Help With My Photos

Good morning everyone, I have not used a forum like this before, so please bear with me

I'm a dancer (in a Gentleman's Club) and I have to take photos for work...Nothing smutty,or nude,just stuff to load onto a Facebook page. However I'm rubbish at taking the photos, always end up with junk in the background, looking really amateur. I have tried using the edit photos option on my phone, but seem equally useless at that lol. If I post a distinctly average attempt at a photo on here,can you guys show me the best that can be done with it?

Kindest regards

Nicola

Request: Can These Photos Be Saved?

Hi everyone. I am desperately hoping someone might be able to help. My grandfather went to my cousin's graduation yesterday and had 2 photos taken with him. He has emailed me the photos, asking if there's a way to fix them as he would like a memento of the day. I have no idea if these photos can be saved, but if you can I would truly appreciate it....



Sourcing Photos.

Good evening. I'm new here- not sure why I didn't have an account long ago.

I have a question- I'm aware of many sites that offer photos for free personal use and even commercial use however, does anyone know of any sites that have free photos for commercial re-sale permitting that the photo itself has been manipulated to the degree in which it is not longer identifiable as the original image?

I know that this is a stretch- as I understand and respect that no one does anything for fun and sharing however, it's a shot.


Thanks for taking the time to read this over.

Professional Graduation Photos Are Ruined - Because Of One Fake Eyelash. Please Help.

Hi everyone,

I have no idea how to use Photoshop and I don't have Photoshop. But a friend has suggested I make a request for help on a Photoshop forum.

Long story short, every single graduation photo is ruined because of the fake eyelashes in my right eye. I didn't apply it perfectly, and throughout the day, it kept dropping down. No one, not my family members, not my friends, not even the photographer, bothered to tell me my eyelash was completely ****ed. I think the photographer thought I had a legit lazy eye :(

I can't do graduation again and I'm really upset that the photos are just worthless because of this little thing. I don't even want to show my huge family in Thailand. Had I known it was this bad I would've tried to do my eyelashes again.
The digital copies of the professional photos also cost almost $200. Such a waste now. :(



It's not so obvious from a quick glance, but when you actually look at it, it's quite shocking.

Early that day, it wasn't that bad, and I guess the angle helped. ;/

There are a total of 25 photos, but if I can get 4 favourites, or maybe even 2 photos fixed, I would be so, so grateful.
I've asked my boyfriend, but even he seems unwilling because apparently "it'd take a whole day". So I understand if no one can help me, but even a bit of advice or redirecting to someone/another forum would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Where Do You Get Good Stock Photos For Free?

Where can you find very good stock photos the people can actually use?

For example in this speedart, where could I find a similar cloudy background?

Image Edit Request (i'm Prepared To Pay For It)

Hello,

I'm an amateur photographer and did a photo shoot for a friend.
I used a colored background (1 color) but I now want to change that background to white.

I already tried myself with Photoshop and as you Photoshop experts definitely know, changing most of the background is very easy but it's not that easy to do it in such a way that the 'borders' of the person look natural

I'm looking here for someone who is good in this (so definitely no Photoshop amateur) and who's willing to do this for me. I'm prepared to pay a small fee (via Paypal) for it because I want it to be perfect.

I'm talking about 6 photos.
Please note that I don't want the background color to be changed everywhere to 100% white, the (small) shadows of the background (like in the corners of the photo) and the 'gradient' in the background have to stay so it looks more natural.

If you are very experienced in this and if you are interested in this small job, please send me a PM.

Thanks a lot in advance,
Kate

Photos - Wrong Aspect Ratio ??

I have clicked around 300 photos and all turned out to be normal as intended except few every now & then (9 photos) where the subject tht is standing is appearing to be compressed, i.e, wrong aspect ratio... whereas background seems perfectly normal... I have no clue how this can happen....

Pls provide your input..... Also if it can corrected in Photoshop CS6

How Do You Think This Awesome Effect Was Achieved?

Hi all,



I've been seeing this advert around London a lot recently and really like the effect they've used on the photos. I had a go but can't work it out.

I'm an intermediate level Photoshop user so have a basic understanding of most aspects of the programme so however you think it has been done just let me know and i'll have a go at it on a few of my own photos and post back.

Thanks for the help

Raw To Jpeg Much Darker Conversion.

Hey Guys,

I am a freelance Photographer who primarily shoots night events (shows, clubs, etc.) and I am having some issues with my images coming out darker when I save them as JPEGS. I am shooting with a Canon 60D (Adobe RGB) and at the moment editing the photos in the Adobe RAW Editor (Adobe RGB). When I am editing the photos in the RAW Editor they appear to be in 24bit, but when I save them as JPEG (Adobe RGB) they appear to be more like 32bit (much much darker). Any ideas as to why this is happening? I would really just like the finished product to be what I'm seeing in my RAW Editor.

---> Side note, I just realized the images are only darker when viewing them through Windows Photo Viewer and Facebook (where the photos will primarily be housed). Does anyone know why the images are vastly darker when viewed through these applications? This is definitely a viewer problem. So how can I make my images look how they are supposed to while using things like Facebook?

Thanks in advance,
Matt

The first screenshot of the image in the RAW Editor, the second of the JPEG in Widows Photo Viewer.

***UPDATE***

None of my replies appear to be going through so I'll just post them here. Before posting this thread I attempted to save them as sRGB but it still had the same affect. I also just tried Steve's Save for Web method and have the same issue.

I believe I am saving them properly as JPGs (I will supply a screen shot in this post). MrTom, when I say 32bit what I meant was if you are editing an image in Photoshop and you change the color mode from 8bit to 32bit, it looks similar to the drastic darkness as seen with 32bit.

A mini solution I have discovered is to +70 the Black levels, this evens out the photos to roughly what I was going for once they save. I would greatly prefer an actual fix, but this will do if all else fails.

Thanks for all the feedback!

Pewdiepie Look

Hey guys, I'm new at this forum and I came here just because I've searched so much on the internet for some video or tutorial that help me make this effect above. I know that have many posts around this effect but none of them seems to be this one that the YouTuber PewDiePie use to do on his photos.

That's a mix of oil painting and unsharp mask perhaps, I don't think he uses Topaz plug-ins... I can get close but I can't get equal, can someone help me? Thank you already!
