My first edits are experiments on photoshop looking at how a colour overlay can change the image. To edit in this in style i selected The circle icon at the bottom of the screen and then click solid colour, when i clicked this i selected the colour i wanted the image to be to begin with i experimented with red. i then changed the effect to ‘overylay’ and then ‘soft light’ to see how it changed the image. Below is my final edited image which has a red overlay with the ‘soft light’ effect and then i have adjusted the lighting and contrast tools.

For these images i added a layer onto them. i selected a textured image and then dragged it onto the image i was using. To then blend the images together i selected overlay and then lowered the opacity so the images blended together.

For my final editing technique i bordered images with frames i found of of the internet. I went through the same process as adding a texture but the outcome showed a different message.  The digital use of framing focuses your eye of the subject of the portrait.
