Hello, Everyone! Chere here with another video tutorial. This time we’re going to talk about how to scrap with imperfect photos. I’m going to share three simple tricks for improving photos that aren’t great quality. I’m not a photo editing expert, but I’ll show you what I do to get better results. I’ll also talk about what not to do with a bad photo, like distorting it or making it larger than its original size. I’ll use three example photos to demonstrate my tips, and I’ll show you how to add a border around your photo to keep it looking neat. I’ll also mention some Lightroom presets and overlays that can help you get beautiful results. By the end of this video, you’ll know how to use the Auto Color Corrector in Photoshop to make your photos pop, and you’ll understand why it’s important to keep your photo’s proportions correct.
I hope you’ll find something new in the video. I can’t wait to see some of your photos on your pages! Have fun telling your stories.
Warmly,
Chere
Thanks, Chere. I tried auto color correction on that first photo and it had a really amazing effect. On the last one, I used both the auto color correction like you did, and also auto levels, and that was a good start. Then I duplicated it twice, once with overlay and once with screen. I think it turned out pretty well. (I saved a screenshot of the video to work with the photos.)
