Photoshop Tutorial - A better Presentation for your Pictures
Posted by pauljordan222 under: Photography; Tutorials .
As you might know, last week I was helping my wife with some shots for some editorial pictures that she needed to send to her agent.
On this post, I want to show you how I use photoshop to make a better presentation of my pictures. I learned a technique similar to this with Scott Kelby.
I will start with my last photo-session that I did last week:
First, I open the picture in photoshop and make all the adjustments (levels, color correction, etc)
Next…
-I create a Stroke (inside - size 10 - white),
- a Canvas Size width and height 0.1″ (black)
- another Canvas Size width and height 1″ (using some color from the picture - on this case a dark green)
- another Canvas Size Height 1″ (just the height and just to the bottom)
- a Stroke (inside - size 10 - white)
- a Canvas Size width and height 0.2″ (black)
And for last I choose some font and write down my information…
I like to print few 4″x6″ and leave them at the GYM, Hair Salon, etc…
If you need any help… just send me a note. OK?
