Clean Portrait Editing

Filed Under: Photography

Here is my Clean Portrait Editing before and after.

Clean Portrait Editing

I brightened and sharpened the eyes a touch using the Pioneer Woman’s bring on the eyes and sharpen this action. I then cleaned up the dirt that was on his arm. I used Paint the Moon’s Sunny Days & Vanilla Pop from their free Bees Knees Photoshop Action.

    That is stunning! Great job! I went to a Photoshop workshop at BLogHer and it was so helpful. That speaker also mentioned the Pioner Woman's actions. I still need to download the free 30-day trial, but I've been playing around with what I learned from the workshop on Gimp. I'm getting there!

The books are super cute and have affirmations at the end.
