- 4 Simple Steps




01. Have your picture ready. Crop it, re-size. Make it brighter. Soft Light Layer, it. Whatevs, I don't care. Do what you wanna do. :)
I have my lovely picture that you've seen way too many times, of Gabe Saporta from photobucket. :)

02. New Layer >> Soft Light 100% >> #faed54

03. Hue/Sat >>
Reds >>>
Hue >> -29
Sat >> 30

Yellows >>>
Hue >> -6
Sat >> 10

04. Colour Balance >>
This part really depends on your picture. I usually play around with this.. a lot. :)

Midtones >> 18, 0, 32
Shadows >> -13, 0, 8
Highlights >> 0, 0, 21

Merge All.
You're done!
Obviously, you need to play around with everything, so it fits your picture.

Help! My picture came out too red! What do I do?

Don't fear, my dear! Reduce some of the saturation on the Reds Hue/Sat layer, and increase the Cyans, and Blues in your Colour Balance layer.


Help! My picture came out too blue! What do I do?

Though, I'm assuming that the example above, might be more common. If your picture does end up too blue, some how..
Increase the Magentas, and Reds in your Colour Balance layer.

I'd love to see how your picture turns out! And, if you got a question, just ask! :)
