8 Simple Steps To Giving An Airbrushed Look To Your Portraits

Published by:  Photographic
Tutorial Preview:

This exercise is going to show you a simple trick that will add pizzazz to your portraits. It's a little twist on the old Photoshop technique of creating a soft layer on top of a sharp one and erasing through the parts you want to keep sharp - namely, eyes, lips, etc. It will help a great deal if you have a pen and tablet; but if all you have is a mouse, you can just adjust opacity instead of varying pen pressure.

Hopefully, this little procedure will easily be added to your Photoshop bag of tricks and create a look your clients and friends will love.
