Photoshop How To

So, you’ve shot a portrait and it looks…ok. Good but not great and certainly not at the level of a professional image you might see in a magazine.

Do you give up photography and sell your camera gear? Definitely not! Instead learn some simple photo editing techniques that could turn that so-so shot into a stunner.

In the below video from pro photographer and popular YouTuber Jessica Kobeissi, she gives you a step-by-step presentation of how she retouches and edits a photo using Photoshop CC to create a real eye-catching image. In the beginning part of the 18-minute tutorial, Kobeissi walks you through her editing and retouching process on a portrait. And then at about the 11-minute mark of the clip, she addresses how she does her color grading.
