When photographing a portrait, even a professional artist can make the wrong exposure and take a picture that his client may not like. Incorrectly selected exposure values can change the tone of the face as well as the color of the hair. But the final photo lends itself to processing, so all is not lost.
Necessary
Adobe Photoshop software
Instructions
Step 1
Complex editing of the entire image is used to improve complexion or skin texture. Open the photo in the graphics editor Photoshop. Create a new layer for this photo by clicking the corresponding button on the layers panel. Then click the Filter menu, select Noise, then Median. Set a value between 5 and 10. The value you set depends on the quality of the photo. Everything is learned by comparison, so try different options.
Step 2
Add a layer mask, use black as a base, paint lines over the contours of the face. A soft brush is perfect for this action, try not to make unnecessary lines (grab the lines of the eyes and eyebrows). Do not try to make absolutely even, because it's just a layer mask, but don't randomly.
Step 3
Next, you need to reduce the Opacity value to 55-75 percent. This value can be changed in the layers panel.
Step 4
In addition to this change, you can retouch the color of the iris. the eyes express the mood of the person at the moment of posing. Create a new layer for this photo. Use a hard brush about the size of the iris. Select the blend mode Blend mode (Hue -> Softlight -> Overlay). After that, save all changes by pressing the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + S.
