5 Simple Steps to Create Stunning Portraits in Photoshop

Photoshop can be a significant program to utilize, especially if you’re a beginner. Since there are countless options available, it is really important to find the perfect editing software that will both spare your time and improve your photos.

If you are working for your client or your own project, Photoshop tricks will help you a lot. It is not only easy but also fun to work with.

Using these tools, you’ll have more opportunity to deal with other things, complete more editing works, and generate more revenue.

So today we are going to discuss 5 simple steps to create amazing portraits in Photoshop.

1. Replace Color

Replacing Color will add a charming contrast to your picture and make your subject’s face stick out. Go to Image > Adjustments > Replace Color. Select the area you’d prefer to edit (recommended to choose the skin area), and smoothly drag the Lightness slider to the right. If the outcomes are excessively dramatic, then change the opacity of the layer to around 40% to make a milder impact.

2. Selective Color

I basically use Selective Color to alter explicit tones in my portraits. From obscuring lip tones to fixing uneven skin tones, Selective Color will assist you with getting the best outcomes. Go to Image > Adjustments > Selective Color, click on the Yellow area, and experiment with all of the sliders. I generally focus on Black and Yellow for skin tones. To darken your subject’s lip tone, move to the Red segment and drag the Black slider to the right.

3. Gradient Tool

The Gradient tool is used to add a sparkle of dynamic colors to the photographs. The results are frequently striking and reviving. To get this effect, click on the Adjustment symbol at the lower part of your Layers box and select Gradient.

Select a gradient and click Ok, then change the layer mode to Soft Light. This will make the gradient a bit transparent. At that point, change the opacity of the layer to around 20% – 30% for an attractive impact.
