Color Enhancement in Adobe Photoshop

Check out the picture above from Beth's wedding that I added color enhancement to all by my lonesome. Yesterday, I learned how to do color enhancement for photos in Adobe Photoshop without a class on photography no less. I actually thought it would be alot harder than it was. The hardest part is using the lasso tool to outline and cut out the object you want in color. The reason I started playing around with Adobe was because Grace and I were picking out our enlargements from our wedding photographers and I wondered how tough it would be to color enhance some of our photos from that special day. We have the rights to all of our pictures from our wedding which means we have the ability to change anything or to take them and have them printed at a later time. We liked having that as an option so when looking for a photographer we picked someone that gave us that benefit. Of course, it is only a little bit late that we are just now getting our enlargements:)! Nevertheless, our photographers have been patient with us. We are grateful for that!

Grace also took the time to learn too! She has already gotten so into it that she has done more pics than me. She has already sent them out to her friends and family. Maybe we can become a photography team together and go into business. LOL! Digital photgraphy really makes things alot easier and even more cost effective these days making that option available to alot of the little guys. Below you will see some of the pictures that Grace has color enhanced and even added a few extra flares to.
