3 Ways to Use Content-Aware Fill in Photoshop

Author: ShootDotEditOn: Mar 24Categories: Lightroom & Photoshop Tips No Comments

The Content-Aware Fill in Photoshop is an amazing tool that can help you repair, improve, or edit your wedding images and turn them into masterpieces. This tool may seem similar to the Spot Healing Tool or the Patch Tool in Photoshop, but in reality, it is very different. While the Spot Healing Tool helps you remove small distractions or spots from your images, the Content-Aware Fill Tool is useful for removing bigger objects from your images. The Patch Tool allows you to select and replace pixels from one part of the image to the other, while the Content-Aware Fill in Photoshop gives you more control and flexibility when replacing the pixels. It uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and is more sensitive and subtle than the Patch tool. It can also be used to move objects within an image or to another image. As you can clearly see, the Content-Aware Fill in Photoshop can impress you in many ways. To learn more about what it can do, read further!

Author: ShootDotEditOn: Oct 22Categories: How to Become a Photographer No Comments

Planning weddings is so much work. The bride is busy deciding on her gown, her hair, makeup, and handling all the details of the day. She might also be managing some  – or maybe most – of the vendors. The groom has his own things to do, like deciding on his suit, what family to invite, or he might even be in charge of some of the details of the wedding as well. The couple has many things running simultaneously.  They often forget a few details here and there. Even if they have help, sometimes they skip a few points during discussions with vendors. This might happen when they are booking you as their wedding photographer.
