In this course, Julieanne shares the fundamental creative and technical concepts behind photo compositing, from creating diptychs that juxtapose images in separate “frames,” to assembling multiple exposures and strengthening visual impact with textural information.

Here’s a short tutorial on how to add textures to photographs (both locally as well as selectively) in Photoshop.  Enjoy!

If you’ve ever needed to create flames, be sure to check out the new Flame Generator filter in Photoshop CC. This new feature is designed to render realistic flames on user-defined paths. You need to create your path first (using the pen tool or any of the shape tools), then choose  Filter > Render > Flames.

A few weeks ago I had a unique opportunity to fly over the San Francisco Bay area in a small plane with my friend Bryn. James, the pilot, was fantastic and the weather was, thankfully, very cooperative. I’d never been in a plane with the doors off, but with the safety harness secure, and a few reassuring words, off we went! Here are a few of the resulting images from the 90 minutes in the air.

If you’ve ever created a special style or “look” to apply to your images using multiple layer adjustment and blending options, then the ability to create and export Color Lookup Tables (LUTs) in Photoshop CC could potentially save you a significant amount of time.

This video demonstrates how to use the enhanced Scripted Patterns and Fills in Photoshop to add a picture frame and border to your images.

Of course, you can combine any number of frames to make your border unique.

In the past, Photoshop Content Aware technology primarily looking at texture, not color. This video demonstrates how the new Color Tolerance setting can result in much better matches when blending colors and gradients in images.
