Replacing a person in a photo

Ok guys, Newbie here. I have no business tyring to do this, but it's for an 60th wedding anniversary announcement for my inlaws. I have a couple pictures of the happy couple in a group. I managed to cut the group out and just leave the two and add solid background, then I cropped the image. Now I have two pictures, one the husband looks better, one the wife. I want to move the husband to the better wife. I have the picture I have already cropped on the editor and have added on a new layer I cut out the husband. On the other picture of the good husband, I have, on a new layer, cut him out. Now, I can't figure out what to do next. I'm wondering if I should have done the changing of people before cropping??? (Otherwise how am I gonna get the husband the right size to match the wife?) Anyone have some EASY steps for this beginner??

Don't give up!  This is basic PSE stuff.<br />If I understand correctly, you have the husband and wife on separate layers but they are different sizes?<br /><br />You can simply resize one to match the other by resizing the layer: Activate the Move tool and, holding down <Shift> drag one of the corner handles to resize (Shift maintains the layer's proportions).

  • Replacing a person in group photo

    Our family Christmas photo turned out great for 8 out of 9 people. We have a daughter with Down Syndrome who was having a rough day, and her picture is dismal. What process do I use to "replace" her image with a more attractive one? I have PSE3.

    How about this?<br /><br />http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1BqqjuGuUphOpVHlacoCQHbhAsBrDK0<br /><br />Edit to fix link and explain how.<br /><br />I used CS3 but if you have Elements 3 or above you can do everything I did.  You will, however, have to do a layer mask workaround.  I didn't think about Elements not having native masks it when I took the screen shot.<br /><br />The how...<br /><br />1. I duplicated the background...your corrected version.<br /><br />2. I applied Filter<Blur<Average to the duplicate.<br />  <br />3. I changed the blend mode of the Blur/Average layer to Linear Light 100% opacity and masked out everything except her head and hair.<br /><br />4. Next, I added a Photo layer.  It's the Warming 81 with the density set at 21%.  The layer itself is set to Normal 100%.<br /><br />5. I added a few highlights to her face and hair.  It's just a few touches of white paint blurred with the layer set to Overlay blend mode 54% opacity.<br /><br />6. I ran the blur brush along the edges of her hair.  I did this on a blank layer.  The layer is set to Lighten blend mode 100% opacity.  This helped to blend her hair a bit.<br /><br />Chances are the receipe will need adjustment when it comes time to work on the full resolution image. Hopefully, it works on the full resolution image.<br /><br />Just in case you need it...here's a link to a masking workaround tutorial:<br /><br />http://www.myjanee.com/tuts/elements/elemask.htm<br /><br />Terri

  • I can't find the tutorial on replacing a person with another image from a different photo.

    I got an email with a link to a video a long time ago that showed how to remove a person from a group photo and replace this person with an image of them from another photo.  It does not seem to be in the videos on my Phtotshop elements 9 list within the program.  Does anyone have a link to this video so I can save it and rewatch it?  Thanks

      Click on the link below and go to: Easily Create the Perfect Photo
    It’s designed for several people but it should work with just one person in the shot. After viewing the tutorial open both images in Full Edit and go to:
    File >> New >> Photomerge Group Shot

  • How do you remove a person from a photo and replace her with another person

    How do you remove a person from a photo and repalce her with another person.

    There are many tool and "tricks" to accomplish this manipulation. However, depending on the image one technique might be more appropriate than an other. And then there is the question of how to do it "skillfully". For example, the shadows in the person that is being substituted might be different than in the original image creating the obviously "photoshopped" look.
    Doing an Internet search on your posting title brings up lots of examples.

  • I have 2 iPhones (1 personal, 1 business) but use the same Apple ID. I have replaced my personal iPhone but it has restored to my work iPhone. How do I restore it to my personal iPhone settings?

    I have 2 iPhones (1 personal, 1 business) but use the same Apple ID. I have replaced my personal iPhone but it has restored to my work iPhone settings (photos/contacts/messages etc.) How do I restore it to my personal iPhone settings?

    You're welcome.
    First check to be sure the new phone is running the same or higher version of iOS as the one you backed up (Settings>General>About>Version).  If it isn't, you'll need to update the iOS first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the options, choose Restore from iCloud backup and follow the prompts, choosing the backup of your personal phone to restore to.
    Be sure the phone is connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.

  • Can you edit a person from one photo and add them to another photo?

    Can you edit a person out of one photo and add them to another photo?  Like if you need the head shot from one photo to replace closed eyes in the other photo?  Thanks.

    Thank you very much!  Does this require software to be purchased?  I'm new to Photoshop.

    Subject: Re: Can you edit a person from one photo and add them to another photo?
    Welcome to the forum.
    Yes, this is done often. You will need to create a Mask of that person, to separate them from the background of the original Image.
    I like to do this with a Layer Mask, as it offers control, and really does not alter the Image, so you can go back and make changes.
    Let's say that you have Image 01 w/ the head of your subject, and want to place it into Image 02. In Image 01, make a rough Selection. I would include a bit of extra background, as we will take care of that in a moment. With that Selection active, Copy the head shot. Go to Image 02, and Paste it. It will Paste in its own Layer. Ctrl+T (Free Transform) can be used to Scale and also position that Layer with the head. Once you have that Scaled and positioned about where you want it, create a Layer Mask. In QuickMask Mode, just paint in the additional Mask to remove all traces of the background that came in with the head shot. As you can paint OUT, and also paint IN the Mask, you can work on this, as many times as you wish - even next year.
    For getting that Layer Mask looking good, work slowly, also see this http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/photoshop/l/blrbps_5agirl.htm.
    I've got another tutorial, that addresses the hair area, and will post that, when I find my bookmark.
    Good luck,

  • How can I adjust the skin color of only one person in the photo (Elements 11)

    How can I adjust the skin color of only one person in the photo (Elements 11)?
    Thanks for your help.

    From your question, I assume you know how to do it for all persons :
    Menu : Enhance/Adjust color/adjust color for skin tones
    So what you have to do is to do the color correction on a layer copy. Concentrate on the person to enhance and ignore the rest of the picture.
    When you are satisfied, add a mask to the layer copy and fill it with black.
    Set your foreground color to white
    In the layer palette, click on the mask icon on the right of the layer icon.
    Then use a brush to paint white on the skin of the person to reveal the correction.

  • How can I transfer an image of one person to another photo?

    I'd like to erase a person from a photo of two people & transfer a better image of that person from another photo in the Organiser. I'm using PE 9 on a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard.  I don't have a clue, please help.

    Open image A - image with poor appearance of the person
    Open image B - image with good appearance of the person
    Use one of the selection tools (e.g. selection brush tool, lasso tool) to make the selection on image B.
    Go to Edit>copy. this will place the selection on the clipboard
    Go to  image A
    Go to Edit>paste
    The "good appearing" person should be on a separate layer for the image A
    Access the move tool to position, and to resize using the corner handles
    If the lighting is different, or if there are other problems, you will have to correct using adjustment layers
    Not infrequently, it is necessary to use the clone tool to deal with background issues.
    If you should like to post both pictures via the camera icon in the reply box, we can probably refine the directions.
    Be sure to work in full Editor.

  • Photoshop: supprimer des personnes sur une photo avec cs6

    Bonjour, je suis novice sur cs6, je souhaiterai enlever des personnes sur une photo.
    je m'explique il y a 6 personnes sur cette photo et je voudrai en supprimer 2 qui se trouvent au milieu et raccorder les deux autres parties.
    comment puis-je faire ? Merci d'avance pour vôtre aide
    ps: je suis sur Windows 8

    Bonjour, c'est une opération assez complexe à réaliser sur cette image en particulier, si on veut que la retouche soit indétectable: la réflexion des personnages sur le carrelage rend les retouches plus ardues... De plus, la perspective du sol ne permet pas de rapprocher facilement les personnages. Aussi, il y a peu de fond à échantilloner pour recréer du contenu derrière les personnages centraux.
    Sinon, de nombreux didacticiels se penchent sur le sujet. Des outils comme l'outil de clonage, et les correcteurs localisés seront utiles. http://tv.adobe.com/fr/watch/apprendre-photoshop-cc/effacer-un-arriere-plan-ou-le-remplace r-par-un-autre-avec-photoshop/

    The simplest way, is to erase the drive and reinstall the OS X.

    Other than that, you will have to trash all your User files, delete all the photos from within iPhoto and then empty the trash.

  • I synced my sisters phone with my itunes and now all her contacts have disappeared and been replaced with mine and also photos... she has never done a back-up is there any way we can get all her contacts and pictures back?

    I synced my sisters phone with my itunes and now all her contacts have disappeared and been replaced with mine and also photos... she has never done a back-up is there any way we can get all her contacts and pictures back?

    Look under iTunes>Preferences>Devices...is there a backup listed for her phone? First thing done when you sync is an iPhone backup. If you have not synced since screwing her phone up, restoring from that backup(if it exists) should restore her content. Do not sync after you restore her phone, eject it. So, first disable auto-sync on that same device pane in iTunes before you proceed. If this doesn't work, is your sister bigger than you? If so, run 'cause her data is gone .
