Skin Smoothing Camera Raw Style

 

Flawless skin can be key to successful portraits of ladies. Make their skin creamy soft by tapping the K key in Adobe Camera Raw 5 to call up the Adjustment Brush. Set the Clarity slider to –40 for starters. Brush over the skin you want to smooth. Want it smoother? Drag the slider farther to the left. This is a great way to get proofs out quickly without losing gallons of time with the Healing Brush tool in Photoshop.

    How do I add someone to a photo? Also how do I change the body style of a person? I am just now learning to use my Photoshop program and it’s the hardest thing I have ever had to learn. Is there an easier way to learn it? Please let me know. Thanks

    I tried to watch this tutorial in Chrome and IE 8 and the video just won’t come up. Is it just me?

Viewing and Basking in your Image

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
