Gentle Retouch:

At Gentle Retouch, every image is treated individually, with care and attention to the photographer’s vision and the brand’s identity. Our goal is to enhance the story and beauty of each image naturally, without overworking it.

About Us

Gentle Retouch was founded by Yana Tokarchuk and Nata Samsonova, who bring complementary expertise to every project. Yana’s 15 years in fashion photography give her a deep understanding of composition, color, lighting, and mood, while Nata’s 19 years as a designer and art director in media ensure every image is crafted with purpose and attention to the viewer’s experience. Together, we specialize in retouching, compositing, and finishing for print and digital, creating images that feel natural, polished, and true to the original vision.
