I spent the last three weeks working on a dreaded house project (I kind of explain how I feel about house projects here), and when it was over, I returned to my computer like it was my long-lost best friend. I was so happy to see it, knowing that it would never, ever need me to laboriously scrape 100 years worth of paint and wallpaper off of a ceiling. No. It would let me play in Photoshop, and I would not need a dust mask or eye protection, and I could just be happy.
Really, really happy.
I Photoshopped this picture using a tutorial from the January/February 2010 issue of Layers Magazine (www.layersmagazine.com). They used photographs of a bride for their example, but for my version I went with my most reliable model: Toby. There’s one picture of Emma at the very end.
