About me

Hey, I'm Kirsty and I'm a Creative Retoucher, Video Post-production person and a recent graduate of Master of the Arts in Commercial Photography. I've been lucky enough to work with editorial, advertising and commercial clients for over 8 years now. I worked on briefs for clients such as Neal's Yard Remedies, L'oreal Professional, SCS, The Guardian Weekend mag and many more. Always on the look out for new projects so please don't hesitate to get in touch!
