100% Hand-Retouched · No AI Filters · From $0.50/image

E-Commerce Product Photo Retouching, Done by Hand.

Your customers can’t pick the product up, so your photos have to do it for them. We retouch eyewear, handbags, footwear, cosmetics and pure-white catalog packshots in 16-bit Photoshop so glass looks like glass, leather shows real grain, and every SKU matches your physical swatch on a Tuesday-morning phone screen.

Product photo retouching for online stores that sell on trust

A product page has just seconds to answer one question: is this exactly what I think it is? Dust on a lens, a crooked pair of shoes, a dull bag photo or a color that misses the swatch all quietly push buyers toward hesitation—and returns.

Built for e-commerce brands, commercial studios and Shopify/Amazon teams shipping weekly drops who need every single frame checked by human eyes at 200% zoom.

Eyewear & Sunglasses Photo Retouching

Eyewear glare removal · Anti-reflective lens tinting · Crisp hinge & temple detail

Lenses behave like tiny mirrors—capturing softboxes, windows and the photographer in every shot. Completely blanking out the glass makes frames look like flat paper cutouts, so we isolate distracting reflections while crafting a natural AR sheen gradient.

What goes wrong in eyewear shoots

  • Softbox blocks and photographer silhouettes trapped inside curved lenses
  • Uneven tint depth between left and right polarized or gradient lenses
  • Micro-scratches, fingerprints and nose-pad dust magnifying at zoom
  • Blurred engraving inside temple arms or dulled metal hinges
  • Clean AR glass sheen gradients
  • Sunglasses glare & tint matching
  • Acetate & titanium edge cleanup
  • On-model eye glare removal

02 Packshots & Composites

Handbag, Wallet & Leather Goods Retouching

Strap compositing · Texture-safe symmetry · Grounded shadows

Structured handbags, nylon crossbodies and leather SLGs rarely sit upright without propping pins, stiff stuffing lines or crooked shoulder straps. We isolate clean shapes by hand, blend separated strap photography seamlessly, and preserve every pebble grain and top-stitch.

Typical bag & leather catalog fixes

  • Floating or stiff straps shot separately and composited seamlessly
  • Uneven body slouching, zipper ripples and skewed corner geometry
  • Surface scuffs, lint on woven nylon and brushed-metal buckle scratches
  • Washed-out pastels or inaccurate leather dye hues on white sweep
  • Strap & handle compositing
  • Natural ground & drop shadows
  • Stitching & fabric grain intact
  • Metal hardware reflection polish

Multi-Color SKU Variant Recoloring

Shoot one physical sample · Produce 10 exact Pantone/swatch SKUs

Shooting every single color variation of a seasonal bag, sneaker or accessory line doubles studio time and reshoot budgets. Send one clean shot plus physical fabric swatches or Hex/Pantone targets—we mask by panel so textured weave, white pockets, logos and black hardware remain completely untouched.

  • Channel-accurate Pantone matching
  • Multi-zone masked panel splits
  • Weave, logo & hardware protection
  • Zero reshoot turnaround speed

04 Footwear & Sneakers

Shoe & Sneaker Photo Retouching

Pair symmetry · Patent & suede clarity · Dust-free outsoles

Pairs sit at slightly different heights on set, patent leather catches chaotic overhead softboxes, and fresh display shoes pick up fine lint immediately. Across 40+ SKUs, small differences make your catalog grid feel uneven.

How we keep footwear grids uniform

  • Left and right pair symmetry balanced without rubbery Liquify distortion
  • Toe-box crease softening that retains natural leather grain and stitching
  • Outsole dust, glue residue, midsole scuff and suede nap cleanup
  • Consistent horizon angle & natural sole shadow across all SKU views

Hand-Drawn Clipping Paths & Pure #FFFFFF Cutouts

100% Pen Tool paths · Multi-path layer exports · Marketplace-ready padding

Automated AI cutout tools melt translucent hinges, leave grey fringes around edges and eat subtle drop shadows. Starting from $0.50/image, our artists trace every product silhouette manually with crisp Bezier curves in Photoshop—delivering razor-clean #FFFFFF backgrounds, transparent PNGs or layered PSD paths ready for Amazon, Shopify and wholesale portals.

Why hand-drawn Pen Tool paths beat AI auto-masking

  • Zero fuzzy semi-transparent halos on pure white product grids
  • Semi-translucent acetate, glass & acrylic edges traced accurately
  • Optional separate Path 1 (Outer Silhouette) & Inner Component Paths
  • Exact canvas ratio, centering and margin rules matched across every SKU
  • Pure RGB (255,255,255) cutout
  • Natural, drop or glass shadows
  • Transparent PNG & WebP exports
  • Amazon, Shopify & Etsy sizing

Label legibility · Specular glass highlights · Scratch-free screens

Glossy jars, etched fragrance bottles, electronics and home appliances pick up fingerprints, harsh specular hotspots and muddy label contrast. We keep foil typography razor-sharp, smooth glass highlights gracefully, and isolate clean edges for both white packshots and dark hero creatives.

  • Glass & dropper reflection control
  • Crisp foil stamp & label alignment
  • Liquid hue consistency across range
  • Electronics screens & chrome polish

Marketplace-ready specs & bulk consistency without drift

Bulk production usually fails in one predictable way: the first ten frames look crisp and image #90 drifts. We lock approved exposure, margin padding and color on batch #1, then inspect every deliverable at 200% zoom.

Trusted by production leads & commercial studios

Direct feedback from brands and e-commerce teams relying on consistent human retouching across Europe, Scandinavia, the UK and the US.

★★★★★

“We run large seasonal apparel drops with strict ghost mannequin guidelines. Shoaib’s clipping paths and collar alignments are always spot-on on the first pass. We barely have any revisions, which makes my production schedule run so much smoother.”

Peter Helskog Studio Production Manager, Scandinavia
★★★★★

“Fast, honest, and high quality. We usually upload raw folders to Drive at the end of the day and have web-ready exports waiting in the morning. Even when we throw tight last-minute turnaround requests at him, he delivers without compromising on details.”

Toby E-Commerce Brand Operations Lead
★★★★★

“I rarely leave feedback unless someone genuinely exceeds expectations. We sent over a tough high-volume commercial lookbook under a brutal deadline. Shoaib handled the entire batch with great consistency and got revisions back to me within hours.”

Frequently asked questions

Everything online brands, photographers and catalog managers ask before sending their first e-commerce batch.

How much does e-commerce product photo retouching cost?

Simple hand-drawn Pen Tool clipping paths and pure white (#FFFFFF) packshot cutouts start from $0.50 per image. Detailed eyewear glare removal, strap compositing, footwear pair alignment, cosmetics glass cleanup and multi-colorway SKU recoloring are quoted custom depending on complexity and monthly volume. Send 1–2 samples for an exact quote within hours.

Can you remove glare from glasses without making the lenses look fake?

Yes. Removing 100% of reflection makes lenses look empty like cardboard cutouts. We clear distracting softbox squares, camera silhouettes and dust while crafting a subtle, true-to-life anti-reflective glass sheen gradient.

Can you make a pair of shoes symmetrical without losing leather grain or suede nap?

Yes. We balance left and right shoe height, heel angle and toe-box creases cleanly by hand while preserving 100% of natural pebble grain, suede texture, knit mesh and outsole stitching.

Can you recolor one product photo into multiple SKU colorways?

Yes. Send one photographed master sample alongside fabric swatches or Pantone/Hex codes. We apply targeted panel masking so body colorways update cleanly while white pockets, stitch threads, logos and metal hardware remain untouched.

Do you use automated AI filters or bulk cutout presets?

Never. Every single image is retouched manually in 16-bit Photoshop using hand-drawn Pen Tool paths, frequency separation and manual dodge and burn—so zero plastic skin, zero blurred grain and zero jagged auto-masking halos enter your storefront.

How fast can you deliver large seasonal product drops?

Standard orders return within 12 to 24 hours. High-volume seasonal drops of 150+ frames typically complete in 24 to 48 hours using our Style-Lock reference check, with overnight shifts matched to US, UK and European shoot schedules.

What file formats do I send, and what will I receive back?

Upload camera RAW files (CR3, ARW, NEF, DNG) or TIFF, PSD, JPG and PNG folders through your private Cloudflare R2 Client Portal (/portal) or Drive/Dropbox/WeTransfer. We return layered PSDs with Pen Paths, flattened TIFFs or marketplace-ready JPG/WebP files in sRGB, Adobe RGB or print CMYK.

Can you follow strict Amazon, Shopify, Etsy or wholesale portal specs?

Yes. Send your exact aspect ratios, fill percentages, canvas dimensions (#FFFFFF pure white or custom gray), file naming rules and folder taxonomy—every image exports ready for immediate upload.

Are pre-launch collections protected under NDA?

Yes. All files remain strictly private for your production only, served via encrypted client delivery, and we sign mutual NDAs before you upload pre-release samples.
