Hello guys I am Vaibhav and in this tutorial I am going to show you how to create a high key portrait using Photoshop CS6. Last time I discussed about Creating Sun rays in Photoshop which is really an important tutorial for Landscape and Travel photographers. For this tutorial basically what I am going to do is to use various Adjustment Layers to achieve desired look. I am going to use Adjustment layers, refine edge tool etc.

STEP 1
Open your photo in Photoshop and press ctrl+J/cmd+J to duplicate your layer. You will not see any difference in image but when you open your layer panel (press F7 to open) you will see a new layer with name as “layer 1”. I am going to rename that layer as “duplicate layer”.
