Changing backgrounds

[Alessia]

Hi Damien,

I am sure you answered this question many times already, but I can't find a thread. So if you already have a link, pls just paste it. Basically, due to the cold weather I had to take a picture indoor, but my client wants an outdoor back ground. I know you have a method that avoids using selection, tools, smart radius etc. Basically, she wants the toddler on the bridge or in a natural setting in general, which means I need to shrink her too.

Thank you so much.

Here are the pictures.

Ok, first of all let's fix the most serious problem.  https://www.damiensymonds.net/art_tscs000.html

@Alessia?

Hi! Sorry for my late reply!

i sent those pictures from my new MacBook, which I have not calibrated yet. However, the color space is always Srgb, I never change it. T

So, I went through the trouble shooting you sent me and...shocker! You were right. The color space was RGB. I still don't know why... Anyway, I always shoot in raw and then start editing in Bridge. I have Photoshop CS6 and i don't see ACR on the drop-down menu. So, how do I fix the problem in Bridge?

I will enroll in your courses after Christmas. That's going to be my Xmas present to myself!

 

Thank you Damien!

You don't "find" ACR.  Nobody knows where it is.

But when you double-click a raw file in Bridge, it automatically opens in ACR.

@Alessia?  Are you still there?  Have you fixed your colour space problem?

[Alessia]

I did, thank you. I’m in Italy now for the holidays, but as soon as I get back to the US I will enroll in your courses. Thanks!

Oh!  Wow, have fun!
