hey cafe cruets Colin Smith here from , Photo shop cafe and this week I'm going , to show you how to combine two , photographs together inside of Adobe , Photo shop it seems like this is an area , that people trip up a lot so I'm going , to do a tutorial on them right now and , just kind of answer all those questions , once and for Allies how do you combine , two photos so there's a couple of , different ways of doing it the easiest , way to do it inside editorship CC is , to click and hold on the photograph that , you want to bring into the other one , then move your mouse right up until you , see the other one up he remove your , mouse or your pointer if you're holding , a welcome over the top if you hold down , the shift key it will Center it and now , release and notice what we'vie done is , we'vie now got both the photographs there , inside of two layers on top of each , other so we can combine them but let's , go back and I'going to show you some , other things so if we choose under here , notice is the thing called application , frame now this is only on the Mac you , won't find this on the windows so if I , turn application frame off notice that , these are kind of just floating and I , can take a photo and drag it into the , second one notice we'vie combined them , okay so let's go back to the application , frame turn it back on again because in , Windows you know I can have that option , you don't have the floating windows like , you do on the Mac okay so here's another , way that we can do is if we choose , window and then we choose range and it , just changes to say two up vertical now , we can see the two documents side by , side click and drag of one we move to , the other one hold shift for centering , and release it so let me just go back , here we're going to go back Tao range , and then we're going to go consolidate , all the tabs and it just takes , everything back to where it was , alright so now I'going to create a , little composite really quickly , combining these two photos so I'm going , to do it this way which is my preferred , method click move up to the tab of the , destination hold down shift release then , again hit ctr T or command T that , brings up the free transform but notice , that the photo that we put in here is so , much bigger , we can't see those handles if zoom out , eventually you'll see those handles , there's a quick way to do that and , that's , is control zero and it would be command , zero on Mac and it will zoom it out till , you see those handle sand now I can go , in the corner hold down the shift key , and drag it out proportionally if I also , hold the option key it will drag it out , from the center and now we can get it to , kind of match there we go and'm just , going to hit enter to apply it all right , so I'just going to go a little bit , bigger now so what we need to do though , is we need to combine these two , photographs together so it kind of looks , like this is over the top of it so we , could actually just paint it out with a , mask that's one way of doing it but'll , show you another way why don't we just , grab the quick select tool now I'just , going Togo over there and notice what , I'vie done is Id rag that I'vie just , selected all this area over the top if I , hit command shift or I'll show you , under here go under the Select and under , select go inverse selection which you , can see is command shift IO Mac ctr , shift on Windows now we're just , selecting our area here now I did't , really matter I just wanted to show you , that because I want to show you how to , impress a selection now we're just going , to create mosque with this area , selected go down to the mask icon and , we're going to click now if we had an , inverse the selection we could get , exactly the same result by holding , option and in clicking and it will mask , the area that we see now but instead'm , just going to click on the mask area and , notice now it's masking it there alright , so I'Mont going to go like super , in-depth here into showing you how to , you know make this absolutely perfect , just want to kind of give you the tips , so nose will get a little bit of a hard , edge we could just do a little cheat , here thing by just going up onto the , layer selecting that layer - double , click Otto open the properties panel if , it's not already open and then we just , push better a little bit and we're just , going to soften that edge see that just , to kind of soften it off and we'vie got , to select it no win the real world I , would used to like to mask and I'vie got , other tutorials and stuff like that on , there but I'm trying to just show you , some basic principles here okay so the , colors here they'begot this kind of red , kind of telecast and on the other side , there is a kind of a blue color cast so , here's how you would deal with that , select out , are Justine of our layers let's grab , the background actually because we want , to change this so how do we match it , here's a quick way we go to image , adjustments and then go down to match , color now here's our match color and , what we want to do is we want to choose , our source and our source is going to be , this image which is like Jackson'sot , JPEG that grabbed from Adobe stuck and , the layer that I want to use now is , actually going to be layer that's the , one I want to grab the colors from so , notice when I do that it applies the , colors from this layer onto the other , one of course right now looks Little , bit strong so we just want to bring it , back and we can do that with the fade , slider so if we take the fade slider , down a little bit we can combine it till , the colors sort of match we can also , play around color intensity which will , make it less saturated or more saturated , and then of course luminously just , lighten it up a little bit or darken it , up to match the image that we want to , match on the top so you can just go down , like that now in real life this is , actually off in the distance it would , have less color than the other one , so here'another little tip you can do , when you'redoing this kind of work and , you want to kind of combine things , together what we can do is we can , actually just add a color over the whole , thing so if we just go here we choose , solid color and we want to give it some , kind of cinematic Loki don'TKO , let's give it a nice kind of Orange , glow and then we change this to this is , the color layer change this to color , blend mode there's other ways we can do , this of course and if we pull the , opacity all the way down and then just , give it a little smooth just give it a , little touch there we go , and notice what it does by dripping this , color down onto the other two layer sit , kind of merges them all together and , gives them this kind of a nice feel so , don'forget if you like this hit that , like button right now become part of the , cafe crew hit the subscribe button and , every single week I'll get you a new , tutorial ownership Light room and , different types of gadgets so anyway , guys add a comment let's get a , discussion going thanks for watching and , until next week I'll see you at the cafe
