HD Portrait Photo Retouching

I have a set of portrait shots that need to look polished, clean, and ready for display at HD/4 K resolution. Your task is to refine skin and facial details naturally, correct exposure and color, and give each image a smooth, subtly blurred background so the subject really pops. Please keep the overall mood realistic—no plastic skin or over-editing—but do remove minor blemishes, stray hairs, and distractions in the frame.

I’ll supply the RAW or highest-resolution JPEGs as soon as we start. When you return the files, I expect:

• Fully retouched portraits at minimum 3840 px on the long edge
• Background artistically blurred, with edges carefully masked so there’s no haloing
• Balanced lighting, true-to-life colors, and sharp subject detail

Kindly deliver both the layered PSD/TIFF (in case I need tweaks later) and final flattened JPEG/PNG exports. If you work in Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, or equivalent pro-grade software, mention it so I know the edits will stay non-destructive. Looking forward to seeing the transformation of these portraits.
