The usual portrait photography looks pretty boring and monotonous. You can make your photo beautiful and memorable by adding an original frame. These can be stars, roses, or just colored lines. Making a frame is not that difficult - you need to have Photoshop, your photo and a drawing of the frame.
Necessary
- - computer;
- - the Internet;
- - browser;
- - frames;
- - Pictures;
- - Photoshop program.
Instructions
Step 1
Search for frame designs using the search engine. If you turn on the search mode "by pictures", then you will see thumbnail images of frames without downloading them to your computer. Frame pictures usually have the extension png, gif, jpg. When choosing files, pay attention to the resolution of the picture. If you download a low-resolution picture, there will be a lack of frame quality in the photo. Choose frames that best match your photographs, both in terms of resolution and color scheme.
Step 2
Launch Photoshop and open the prepared frames. If there is a white area in the free space of the frame pictures, it means that you need to delete it so that the center is transparent. Use the magic wand tool on the toolbar by selecting the white area and pressing the Delete key on your keyboard.
Step 3
Open your portrait, select the area with your image and copy to the frame file, placing the portrait on the background. Move it in the center and adjust the size of the photo using the "Edit" menu item, the "Image" item. Save the resulting photo with a frame using the "Save As" item in the "File" menu. Select the desired quality for the picture and give it a name. It is also worth noting that you can remake a photo several times with different design options and save it under different names. Then compare them and select the most beautiful ones for yourself.
Step 4
You can process in this way not only your own portraits, but also photographs of friends and relatives. Having mastered the tools of the Photoshop program, you can easily correct the slightest flaws and make the simplest photomontage - for example, place yourself in the desert or on the seashore with palm trees. In the future, you will not have similar situations when working with graphic editors.
