Overview

Learn how to edit composite images in Lightroom and Photoshop

In this tutorial, Helen Williams will be sharing exactly how she edits her composite images in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.

The tutorial covers the full editing process of three images. The first, a simple two image composite where the technique is used to remove a Magmod MagBox from the scene. You will learn the fundamentals of layer masks and brushes and how they can be used to hide and reveal parts of each image to create one finished image.

The second edit is a three image composite where both the bride and groom were lit individually. Helen not only covers the editing process but the importance of making sure your subjects stay perfectly still when shooting.

The final edit consists of 13 images/layers as a large group composite shot on a real wedding day. In addition to the editing process, Helen explains how and why she saves all of her layers and work that has been done in photoshop before flattening the image to exporting back into Lightroom. There’s nothing worse than spending a lot of time on a composite edit to realise that you have made an error when it’s too late and you have to start all over again!
