Adding Textures to Photos in Photoshop

Why use Photoshop? One of the most fun and creative ways to utilize Adobe Photoshop (as opposed to many other editing programs, including Lightroom) is Photoshop’s ability to use multiple layers. Adding textures to photographs or areas of a photograph are an excellent opportunity to add character, depth, and a uniqueness to an image!
In this class, we will demonstrate and work with images in a step-by-step process to take a photo from Lightroom (or anywhere on your computer), import into Photoshop, add a texture, and then save the file. We will be providing some textures that we have created for each student and will also provide images for you to practice on. This class will specifically cover…
•Layers
•Masking
•Blend modes

The tools we utilize here don’t need to end with just textures. The concepts we will cover in the class can also be applied to other areas–changing the opacity of a layer or image, creating masks which allow you to change one specific area of a photo, and more. If you have an interest in learning more about Photoshop, this is an excellent opportunity!

No previous Photoshop knowledge is required, but we recommend bringing a laptop for this class with Adobe Photoshop CC installed. (Adobe Lightroom Classic CC is helpful if you use Lightroom.)
