Tape and Curl

I applied this tutorial to a picture of my dog as a puppy and and this one to a picture I took a couple of summers ago. I put the two photos on a cork board background and added some drop shadows to make it look for like a scrap book.

Purfume Ad: Spirit

I started by creating my own background by playing with some brushes, then I added (and tweaked) a photo of myself, and an unlabeled bottle of perfume. I then applied a pink color filter to all layers and added the text. Finally, I added and outer glow around the perfume bottle and myself and made a high pass layer.

Glamour- Sepia Tone

I made this by desaturated the image, and changing the variation. I also blurred the background a little bit.


Glamour- Out of Focus

I made this by playing with the Gaussian blur and lighting. I also increased the contrast and saturation around my face and on my lips.


Glamour- Vingette

This is my attempt at a vignette. I lowered the brightness and added a Gaussian blur to the background, and I increased thee contrast on my face.


Glamour- Black and White

I made the image Black and White, then used layer mask and hue/saturation on my lips.

Glamour- High Pass

I add two high pass layers, a Gaussian blur to the background,  and a pink layer on Overlay with a low opacity to give the image color.
