Happy Finish
Happy Finish is a collective of independent digital photographic retouchers working for worldwide clients from central London studios, in Soho and Shoreditch, with full on-site scanning and proofing facilities.
Happy Finish retouchers specialise in particular areas of retouching and, similar to a photographic agency, prospective clients are able to see portfolios of each retoucher and select the person they want to work with.
The individual retoucher's portfolios are on the newly re-launched website, which shows much of their recent work. The Diesel 'Camouflage World' campaign is one to check out closely. MD Stuart Waplington explains: 'The concept is that the world was to be entirely camouflaged, apart from the models. Most people who see the shots think it was set dressing and body paint but it was all done in post; it certainly kept us out of the pub for some time!' -
