Step by Step – Photo Composite by Adrian Sommeling

Photographer / digital artist Adrian Sommeling‘s portfolio is chock-full of the type of photos that make you think, “How did he do that?” Fortunately for all of us Adrian is willing to share the secret sauce. He has been creating videos of his work in Photoshop demonstrating each step and how he composites the shots together to create one final shot. Truly inspiring. These are not the type of videos that will take 20 minutes to watch as he painstakingly burns in the shadows or dials in sliders for just the right amount of contrast. Rather we get a simple 1-minute overview from start to finish that will make you no Photoshop ninja but will immediately open your mind to creating the type of photos you might have never thought possible. In addition to the video shared above showing the making of his popular photo “Wind” – I have also linked below to some of his other videos he has shared that show how he put together some of his other popular shots. Thanks Adrian for sharing your talent and pulling back the covers so we can all see how you do it. Let us know in the comments below what you think.
