Oct 7 Preparing your photo -Photo-Shop Mini Lesson

1. Use “Curves” in Photoshop to brighten photos

There are a few ways to brighten your photos, but first we’ll start with “Curves.” To access Curves in Photoshop, you can either go to Image >> Adjustments >> Curves, or press “command” and “M” at the same time. A little graph will pop up, like the one below. To brighten your photo, just drag the line on the graph slightly higher, similar to what mine looks like below. You don’t need to drag it very far to start seeing great results! When you like the brightness, click “OK.”

Quick Tip: If you’re not seeing any changes, then make sure the “Preview” button is checked.

2. Adjust the brightness.

To find this tool, go to Image >> Adjustments >> Brightness/Contrast. Then, drag the “brightness” scale a little to the right until you like the outcome. You can also adjust the contrast, if need be.

3. Crop to feature face
