PRO Photoshop Tutorial

In this 3:00 HOUR Advanced Photoshop Tutorial, you will learn so much your head is likely to explode. Luckily, you can watch it as many times as you want to. We start off by cutting everything in the foreground out, and completely rebuilding the background. We extend the canvas, add more trees, create a completely different sky, add atmospheric fog, blur, and color everything. That is just the background.

We cover in detail how to cut trees out, and what to look for in photographing them. Adding trees back into your image as we have done here can be very difficult, but we have developed methods of making them quickly conform to the scene by altering light and color as well as edges.

Photo Shoot

This photo shoot was absolutely crazy! Included in the download images is a behind the scenes photo that shows just was went on here. Although this image IS a COMPOSITE, the photos of the model were taken and lit on location. In the original idea of the shoot, we wanted her to be floating off of the tree on the left of the original shot. To get our lighting right, I had to go out on a limb (literally).

Holding a light stand with a light on the end of it, connected to a vagabond that was wrapped around my neck, I was also triggering the camera and light remotely via Pocketwizards. Not to mention all this happened over water, at dusk, in the cold. The model was also nude in a public park. EXCITEMENT.

Custom Distortion Mapping

Custom what what?? Great question. What happens when you want to add a reflection to water, but need it to look like it is FLOWING with the water? Water moves, has waves and ripples, and so do reflections on water. Very few people can make this happen, and now you are going to be one of them. Learn how to create your own custom maps that can be used to define exactly what type of waves you would like to create in water.

Fairy Dust

Everyone knows a fairy is nothing without fairy dust. Creating thousands of specks of dust, each unique to the others sounds like a very tedious task. We take the work out of the equation, and get you creating awesome effects much quicker than you thought possible.

Creating Depth

One of the hardest things to do in Photoshop is add depth to an image that wasn’t there. You can do that in a few ways, including adding an artificial blur to the background, or adding atmosphere to separate out layer of depth. In this Photoshop tutorial, we do both. What makes this process complex, is that you have to be able to add atmosphere IN FRONT OF some objects and BEHIND other objects. Because there is no real depth captured in a still photo, you can’t just tell fog to get in between something that is closer to the camera and something that is farther.

To accomplish this you have to have a solid knowledge in layering for depth. Lucky for you, we cover that too. Here is another great PRO Photoshop Tutorial that covers this well.

More I found many new and unique editing and photography ideas that have opened up my portfolio into so many new and fun directions. I really like how every element isn't just pitched as a new trick or gimmick but a group of many final elements that are layered to create a wonderful image. There is so much useful information on the web but it seems as though it is very condensed and clear on this website. The tutorial and clips are very easy to follow and help you produce your own creative ideas.

More Several years ago, when I first got into photography I looked online for tips, tutorials and so on, but there was very little good information out there. Then I took Aaron's class that he used to teach and I started watching Phlearn when it came out and my skills dramatically improved in the whole understanding of photography, along with my photoshop abilities.

I have been using photoshop for 8 years now and ever since I took Aaron's class and watched some of the Pro tutorials, I have become significantly more fluent in photoshop. It's funny because when I feel I understand how most conceptual images are put together and edited, Aaron comes out with a new technique that changes my whole perspective.

More I have a lot of PRO tutorials, and they are all fantastic. The basic phlearn is great, but in the PRO tutorials Aaron goes much more in depth. In addition, in the PRO tutorials you can understand how to create a quality photo from the beginning to the end, and this allows also to understand the creative concept that there is behind all.

Some great skills in photoshop are explained and can be therefore applied to your shots. In one year, thanks to basic phlearn, but much more thanks to the PRO tutorials I bought, I reached a level in photoshop which I would have never thought I would have reached. :)

More I first came across Aaron before Phlearn, when he was teaching "Learn Photoshop Live," and I can absolutely say that my development as a photographer would have been considerably slower if I hadn't found him.

I was studying photography at art school and our Photoshop teachers were just TERRIBLE. I learned more in one of Aaron's classes than I did all year at college and for just a fraction of the price! And I didn't just learn to copy other images. I learned solid techniques that I could use and adapt to create the images I had been dying to create but just didn't know how.

It was great to see some of the Learn Photoshop Live lessons being recreated as Phlearn PRO tutorials, making them even more accessible and affordable. They are phenomenal value for money and I'm always astounded by what I learn.

More At first I thought this PHLEARN guy was off his ROCKER and had a lot of girlfriends. I quickly realized he means business. Phlearn is our go to resources for all things photoshop.

'Phlearn It' has become part of our every day vocabulary. Keep up the great work Aaron...you whacky b@stard.

More Phlearn's free courses trump most of the paid options that are out there and the PRO ones absolutely destroy them. Phlearn is the only place where I've seen practical solutions and examples to the problems that photographers face on a daily basis.

Aaron's presentation of both photography and Photoshop techniques is clear, concise and enjoyable. The value you get from the texture packs and PRO courses is fantastic and they immediately take your finished products to a whole new level.

I love my weekly dose of Phlearn and look forward to the ambitious projects in upcoming PRO tutorials. Keep up the great work Aaron!

More Phlearn is one of those exceptionally rare places where you can learn from someone (Aaron Nace) who is so good at what he does that he doesn't need to be teaching. But Aaron teaches because he loves to and he's a darn good teacher to boot.

The "PRO" tutorials on Phlearn over-deliver every time, sometimes reaching over 3 hours of pure content. These tutorials are vastly superior to anything available on any of the subscription learning sites or in any college.

The latest "PRO" tutorials have gotten scary good. It should be pointed out that only a hand full of people in the world can produce the level of work that Aaron does now. Naming these tutorials "PRO" is appropriate as he's a consummate pro at composite work rivaling photographers like Gary Land or Dave Hill.

Professionals like these aren't teaching their craft at any price. Yet through the Phlearn episodes, Aaron takes you by the hand and and gives you an education you can't get anywhere else (believe me I've looked).

More It doesn't matter if you’re new to Photoshop or if you've been using it for years Phlearn’s Pro tutorials will teach you something new and help you understand the how, when, why of using each technique taught.

I've been using Photoshop for more than 10 years and Phlearn’s Pro tutorial has been the absolute best learning resource I've encountered.

More I appreciate the quality/thoroughness of the pro tutorials here at Phlearn. They are a phenomenal value for the money. I should know -- so far I've purchased 11 of them.

I've purchased many photoshop tutorials and PHLEARN is (in my opinion), are the best value for the money by FAR.Love the entire Phlearn site as well. If there is time in my day to only check out one site, It’s going to be PHLEARN.

Thanks to you and your team for all you do!

More I've been experimenting with Photoshop for 4 or more years now, and I found myself constantly using the same techniques which did not help me progress and did not make my photos look too realistic. After coming across Phlearn, joining the daily discussions in the episodes and getting a Phlearn Pro video, I realized how much more there is to Photoshop. The episodes opened my eyes to new ways of editing a picture and making it stand out. Aaron covers absolutely everything there is to know about the program!

The Flood Pro episode that I have purchased showed me the process of making an image (explanation of the light sources was very helpful), as well as the post production. I learned how to make the model look perfect yet natural, I learned about making a composite and how to create a mood for the picture, as well as many more ways of creating a photograph that I still use today.

I highly recommend getting a Phlearn Pro to anyone who is interested in taking their creativity to the next level!
