The document summarizes the editing process for a photo shoot of a subject named BEX. First, the vignette was adjusted and spot lighting was used to draw attention to BEX rather than the background. Then, the burn tool was used to darken the background and push BEX into the foreground. Next, the dodge tool was used to brighten BEX's hair and make the image less flat. Additional filters were applied and adjustments made to further bring BEX forward. The photos were taken in a similar style and of slight movements to allow them to be combined into a collage with an amateur, photo booth-style feel.

2.  The first stage of editing this picture was to manually adjust the vignette. This
was brought from 0-50. Spot lighting BEX and pulling the readers eyes to her
rather than the background.

3.  In order to draw BEX forwards the first stage was to darken the background. This
was done using the burn tool, inside photoshop. This darkens the
background pushing BEX to the foreground. The effect can be seen above.

4.  The next stage required the dodge tool this brightens areas bringing them
forward to the audience. This was used on BEX’s hair to allow it to ‘pop’ making
the image less fat and bringing the readers eyes to her. The finishes effect can be
seen above.

5.  On this photo first the Burlesque filter was added. Next I enhance the photo the
bring BEX forwards again making the picture less flat.

6.  These pictures were purposefully taken in the exam same style with slight
movements from BEX in this way they can be combined in a collage style. They
are purposefully the original take to give them an amateur feel as if they were
taken in for in a photo booth.
