Real Estate Photography - Blending Flash and Ambient Images in Photoshop

Are you looking to take better real estate photos?  Good real estate photos are essential when trying to sell a home.  In this video, I’ll show you a technique I’ve been using to blend a Flash image with an Ambient image in Photoshop to create a great looking final image.  

Its no secret that almost all home buyers begin their search online.  If images of a home are not appealing to the buyers, they quickly move on to the next home.  However, with good real estate photography, there is a better chance that a potential buyer will look at the home online and move to the next step in the process - actually reaching out to a Realtor to see the home.  

For this technique, you will need a well exposed image of the room or space using only ambient light.  You will then take the same image using the flash, on camera or off camera, to expose the room.  These two images will then be brought into Photoshop and blended together to create an evenly exposed image that will only require a few minor tweaks to reach the final image.  

Of course there is no ‘right way’ to do real estate photography, this is just what has been working for me and I’ve had good results.

How to SWAP heads in PHOTOSHOP

Sometimes not everyone is looking when you take a group photo.  In this video, I’ll show you how easy it is to swap heads on people in a group photo using Adobe Photoshop.  When you are photographing the group, make sure you take several images of the group so that you can capture each person looking at the camera in at least one photo.  

Next you will bring all of the photos into Photoshop and use layer masks to replace the heads, face, or entire people in your image.  This is an easy way to make sure that everyone is looking at the camera in your group photos.

How To Create Object Shadows in Photoshop

Creating shadows for objects in Adobe Photoshop is an easy technique that helps elements of a composite look more realistic and blend into your scene.  In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to create a shadow for a tree, but you can use this technique for any object.  The shadow will mimic the exact shape of the original object.  Below is a text description of each step.  Lets get started!

Step 1

Open the image you want to create a shadow for.

Step 2

Duplicate layer using the shortcut CMD + J

Step 3

Envoke the Transform tool using CMD +T

Step 4

Bend the object to the correct orientation for the shadow.  Try to match the shadow direction of other elements in your composite.  Use CMD + Click  to select just one of the Transform handles to ‘bend’ the shadow around.

Step 5

Once the shadow is going the direction you want, press enter to accept the transformation.  Next, select the layer by holding CMD while selecting the Layer Preview in the Layer stack.  This will select all of the contents on that layer. 

Step 6

Once the layer is selected, fill it with black using Shift + Delete.  Then Deselect the layer using CMD + D.

Step 7

Make sure the shadow layer is behind the object layer.  Change the layer blend mode to Multiply.  Adjust opacity so it matches other shadows in your image.  Rarely will shadows ever be 100% opacity. 

Your shadow is now complete!

Adobe Photoshop CC - Custom Trees using Pattern Fill

Adobe Photoshop CC has a way to create a wide variety of 3D trees and shrubs that can be inserted into your images!  This is an awesome new feature that is customizable and easy to use.  As a Landscape Architect, I frequently use Photoshop as a visualization tool to help clients see the potential of their outdoor space.  I have found that many clients cannot fully understand a design simply by looking at an overhead plan view of their site.  Great photographs of the existing site combined with Photoshop compositing really help to get the design idea and intent across to clients.

Accessing and using the custom 3D trees in Photoshop is simple.  First, open the image you will be working on.  Next, create a new blank layer above the background layer.  Make the new blank layer active.  To add a new 3D tree onto our blank layer we need to ‘Fill’ the layer by pressing Shift + Delete.  There are several options here on how we can Fill the layer.  In the Fill dialog box, under the Contents section, choose ‘Pattern’.  The Blending section can remain as is.  Toggle on (check mark) ‘Scripted Pattern’.  Then click the drop down menu next to the word ‘Scripts’, select Tree.

The ‘Tree Pattern’ dialog box will now appear and gives you various ways the tree can be can customized.  From changing the direction of the light so shadows match the image to reducing or removing the leaves on the tree, this dialog box is where you would make those changes.  When you have made the necessary changes, click ‘OK’.

The tree will then be rendered and placed on your blank layer.  From this point the tree can be scaled and moved around the image.  It’s important to make sure the tree is placed on it’s own layer so you have the option to change the size and positioning of it later on if you need to. 

While I think it’s still necessary to have a large library of plant material images for anything your composite might need, this feature in Adobe Photoshop CC is really great and will help speed up the time it takes to make composite landscape images.

Before/After Image Processing - Old School Gas Pump

Recently I was looking through some old images and I came across the image below.  It is a photograph of an 'old school gas pump' in front of a vintage hardware store.  I liked the photograph, but I thought it looked flat, dull and needed some cleaning up.  The photograph was taken in Lancaster Pennsylvania back in 2008.

Canon Powershot A80, 7.8mm, 1/500 sec at F/5.0, ISO 50

Step One

First, some background information on this photograph - it was taken with a Canon Powershot A80.  Yes a point and shoot camera!  Regardless of the kind of camera you use, great images can be made with any camera.  You just have to put your mind to it and be creative.  

Adjustments made in Adobe Lightroom's 'Basic' panel

After finding this image, the first thing I did was to bring it into Adobe Lightroom.  As I've mentioned, I keep all of my images in Lightroom.  The first thing I did with the image was to go into the Develop module and make some global adjustments.  I increased the contrast, reduced the highlights, opened up the shadows, subtly reduced the whites and increased the blacks.  I also added a hint of clarity to help tighten everything up a bit.  Be careful with the clarity sliders.  Drastically increasing the clarity can create an unrealistic looking image.  Of course there are always exceptions - for example if you are trying to go for an HDR look for your image, the clarity slider will help you achieve that look.

Step 2

After some quick global adjustments in Lightroom, it's time to bring the image over to Adobe Photoshop for some retouching and enhancements.  I brought the image over to Photoshop using the Cmd + E shortcut.  You can also select the image, go to the menu bar and select Photo > Edit In > Edit In Adobe Photoshop CC (or the version you have).  

First I created a new layer above the background layer titled 'Retouching'.  I went through the entire image and removed all of the distractions, wires, pavement markings, imperfections in the gas pump, and shadows I didn't want to see.

Step 3

Next, I combine the background image and the retouching layer using Shift + Opt + Cmd + E on the Mac (Shift + Ctrl + Alt + E on a PC).  This shortcut makes a new flattened layer of all the layers below it.  

Step 4

The next thing I'd like to do is make some adjustments to help the overall contrast of the image.  I added a curves adjustment layer and created a slight 'S' curve to help darken the shadows a bit and lighten the highlights a little.  Next I added an additional curves adjustments layer to open the shadows up just a little bit.

Curves 1 Adjustment Layer 

Curves 2 Adjustments Layer

Step 5

After the curves adjustment layers, I added a new layer to do some dodging & burning.  The layer was filled with 50% gray and set to the Soft Light layer blend mode.  By using the Soft Light blend mode, the gray will be invisible.  However, any areas that are dodged and burned will appear.  I then used the dodge and burn tools on that layer to darken and lighten various areas of the photo.  This helps bring back some depth into the image.  After the dodging and burning is complete, I lowered the layer opacity to 55%.

Gradient Map Adjustment layer added in Step 6

Step 6

Once I was finished with dodging and burning, I added a gradient map adjustment layer.  I reduced the gradient map adjustment layer opacity to 10% and changed the blend mode to Soft Light.  I felt that it added a little more contrast/punch to the image and gave it that little extra boost. 

High Pass Filter Settings

Step 7

At this point, I felt the image process and retouching were complete.  The second to last step was to add some sharpening to the image.  To do this, I used the High Pass filter.  First, create a merged layer using Sift + Opt + Cmd + E on a Mac.  Next, go to Filter > Other > High Pass to bring up the High Pass filter window.  I used 1.5 pixels for the radius size, but you can play with different amounts to see what works for your image.  Click OK.  The layer blend mode should be set to either Overlay, Soft Light or Hard Light.  Each blend mode will give you a varying amount of intensity of the High Pass layer.  In this case, I chose Hard Light and reduced the opacity to 50%. 

Post Crop Vignette Settings

Step 8

Finally to complete the image, I added a Post Crop Vignette.  To do this, I again merged all the layers together using Shift + Opt + Cmd + E, then went to Filter > Camera Raw Filter.  I then went to the Effects panel and added the vignette.  With the vignette added, the image is complete.  I simply saved it and closed it to bring it back into Lightroom.  Below is the final image I ended up with.  Overall I am happy with the end result.
