Technical guide

    I used photo shop to edit my photos, this is one example of my photo before and after editing.
    to create this change I used a number of tools on photoshop, here is a guide of how i achieved this  
    effect.
    1. crop photograph using the crop tool
    2. click on image, then adjustments and select contrast
    3. change the contrast of the photo so it looks more intense and solves exposure problems. Playing   
    around withe contrast and brightness off a photo is nearly always beneficial. you can also use
    curves to get this effect.
    4. after this i then went to image, adjustments and then colour balance.
     i increased the use of the colour blue in my picture as it was a running theme throughout my
     magazine.
    5. I used the spot healing tool to cover the few imperfections in the skin to her complexion was
    more flawless.
    6. I wanted her glasses to be completley black, so began using the clone stamp on the darker parts of
    her glasses and the black off her top to create blacked out glasses.
    7. Finally i went back to image, adjustments and saturation. I increased the saturation to bring more
    colour into the picture.
