Portrait Enhancements




For the shot of my grandparents I tried out the tutorial on clone stamp tool to enhance skin tone. I also added some levels, sats, vibrance, and a photo filter. For the second photo I followed the match color tutorial. I used another photo that I really liked to match the color. I also added levels, sats, vibrance, and a lens correction vignette. For the last photo I tried out the replace color tutorial to turn the white background to violet. I then enhanced the photo with sats, levels, vibrance, and added a lens correction vignette. I took all of these photos with either a fixed 50mm lens or a 16mm wide angle lens and a Canon T1i.

  2. These are great! I like the color change photo that you did and how you added the purple to the background. It really helped the photo stick out!

  4. I really like the change you made in the last set of photos. The purple is so cool and is a nice complimentary color to the red. But because you went with purple it really made her stick out a lot more.

  5. Very clever change on the wall. It brings the subject to a whole new level...making the subject "pop". great work!
