How To Style Better Photos For Your Blog…TWO-sday Random Post #8

Group photos by similar colors or backgrounds…this will give you balance.

2. Group photos with different focus lengths. In this sense, the photos won’t fight each other for attention.

3. When using elements (this could include text, brushes etc.) give it an extra punch. Use Style layers in Photoshop. For example, on the hearts…I used Inner Ridge under the Bevel Tab. BUT…on this one I didn’t apply the layer style. Do you see the difference? Look how the hearts…just lie flat and make no pop.

4. To keep it uniform…Use the same font family and technique on all your photos within one post.

I had a lot of fun showing you my Bracelet Bangle Collection while giving this tutorial. Oh, a girl will do about anything to show off her babbles won’t she♥ Did you find our TWO-sday photo? Yes…the big pink beaded bangle with the hidden silver one behind it☺

Take some time to do some basic post-processing work on your photos to give them that 1…2…3 punch! You won’t regret it.

Happy TWO-sday to You!

Beautiful baubles and great tips! I will have to look for the edge bevel in my photo editor because it does make it pop!
