What it is
What is product photo retouching?
Product photo retouching is the process of cleaning and refining the product within a photograph. Common issues include dust, lint, fingerprints, scratches, scuffs, small dents, harsh reflections, hotspots, wrinkles, creases, loose threads, stickers, price tags, and minor photography artifacts.
Good retouching removes distractions without changing what the product actually is. That distinction matters for eCommerce. Your customer should receive the same product they see in the photograph. The goal is not to make your product look artificial. It is to remove photography and handling distractions while preserving the details, texture, shape, and characteristics of the actual product.
What's included
What a retouching job includes
Dust and lint cleanupWe remove dust, lint, fibers, specks, small particles, and fingerprints while preserving the natural surface of the product.
Scratch and dent repairWe clean up appropriate surface scratches, minor scuffs, handling marks, and small imperfections from manufacturing, handling, transportation, or photography.
Reflection and hotspot controlWe reduce distracting glare and hotspots on glass, metal, cosmetics, jewelry, electronics, packaging, and glossy surfaces while keeping natural reflective qualities.
Wrinkle and crease removalDistracting creases on clothing, bags, textiles, leather, packaging, and soft products are cleaned without flattening natural material texture.
Distraction removalLoose threads, temporary stickers, price tags, labels, and other shooting artifacts can be removed where appropriate for a cleaner final image.
Consistent finishFor large catalogs we apply a similar cleanup intensity, surface treatment, and visual finish so the full set looks cohesive.

FAQs
Common questions about product photo retouching
What is product photo retouching?
Product photo retouching is the process of cleaning imperfections and distractions from a product photograph while preserving the actual product's appearance.
What imperfections can you remove?
Common examples include dust, lint, fingerprints, minor scratches, scuffs, small dents, harsh reflections, hotspots, wrinkles, loose threads, stickers, and price tags.
Will you change my actual product?
The goal is to clean the photograph without changing the actual product. Genuine product characteristics should remain visible.
Can you remove scratches?
Yes. Minor scratches and scuffs caused by handling or photography can often be cleaned up.
Can you remove reflections?
Yes. Harsh reflections and distracting hotspots can often be reduced, particularly on glass, metal, cosmetics, electronics, and other reflective products.
Can you remove wrinkles from clothing?
Yes. Distracting wrinkles and creases can be cleaned while retaining enough fabric texture to keep the garment realistic.
Is product retouching the same as background removal?
No. Product retouching cleans the product itself. Background removal isolates the product from its surrounding background. Both can be performed together.
Is product retouching the same as color correction?
No. Color correction focuses on color, white balance, exposure, and tonal consistency. Product retouching focuses on surface imperfections and visual distractions.
Can you retouch a whole product catalog?
Yes. We can establish a retouching standard and apply it consistently across large batches.
Can you retouch Shopify product images?
Yes. Product images can be prepared for Shopify and other eCommerce platforms according to your required dimensions and file specifications.
Can you retouch Amazon product photos?
Yes. We can retouch product images intended for Amazon listings. Final files should still follow the current requirements for your specific Amazon category and listing.
Can you work with RAW files?
Yes, depending on the workflow. We can review the files you have and recommend the best format for the retouching process.
How much does product retouching cost?
Pricing depends on the complexity of each image. Basic dust and spot cleanup requires less work than detailed reflection, scratch, dent, or wrinkle correction. Bulk catalog projects can be priced based on volume and agreed editing standards.
