About me
One of the world’s longest serving digital retouchers, for over 30 years I’ve worked on every type of image imaginable…from postage stamps to 96 sheet posters, point of sale, packaging, e-commerce, look books, fashion magazines and album artwork… with subjects as diverse as hair and beauty to automotive, jewellery, packaging and advertising campaigns for many of the world’s biggest and best agencies, both in the UK and abroad. Most recently I was based in Mumbai as Creative Director for a UK based company’s first South Asian office, overseeing work for the Indian advertising and fashion markets…it was a very rewarding and memorable experience for me and my family. Now back in the UK, I’m able to quote competitively on jobs large or small….I personally oversee all output ensuring quality is maintained at all times. I’m happiest when allowed some creative input…I don’t charge extra for that… Richard Baker ( the retoucher )
