Diamond Jewellery Retouching

I have a collection of lab-grown diamond and fine-jewellery product shots that need the polished, editorial finish you see on luxury e-commerce sites. Every file already has the correct composition; what I need is expert retouching that elevates the images without ever altering the design, proportions or overall look of the pieces.

The core tasks are:
• Bring out diamond clarity, brightness and authentic sparkle while keeping facets crisp.
• Refine metal surfaces so they appear perfectly sharp, clean and mirror-smooth, with balanced reflections.
• Correct lighting, colour balance and overall exposure so the set looks cohesive across the catalogue.
• Tidy fingers, skin and backgrounds only where they distract, always preserving a natural, professionally photographed feel.

The finished images must read as unquestionably real—no CGI sheen, no artificial enlargements, no warping of prongs or stone shape. High-resolution, print-ready PSDs or TIFFs alongside optimised JPEGs for web will be the final deliverable.

Please include before-and-after examples of jewellery you have retouched that demonstrate this luxury standard. Experience with Adobe Photoshop, Camera Raw and colour-accurate workflow is essential. If you can achieve that refined sparkle and metal brilliance while keeping everything believable, I’d love to collaborate.
