Digital Headshot Retouching by Sam Tabrizi

Sam is by far the best retoucher I’ve ever worked with. It’s clear he takes his time with his work so your images are thorough but not over done like many in-​house lab retouchers who rush through hundreds of photos a day trying to make a deadline. He used to work for a lab so he has the experience and skill needed but being independent allows him the time to make sure you have the best personalized quality. I highly recommend him and I am very picky.

Sam is the best retoucher there is.
He’s extremely professional, thorough, has an artistic vision and a quick turnaround. Plus, his work looks so natural. It’s like it was never even retouched. The images retouched by him look strikingly good. He makes images pop.
What’s more is that you can take your photos to him and he’s willing to work on them with you. You can consult with him on the fly as he works on your images.
He is also very kind and helpful and extremely accommodating when it comes to giving appointments.
He works on images very diligently making sure they are nothing less than perfect. His images are a reflection of his work ethic and his passion for retouching. He will make you fall in love with your images all over again.
Sam, I wish you all the success and happiness in this world…
Thanks a million for your EXCELLENT work!!!
May God Bless You &
May All Your Dreams Come True!!!

Sam retouched my photos and did an AMAZING JOB. He went above and beyond my expectations. His exceptional work will truly bring out the best YOU in your photos. :-)

I was referred to Sam many years ago and have stuck with him because not only is he talented, but he’s also very easy to work with.
Sam keeps with the times and makes sure that his techniques are for industry standards. Not that his retouching is solely for head shots, but since this is what I utilize him for most, I find it very important to have someone who knows what the industry standards are at the time.
My photos are always striking when they come back from Sam but they’re also realistic. The photo represents the person I bring into the audition room, which is all that we can ask for!
Sam is fun, talented, has an amazingly quick turnaround, and is an all around industry leader in his field. I couldn’t recommend anyone more highly!

Sam’s the man. Hes more ot a magician than a retoucher in my opinion. Super kind and fun to work with. I appreciate all this work and kindness.

Sam used to work for Reproductions and is usually found through word of mouth or in my case by his interview with Backstage. However, his work is much better and it’s far cheaper.
I was given the choice to meet with him or do it online and I chose to meet with him. He already had the minor color corrections made on my headshots. Then he quickly and deftly proceeded to make adjustments with everything else. The whole process flew by and he is a master at what he does. He also takes your input and truly considers it. In the end, my headshots looked much better because he made the colors pop and removed extraneous makeup while making sure the pictures still looked like me.
If you want to save time and money all the while getting the best possible results in retouching then go to Sam. He’s one of the few that knows what he’s doing and the results showed in my retouched headshots.
