Retouch a Bland Model Portrait in Photoshop

Portrait Photo #1



Portrait Photo #2

                                               
                                                                     Portrait Photo #3



Portrait #1 is of Tina Nguyen, portrait 2 is of Kelsey Joeseph and portrait #3 is of Mr. Simns.
I first started off with selecting the area i wanted to focus on hence her face and hair.
I had to get rid of the original background so the face would be a main focus. I then had to refine
the edges as best i could so they weren't so jagged. I started to touch up any of the skin flaw an blemishes they had with the spot healing tool. Going back on to the first layer I removed any bags they had underneath their eyes. Putting another layer over I then removed any hotspots there were with the patch tool. Step 8 is makeup. The fun part. I used the paint brush and created a layer for each area. (eg. eyes, hair, lips) I adjusted the opacity on the layers so it wasn't a dramatic. I didn't adjust the hair much but I did not do their eye colour .This is a brief overview of how I did my images.
