Create stunning personal art photos

This tutorial is mainly about photography post-production. After taking the photo, we have to process the details according to the actual effect of the photo, such as color, background, overall beauty of the character, etc. to create a dazzling and moving effect.
Original picture

final effect

1. Open the original image and copy the background layer to - Background Copy. l Brighten the background copy, use a mask to slightly paint back the local layers, try to keep the layers around the eyes and mouth, do this multiple times, but not all at once, so It's not easy to grasp the levels.
2. Use the burn tool to partially sketch around the eyes, nose, and mouth to increase the outline of the facial features in the photo. Generally, when the range is darkened, the saturation will also increase when it deepens. When the range is high light, it will turn gray while deepening. You need to control the scale yourself.

3. Give the photo a tone, just like applying a foundation to your face. Create a new layer directly, fill it with the color you like, and use a mask to spread out the layers evenly. Merge all layers into the background layer. (Tips: If you feel that your brushing is uneven, you can perform Gaussian blur in the filter in the mask, and it will be naturally excessive.)

4. Add some accessories to the photo. It is to increase the painterly feeling of the picture. There are small flowers in the photo. You can click here to download the flower brush. Most people like romance. Of course, flowers can easily express a romantic atmosphere. Choose some pictures of small flowers. Use a picture with a color similar to the base color, and use soft light to directly embellish the flowers in the background layer, paying attention to the layers and changes in virtuality and solidity.

5. In order to match the integrity of the picture, the headgear in the shape can be appropriately changed. I directly use the material to focus on the flower. And this can also draw out the hierarchical relationship.
6. Now that the large contrast is related, there is an intermediate layer. Use the material directly on the top layer. Give the layer transparency appropriately. Use a mask to erase the layers, and also pay attention to the changes in virtuality and reality.
8. In fact, the picture is enough here. In order to add some vitality and emotion to the picture, add appropriate text modifications. I think a good picture can speak and tell a story.
