Testimonials

what clients say

I think you are an excellent retoucher to be honest. Would you be interested in coming here to Cape Town to teach a class in my advanced retoucher team?
Yuri Arcurs, CEO of Peopleimages.com

This is the first time I have worked with George, and the images he retouched for me came out beautifully. He understood perfectly the direction I was going for. His attention to detail and artistic view helped a great deal in achieving the images I needed.
Anabella Veress, photographer

I have been working with George for about six months now and I have nothing but good things to say. George’s approach to retouching is that of a very precise technician that understands light, feels mood, and brings incredible attention to detail to each shot he works on. It would not be an understatement to say that George is a perfectionist. George has very strong opinions, which is not shy about stating, and fights for his point of view, knowing when to back off, and execute the job as the client specifies. George is a thinking retoucher that brings added value to each job he executes. His turnaround times are quick and his prices are reasonable. I look forward to a long working relationship with George as we each learn how to better work with one another.
Steve Marsel, photographer

Great retouching work, fast and painless. Had some initial concerns about using a retoucher overseas but it worked out great and seamlessly. He did a lot of images on a pretty tight deadline with minimal direction. Highly recommend using his services.
Andy Trantham, Creative Director at Stilt Media

Anchev is an amazing person. professional, punctual, precise and with good creativity. sure I will work with him again.
William Ferchichi, photographer

George was very professional and very technically skilled. He knew the ins and outs of the proper post-process and offered suggestions and solutions given the photos he was given to work with. The results are very natural looking and not overly overtouched, amazing work and great communication!
Mathew Chan, CEO of ESQUIDO

I have yet to find a retoucher I can rely on- until now. Reasonable pricing for over qualified work. A pleasure!
Chris Desabota, photographer

George is the best and the fastest at editing your images and giving you exactly what you want... I'm a very busy photographer and for an individual like him to understand me and my vision is very important to me. I highly recommend him and I am sure he will create the same magic that he has for me.
Pierre Richard Louis, photographer

George is extremely thorough and takes care to understand his clients' desires. He is technically strong and has an artist's eye. Highly recommend.
David Takata, photographer

You had one job to do..... And you nailed it! Very talented at quality retouching, and also quick in response and professional throughout the whole process. He is an excellent communicator and was reasonable when discussing budget and delivery requirements. I didn't even notice any lag time considering the time zone difference. Would DEFINITELY work with him again! :)
J.Deluxe Photography, photographic studio

George worked on some of my old images and did an amazing job. On top of that he's very fast and accurate in communication.
Rene de Haan, photographer

George is a superb artist who not only provides the best work, but insight and perspective to aid in creating the best overall end state. The level of craftsmanship coupled with his mentorship and guidance made working with him more of an experience, rather than a transaction. Highly recommended!
Brandon Owen, photographer

George has worked on several of my images now and handled them with great subtlety. He is a high-end retoucher that will take every care with your images, producing some great prices of work. Highly recommended and will be working with him again in the future.
Darren Brade, photographer
