Alexandra Rafael Martínez,
Retouching Manager, Head Retoucher - NY Office
Alexandra is an artist and retoucher from San Juan, Puerto Rico. She obtained her BFA in Photography from Rhode Island School of Design and relocated to New York, where she has spent over a decade specializing in high-end retouching for photographers, blue chip galleries, post-production studios, and magazine corporations. She’s a die-hard Ricky Martin fan, loves all things luxurious, and has a penchant for round animals.
FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH PHOTOGRAPHY: Alexandra’s first (and favorite) memory with photography is recording road trips with her mom, then sitting down together to look over her “work.” Her first camera was Barbie’s 110 film point & shoot, before transitioning to digital with Nintendo’s Game Boy Camera.
GUILTY PLEASURES WHILE RETOUCHING: True crime podcasts or [not] holding back tears during heartwarming reality TV. No guilt – all pleasure.
