How pictures were edited

This is one of the pictures I edited. In it I edited out the background just to leave the model and the instruments. I also adjusted the lighting to fit more with the lighting of the other pictures. I also increased the contrast levels slightly to make features on the face stand out more. The colour replacement tool was used to change the hair colour to a different shade of brown to match with other photos. I also had to spend a lot of time editing the eyes, I needed to get rid of the flash in the eyes and then corrected the red eye that was visible. In order to do this I used the red eye correction tool, then the colour replacement tool to get the iris colour the same across all the images and then use the brush tool to fill in the flash

This is one of the pictures I edited. In it I edited out the background just to leave the model and the instruments. I also adjusted the lighting to fit more with the lighting of the other pictures.

I also increased the contrast levels slightly to make features on the face stand out more. The colour replacement tool was used to change the hair colour to a different shade of brown to match with other photos.

I also had to spend a lot of time editing the eyes, I needed to get rid of the flash in the eyes and then corrected the red eye that was visible. In order to do this I used the red eye correction tool, then the colour replacement tool to get the iris colour the same across all the images and then use the brush tool to fill in the flash which I then had to blur slightly using a Gaussian blur to make the black less intense

Photoshop was the only tool I used for editing my images. In it I used lots of tools including fx effects to create drop shadows, correction tools like the spot healing tool and red eye correction.

I also was able to use different colours to edit parts of the images that were not consistent with other photos. I also used lots of layering to make sure that I could edit separate things without it affecting other areas.

As well as using Photoshop for my images I used it for putting together my magazine, for which I was able to layer text behind text to create shadows on it as well as being able to have more options behind the editing of things like text where I could use specific measurements to make the text go a certain way to fit better on the page.
