I Heart Faces: Fix-It Friday

It's been a while since I participated in IHF's FIF.  The photo today was so adorable, I just couldn't resist editing the photo of these 2 beauties.

I Heart Faces: Fix-It Friday

I did not much to this photo, as I found it difficult to work with: the photo I downloaded was a small JPEG file. Oh, how I wish they would put the RAW files on IHF for us to download & edit!

My edits:

I lightened the skin & eyes then made the background B&W.

For some reason, Fridays seem to be busy days for me, but yet I find time for IHF's FIF photos. It's so fun to edit a photo then check out how other photographers edit the same photo.

Here is a photo that was originally taken by Andrea Riley:

I Heart Faces: Fix-It Friday

Every Fix-It Friday at IHF, I am always wondering if the photo this week will be a boy or a girl. Oh, I was so excited it was one of each... & Twins, too!! (I am still wanting to find some twins for my photo sessions, folks!!)

I am just looooooving this picture of these precious little 6 week-old twins, children to JaimeLee Candidly Grateful.

My edit:

I added some gaussian blur to the skin, converted the pic to CS's B&W (70%), adjusted some levels, added a 70% High Key, cropped, then added a frame. Very simple.

It's that time of the week again... our turn to learn new editing trick from other contributors to I Heart Faces and to play along as well.

This week's photo was submitted by Shelle from Mommy Can't Sing.

Here's the original:

My Fix-It #1... I adjusted levels, curves, colour balance, then added gaussian blur to soften the face. I then did some adjustments to lighten skin & eyes and give the skin some glow.

My Fix-It #2: I converted the pic to B&W but did some colourizing. Not to crazy about this one as there is so much noise on the pic that I wasn't able to remove.

Fix-It #3: I darkened the background, added a gradient and a texture (just for something different) then brought in some colour.

Fix-It #4: I like this one the best. It's basically the same as Fix-It #3 but I removed the texture then added some vignette & borders.

I Heart Faces: Fix-It Friday

This is my first entry for iheartfaces "Fix-It Friday" in which we attempt to fix a photo taken by another member on this website. This was fun, playing around with photoshop & trying to "fix" another person's photo.

This photo of Violet is from Jessie at The Lucas Zoo. Isn't she just darling?!!

The Original:

Fix-It #1: I added a vintage action; adjusted vibrance, levels & curves; added a texture, vignette then a frame.

Fix-It #2: This is a less-dramatic fix... brightened, increased colour with actions; dodge/burn; soften skin, add vignette then frame.
