Depending on your needs, we also offer custom sizes and aspect ratios, and a choice between standard JPEG or TIFF file formats.
- Do you edit/retouch the images?

For products that need more extensive retouching work (due to sampling issues, being a prototype or other reasons), we offer more extensive retouching services for an additional charge.
