Photoshop Fill Flash Technique

Photoshop Fill Flash Technique

Photoshop Fill Flash TechniqueAuthor: Daniel KreimerI am going to show you a quick method for adding “fill flash” to your photos, using Photoshop. Fill flash is required when you are shooting a portrait with a bright background scene. If you accidentally neglected to turn your flash on during the shot, you will find your background to be well exposed, but your subject may appear quite dark in the scene. All is not lost - here’s how we can use Photoshop to correct it!Step 1: Begin by opening a portrait photograph where your subject appears too dark in the scene.Step 2: Duplicate the layer: Control-J (PC) or Command-J (Mac).Step 3: Next, open your Channels Palette. In the Channels Palette you will want to select the channel with the most contrast (most darks vs lights). To view the channels, simply click on them in the channel palette, and you will be able to view them (they will appear in black and white). In portrait photography, the channel with the most contrast is usually the blue channel, as it is here in this example.Step 4: Once you have found the channel with the most contrast, we are now going to duplicate this channel. You can easily do this by clicking on the channel, and dragging it down onto the “Create New Channel” icon at the bottom of the Channels Palette. What we are doing here is creating a channel mask, which will be used as a layer mask shortly.Step 5: With this new channel active, open the Levels dialog box (Menu: Image > Adjustments > Levels...).
