I have a batch of portrait images that need a balanced, cinematic color grade. The lighting is already decent, but I want skin tones to feel natural while the overall palette adopts a consistent, stylised look that still preserves fine detail. You’re free to work in Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom or any other professional-grade software you prefer, so long as the final files remain fully editable. When you respond, focus on the depth of your experience with portrait color grading—examples where you transformed the mood of an image through tone, contrast and subtle hue shifts will help me gauge fit quickly. Deliverables I expect: • High-resolution JPEGs ready for publication • Layered PSD (or equivalent) with all color work clearly organised • A brief note on the main adjustments and any LUTs or presets created I’ll supply RAW files once we start; please keep them confidential. Looking forward to seeing how your expertise can bring these portraits to life.
