Maybe someone send me a photo and then I retouch it. So you guys can critique my skills. I'm not quite ready for that yet. I was just getting an idea if this is something worth pursuing later down the line when I'm more confident in my skills.
I touch up a set at least once a week. Most are return clients but some are now and then randoms. All retouching needs vary so there is no set price or method.

No one will challenge you for your proof. Go out pic a picture that you think is in need of improvement and do it. Youre not selling it but just practicing so I dont see a legal issue with practicing and presenting a photo. Just pick a no name chick with shitty skin and do your work. grab somethign with blemishes, tattoos and lighting issues. Touch it up. show it. or just practice in the dark until you like your work.
