Faces

Ok- so here is what you do- I will have a video for you tomorrow so if you get lost you will know what to do!!!

1-  Open the mood photos-  DO NOT CROP!!!!   You are only going to run an action on the straight on photo.  The side photo is just used for the silhouette.    Run Perfect Portrait 2 on it.  Once done FLATTEN YOUR IMAGE!

2.  Double click on your background layer to unlock it.

3.  Place the side photo on a new layer on top of your edited face.    Turn the opacity of the layer down to 50%- move and free transform the side photo split the face in half.  Turn the opacity back up to 100%.

4.Using the quick selection tool, select the background of your side image.  Select inverse.   Go to select- modify- Smooth and choose 3 pixels.

5.  Hide your side layer.

6.  Click on your Layer 0-   Make a layer mask- magic it works!

7.  You now need to create a filled either white or black layer and move it BELOW your face.

8.  Crop your photo now to 5x7 or 8x10.

9.  Using your brush "tweak" the layer mask to fix anything that looks off.

10.  FLATTEN YOUR IMAGE.

11.  You can either leave it colored or change it to black and white - I used a black and white that added a vignette to it.
