Julia Kuzmenko McKim
Julia Kuzmenko McKim juliakuzmenko.com

Hi, I’m Julia Kuzmenko McKim, a commercial beauty photographer and retoucher, and the founder of Retouching Academy. For over a decade, I’ve shot and retouched campaigns and e-commerce imagery for brands like Urban Decay, Hourglass Cosmetics, Pat McGrath Labs, Lululemon, and many others.

Everything I write here comes from my production and post-production experience: planning, shooting, working with creative teams, retouching, and delivery.
