Today, we will be putting together a dramatic and cinematic angel photo effect using only a handful of images, so let’s get started!
I will be using Adobe Photoshop CC in this tutorial, but you can also use Photoshop CS6!
What You’ll Need
To complete this project, we are using the following resources:
Find more resources on Envato Elements!
1. How to Add Light Bokeh to a Background
Step 1
We will be working on a 3887 x 5522 px canvas today!
Download a cloudy sky, like this Rays and Clouds stock image, and enlarge it significantly.
Step 2
Go to Filter > Blur Gallery > Field Blur to add in our bokeh effect.
Field Blur Settings
- Field Blur: 26 px
- Light Bokeh: 18%
- Bokeh Color: 13%
- Light Range: 191 to 255
Feel free to play with these settings!
Step 3
Create a New Layer set to Soft Light.
Using a white large, soft, round Brush, increase some of the areas of light amongst the clouds.
Group all of the sky layers together, renaming the group “Background.”
2. How to Composite a Person in Photoshop
Step 1
Place the subject, our Handsome Asian model stock image, in the middle of the canvas.
Extract the subject using your preferred method. Mine is the Pen Tool. However, any technique will work. I do suggest using a method using Layer Masks as opposed to permanently deleting or easing anything!
Go ahead and remove the transparent part of the scarf found on the left side of the subject’s face for now.
Step 2
To extract the scarf, first Duplicate the subject.
Use a hard, round Brush Tool to mask back in the scarf on the duplicated subject’s layer mask.
Set the subject copy’s layer mode to Multiply.
Step 3
Go to Image > Adjustment > Hue/Saturation and change the settings to what you see below.
Hue/Saturation Settings
- Colorize: Checked
- Hue: 219
- Saturation: 14
Step 4
Next, go to Image > Adjustments > Brightness/Contrast and adjust the settings as follows.
Brightness/Contrast Settings
- Brightness: 93
- Contrast: 51
If needed using the Smudge or Brush Tool to soften the edges of the cloth, creating a more subtle blend.
You can also Delete or Mask Out any part of the copied subject that isn’t needed.
Step 5
Create and clip a New Layer into the subject, setting it to Overlay.
Use a soft round Brush set to black and white to increase the contrast of the subject’s face and metal bracelets.
Paint white on the highlights and black on the shadows/lowlights.
Set your brush to a low Flow Rate of 10% or less to slowly build up the light and shadows!
Step 6
Create a New Layer, setting it to Soft Light.
Using a soft round Brush, paint black on the chest, inner arms, and lower body of our subject.
Lower the layer’s Opacity to 20-25% if needed.
Step 7
Next, we want to use a combination of Soft Light, Overlay and Normal layers to add light to the subject, focusing on the arms and hair.
Build the light up slowly, over multiple layers, adjusting their Opacity as needed and remembering to keep the Brush’s Flow Rate low!
Use different brush sizes and levels of hardness as you go as well.
Ignore the transparent part of the scarf for now.
Group all of the current subject layers together, renaming the group “Model.”
Step 8
Above the “Model” group, create a New Layer set to Normal.
Paint a small amount of light over the top portion of the subject’s head.
Create a second New Layer, setting it to Overlay.
Add light to the transparent part of the mode’s scarf. Adjust the Opacity of both layers as needed.
Step 9
Finally, create a new layer below the “Model” group, setting it to Soft Light.
Add light directly behind the transparent portion of the scarf.
Feel free to add even more light!
3. How to Create a Cinematic Color Grade
Next, we are going to add a color grade overtop of our image. Remember these layers will be placed above all other layers, in a group marked “CC,” unless stated otherwise!
The layers are created from bottom to top.
Step 1
Create a Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer.
Settings
- Contrast: 23
Step 2
Create a Color Lookup adjustment layer.
Settings
- 3DLUT: Kodak 5205
- Opacity: 30%
Step 3
Create a second Color Lookup adjustment layer.
Settings
- 3DLUT: Kodak 5218 2383
- Opacity: 51%
Step 4
Create a Selective Color adjustment layer.
Settings
- Colors: Blacks
- Cyan: +7
- Magenta: -9
- Yellow: -11
Step 5
Create a second Selective Color adjustment layer.
Settings
- Colors: Blues
- Cyan: +59
- Magenta: -26
- Yellow: -40
Group all adjustment layers, naming the group “CC” for color correction.
4. How to Make Angel Wings in Photoshop
Step 1
Download a pair of wings, such as these Eagle Wings, and then separate and position the two wings using the Lasso Tool.
Step 2
Next, extract the wings using your preferred method.
For the left-hand wing, I used a mixture of the Magnetic Lasso Tool and the Pen Tool.
For the right-hand wing, I used Select > Color Range.
Also, feel free to further adjust your wings as you go! I always make small adjustments to past steps here and there as I move forward.
Step 3
Convert both wings into smart objects by Right-clicking > Convert to Smart Object on the wing layers.
Add a Filter > Blur > Radial Blur to each wing.
Radial Blur Settings
- Amount: 2
- Blur Method: Spin
- Quality: Best
Click on the Smart Filters Layer Mask and with a large, soft, round Brush set to black, mask out the bottom and inner parts of the Radial Blur filter, so that the effect is only visible on the outer edges of the wings.
Optional
Add an Inner Glow layer effect to each of the wings.
Inner Glow Settings
- Blend Mode: Soft Light
- Opacity: 56%
- Color: White
- Size: 152 px
Step 4
Duplicate the left wing, bringing it below the original.
Add a Color Overlay layer effect to the wing copy, filling it with white.
Move the wing copy 25-50 px to the right to create a back-lighting effect.
Add a Layer Mask to the wing copy, and mask out any portions of white that look too strong. We want most of the light to be coming from the right side.
Repeat with the right wing as well, and then Group the wings and all of their layers, naming the group “Wings.”
Step 5
Create and clip two New Layers into the “Wings” group, setting both to Soft Light.
Using a large, soft round Brush, paint white on the outer edges of the wings and black on the inner edges of the wings.
You could also do this on two different layers to give you more control over the opacity!
Step 6
Finally, create and clip a Curves adjustment layer into the “Wings” group, above the layers clipped previously.
Bring down the shadows, and bring up the highlights.
Also, bring up the Blues in the shadows by switching RGB to Blue.
