Welcome to the first lesson I’m going to write in my Photo Editing 101 series of tutorials, which will cover some basic tricks and tips for editing photos, especially portraits. I get a lot of inquiries on how to perform basic functions that you see done over and over in Photoshop, so rather than repeat myself all the time, I can just link to my tutorials. So, in this first tutorial of the series, I cover how to get that smooth airbrushed skin effect, how to airbrush color to enhance eye color, create that famous pencil sketch effect from a photo, how to enhance a photo by tweaking contract levels, and finally, how to isolate specific colors in a black and white photo.

Read the tutorial here on the P2L Publishing System.

Thanks and enjoy!
