I’m aware that there are quite a few who drop by this site on a daily basis interested in or who are at least tolerant of posts having to do with Photoshop.
So I’m offering to you now, a new Photoshop category, that will be published every Wednesday or Thursday.

I’ll start this tutorial by underlining that most of the tricks I use have been self taught or picked up at random places along the way, and the tutorials I share with you follow no systematic order or plan. In fact, they make no sense.

But they might be inspiring.

So let’s start by creating that vintagy portrait look.

1. BEFORE.

2. Mask out the edges and create a stronger “gaussian” blur.

3. Create a brighter edge through lens correction. (-60)

4. Reduce red, add more blue, yellow and more contrast. The vintagy portrait look is ready.

By the way, this is the first photo that proves that I’m in London right now ^.^

It’s 10 AM, Wednesday and I’m ready for my second cup of coffee.
Good morning everyone, 2 more days left and it’s weekend!
