ABOUT
"We love working with
Nic Greene.
I’ve known Nic for decades and have worked with him many times throughout the years. He’s currently our teams' main resource for retouching for brand, retail, and OOH projects. Nic is a proven problem solver, a great collaborator and adds value to all our projects. He keeps the communications clear and turns around projects quickly."

My career started with a magnifying glass and tiny brushes, hand-painting photo-composites in gouache. I got what most retouchers don't get upfront: a deep, hands-on understanding of light, color, craft and the history of art and graphics. I came up through commercial retouching the hard way, apprenticing under some of the best in the business, working across thousands of jobs. Experience has shaped how I approach every project: with precision, adaptability, and a genuine respect for the creative work I'm trusted to finish.
Most retouchers know Photoshop; few carry a prepress background as well as a Fine Arts degree — a combination that lets me address both the technical failure points and the aesthetic ones before they become somebody else's problem.
Agencies and studios bring me in when it matters most: a file isn't print-ready, it's about to blow past deadline, or an asset isn't holding up under review. Creatives hand me their files and trust me to "do my thing" creatively. Producers and account leads trust me because they can brief once, walk away, and get exactly what they asked for.
My standard doesn't change whether the output is a photographic asset, a CG render, or Generative AI. I apply a veteran Human-in-the-Loop approach to every deliverable, including dedicated AI QC, so nothing ships that could embarrass the brand. I ensure assets look great and hold up whether it's 4K, Out-of-Home (OOH), Print, or Entertainment production — crossing any uncanny valley.
My focus is industry-agnostic. Whether the deliverable is a theatrical key art campaign or a global brand launch, the review is the same: fresh eyes, fast service, on deadline. I get hired again because I show up for every step of the process.
