Tenacious Creations

 We are going to take this nice photo here on the right and through the magic of photo shop turn it into a hot sexy glamorous picture like you find in magazines. If you want to follow along click on the picture to get the full size original that I started with.

 As there are many different things we need to do to achieve our final image. I have broken this down into smaller tutorials to make it easier for you to follow along. In some cases you may not want to or need to use all the steps outlined here.

1. The Eyes- I find that if you can make the eyes draw the attention of the viewer the over all effect of the portrait is that much better. So it is a good place to start.Click Here to go to the Eyebrow Shaping and Eye Enhancing Tutorial
2. The Teeth and Smile - With time, drinking coffee or smoking our teeth tend to yellow. There is a whole market of dental care products out there just to whiten your teeth. Well I’ll save you the expense and show you how to do it in photo shop. Click Here to go to the Whitening Teeth Tutorial.
   
3. 
   The Hair - We need to add some shine and body to our models hair. This is a subtle effect but it really does add to the over all image. Click here to go to the tutorial on adding body and shine to hair.
4. The Skin - Now we start on the human body’s largest organ, the skin. Ever notice in magazine ads how flawless and smooth the models complexion and skin are? We thats not just good genetics, the photo has been airbrushed to look that way. Well in the old days it would be airbrushed, but can achieve the same effect in photo shop.
