When working with large numbers of photos occasionally I will try batch processing a black and white conversion over a folder of images, but my problem always was the simple desaturate command in Photoshop never really did the trick, the photo(s) always looked way to flat. Using this technique we will boost contrast using blend modes prior to our final black and white conversion and the beauty of this method is it is the same for every photo so making an action takes seconds.

Soften and Smooth Skin! This is a huge thing when working with studio photography, models, or anyone really. Smoothing skin can really add a lot to an image, but if you do it the wrong way it really can look terrible. We will also look at selective sharpening by using a mask to limit the sharpened region.

Here is a great little effect that adds a whole lot of "mood" to an image by softening and increasing contrast and also features a vignette around the focal point of your choosing. The beauty of this technique is that by using adjustment layers we have full control over the final effect's strength and color. This one is a great tip for Photographers of any type.

When I first began editing images in Photoshop I quickly realized the best way to edit images was to do as much as you could on separate layers and keep everything as editable as possible. This tutorial covers how I prefer to retouch eyes and really enhancing eyes that need only minor retouching or none at all. Have fun with this one and be sure to rate, comment and subscribe if you enjoy it!

Changing hair color in Photoshop(Brunette to BLONDE, not Brown :P) is quite popular, but transforming a head of dark, or brown hair in not so easy, matter of fact most people would skip right over after a try or two and find a blonde or settle for something that does not look that great. In the following video we will tackle transforming a brunette to a full blown blonde and we will use a technique that will be very re-usable on all types of images.

Creating Black and whites is a great way to simplify or shift focus in a photo. You have seen great black and white photos out there in Magazines and in galleries on the web, Black and whites are everywhere. We will learn just how to make great black and whites in a matter of minutes. We will start with the basic Desaturation of an image, learn why that is not-such-a-good way to create black and whites, and experiment with several different methods before settling with the best black and white conversion. After the conversion we will look at vignetting, tweaking the channels, and subtle image toning. All of that plus the usual load of little tips and tricks will all be in this video, watch, learn, enjoy!
