Classes



What services do you offer?

You can find many examples of our retouching in the portfolios on this website. We also do special effects, green screen composites, background changes, seniors, maternity and infant, business card and websites photos, social networking profile photos, and just about anything else you can think of. If you have a special project or unusual request don’t hesitate to ask!

How do I send you the images I want retouched?

You can email your image(s) to quote@crwmedia.com or you are welcome to use our dropbox. Tip - If submitting more than one file you may zip them together and upload the zip as a single file.

How do you take payment?

We typically invoice via PayPal. You are able to pay with a credit card, debit card, or your bank account. If you would like to mail your payment please contact for instructions.

How long will it take for me to receive my completed images?

Turnaround time depends on the job size and what we have in queue ahead of you. It can be anywhere from one day to two weeks. If you have a deadline let us know- we do our best to work with you. Rush services are offered when our queue is long.

What if I’m not sure which images will come out the best? Can you help with selection?

Yes, we understand that sometimes it takes a trained eye to determine which images will have the most potential in editing. We are happy to lend this eye and just ask that you narrow down to the best of your ability before submitting the batch to us for selection.

Will you work with me even if I am not in the modeling or photography industry?

Absolutely! We work with anyone and everyone and value our clients from all walks of life. Doesn’t matter how old you are or what the occasion is. We are happy to be a resource for you.

Do you publish your client list? Will my photos be shown on your website?

No. We do not disclose the names of the companies or people we retouch for and your images will never be shared or posted without your consent. We are very serious about your privacy.

Do you offer discounts for easier work or bulk orders?

Yes. Our rates are circumstantial and we try to accommodate any reasonable budget. Please contact us with your needs.

Are you available to retouch locally or on set?

Yes. Please contact Christine for availability and investment.

What is appropriate experience level for someone attending your retouching class?

The class is comprised of simplified retouching methods that are effective for most any level of retouching. It is easy for beginners to pick up and beneficial for experienced retouchers to speed up their processes while seeing improved results. These are the techniques you see in our online portfolio and you will learn Christine’s workflow, start to finish. Look through the images on this site… these results are achieved in an average of 20 minutes or less. If this is something you would consider an improvement then the class is ideal for you.

Can I make a request for you to come teach in my city?

Cities are scheduled based on expressed interest. If we hear from enough people in any given region we will add that city to the schedule and open registration. Let us know if you would like to see your city scheduled. If you have multiple people interested make sure to mention it!

What if I cannot make a class but I really want to learn?

In many cities if we have multiple people unable to make the scheduled class or the class sells out we will accommodate with a 2nd date. These are not usually posted so you must inquire. CRWmedia also offers online classes and private lessons anytime that is convenient for you. Click here to be contacted about scheduling your private online retouching class.

What exactly is an online retouching class?

CRWmedia now offers instruction for anyone, anywhere! The online classes are available to anyone who wants to learn from the comfort of their homes; all you need is a computer and an internet connection. You will simply log in to a virtual meeting room where you will be able to view Christine working in Photoshop on your own computer screen, as well as converse and interact directly with her as your teacher. The desktop and examples you see on your computer during your session are exactly the same as what is projected if you were to attend a class in person. These online classes are one-on-one and you will be able to determine what material is covered if there is anything you’d like to learn specifically, otherwise Christine will teach her regular work flow as taught in the glamour retouching classes nationwide. These are completely customizable to your schedule, pace, skill level and needs as a retoucher. Click here to get more information or to schedule your online class.

Can you be hired to come teach for another organization or group?
