been made.
Can you match our existing catalogue?
Yes, and this is the most common request. Send reference images and we will build a spec that matches your current background, shadow, and colour treatment so new batches are indistinguishable from old ones.
