2. Cropping and image
Using the marquee tool I selected around the part
of the image I wanted to use. If I was to start again
I press Ctrl + D to deselect the image.
3. Black and White Model
Firstly I went to Image-> Adjustments ->
Black and White
Then I was able to adjust the levels of
colours to suit the picture
4. Black and White Model Continued
Then I went to Brightness/Contrast I chose to adjust the contrast to +37 because
I didn’t think that increasing or decreasing
the brightness was effective in making the
picture look crisp.
5. Crisp Wedding Balloons
Following from the step on
the previous picture I adjusted
the Contrast/ Brightness levels
to -35 and +52
To show a difference in both
pictures adjusting the exposure
did this. I changed the offset
levels to -0.0569
6. Fixed Red Eye
Holding down the ‘Healing Brush Tool’ I was able to select ‘Red Eye Tool’ by
hovering over each individual eye and clicking the mouse it automatically
got rid of the redness and showed the girls original eye colour
7. Fixed Skin
Using two tools the ‘Spot Healing Brush’ and the
‘Healing Brush Tool’ it was able to collect skin colour
pigments from a different part of the girls face and
placing it in selective parts so it would be able to
blend in.
For the ‘Healing Brush Tool’ by pressing down Alt a
target appears and by selecting a place in which the
colour you want you are able to scatter it cross
multiple areas.
8. Blue Eye to Green Eye
Click ‘Selective Colour’ in the image and
‘Adjustments’ bar
A chart of colours appears
and I was able to adjust
individual colours for the eye
colour to change to green.
Some levels of colours were
increased and others were
decreased so that certain
colours were able to take
onto the eye colour
9. Half Pink Roses
Using the ‘Marquee Tool’ I
selected half of the picture
Then go to Adjustments in
the Image bar and select
Selective Colour
By decreasing the Yellow it
automatically started to change
the Roses I had selected to
Pink. To make the colour more
visible I increased the Magenta
(Pink)
10. Light Pink Dress
This was quite easy to create because by using Selective Colour again I was
able to chose the colour that I wanted to change (in this case: Red) and by
adjusting the levels all the colour in that picture will change also.
11. Half Orange Dress
Using the ‘Lasso Tool’ I was able to zoom in
and select that part of the dress that I
needed to change brown
Eye dropping the green I was able to select the part that I
selected. I then increased the fuzziness so it was clearer to
see. By the adjusting the Hue and decreasing it, it had
changed the bottom of the dress to brown
12. Half Tanned Model
Using the ‘Marquee Tool’ I
selected half the models
face. Then using the
Selective Colour I adjusted
the colours of Red by
increasing the Black and
Yellow. I then adjusted the
Yellow colour and
increased the Black, Yellow
and Cyan
13. Bride and Groom on the Beach
Open up the two picture you need. Take the ‘Quick Selection
Tool’ which made the process a lot quicker and once I had
selected the part of the image you drag in on top of the
beach picture.
14. Bride and Groom on the Beach
Continued
Once the two picture are joined I zoomed into the picture so that when I
take the ‘Lasso Tool’ highlighting the parts I do not need would be easier
and clearer once I selected the parts I don’t need and deleted them.
To blend the image into the background image I used the ‘Burn Tool’ and
‘Dodge Tool’ to add highlights and shadows
15. Bride and Groom on Dark Beach
The same stages from the before picture is applied the
same in this picture.
In order for the couple to blend into the dark background I
had to increase the levels of the ‘Burn Tool’
16. Model with Tattoos
Using the ‘Quick Selection Tool’ I selected the bird I wanted to use as the models
tattoos and then dragging it onto the model picture. After I done this I adjusted the
‘Burn Tool’ and ‘Dodger Tool’ so that the tattoo would look realistic and blend with
the models skin
17. Vampire Model
This picture relied a lot on the ‘Burn Tool’ and ‘Dodger Tool’
First by using the Selective Colour I changed her skin tone
to be pale I then used the ‘Burn Tool’ and around her eyes,
eyebrows and cheekbones and defined them more and
made them dark and I also used it on her eyes so that her
pupils were black. Then using the ‘Dodger Tool’ I used it to
so her eyes were more defined and look more like a
Vampire. To finish it off I flattened the image.
