Drew J Robertson portrait

Hey, I’m Drew, a photography retoucher with a reputation for delivering images that delight. I provide expert post-production consultancy, dedicated to helping you deliver high-quality work – on time and to budget – that enhances the narrative of your image.

I’m personable, with a high work-ethic and naturally technically-minded. My disciplined eye excels at colour-grading and creating work fit for purpose – all while staying true to the essence and authenticity of the image. My background in photography and print means I have experience at every stage of the image-production process, and the collaboration-skills, language and technical know-how to help you deliver.

I’ve worked on many award-winning global campaigns and retain an extensive client list, including some of the biggest companies in NZ and Australia, and numerous boutique brands. I was the lead retoucher for many years at a top New Zealand agency, and I’ve tackled every challenge a project can encounter!  

With over twenty years experience working in the creative industries in New Zealand and the UK, I’ve retained a lifelong love of all things design. I have a BA(Hons) in Design and Illustration, love London’s Southbank, Infra-red Nike AM 90s and am a part-time potter with a passion for ceramics.

If you think I can help realise your vision for your next project, let’s discuss!
