The last Adobe Tutorial I am going to explain how to do is how to make eyes brighter in a picture. There are other various ways how to do it but this is one of the ways I like to do it the best and will number off the steps for this one since it can be a little complex. I got this tutorial and learned it from this YouTube video.
Steps
1. Open a portrait picture, where you can edit the eyes of a person.
2. The next step is to duplicate the background layer.
3. You then click the Dodge Tool, which is on the left side of the screen.
4. After clicking the Dodge Tool, you then go up at the top of the screen and go to range and scroll down to highlights.
5.Then in the percentage you will type 50% to make sure the eyes look brighter when you start highlighting them.
6. You zoom into the eyes on the photo.
7. You then use the dodge tool to go around the middle of each of the eyes.
8. After this you can either leave it or bring the opacity down to make the eyes look a tad more normal.
9. After you have it the way you like then you can go to Layer > Flatten Image
10. The very last step is to Save As JPG then you are officially done and just learned how to brighten the eyes on a portrait picture.
I know this isn't one of the best photos I have taken of my niece but It showed her eyes the best and you can see my original picture and then the one where her eyes are brighter and can tell the difference. I forgot to mention as well, that you can actually use the Dodge Tool to brighten teeth as well.
