cathm Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 (edited) Hi Damien! I would like to match the colors and the looks of the 1st image to the 2nd image and the 3rd image to the 4th image. Both the off-white dress and the grey fabric were used. Could you please let me know how I can achieve this? Thank you. Edited September 14, 2023 by cathm forgot to mention about the dress and fabric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Okay, add a Levels layer on each photo, and move the Output sliders on each one. (Remember, the Output sliders are the ones under the gradient, NOT the ones under the histogram.) First photo: R 0/240 G 0/244 B 0/251 Second photo: R 0/249 G 0/246 B 0/248 Third photo: R 0/236 G 0/238 B 0/241 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathm Posted September 14, 2023 Author Share Posted September 14, 2023 Sorry, if I didn't explain this well.... I wanted to adjust the first and third images to match to the second and fourth images. Do I still need to adjust the second image? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Oh crap, sorry. Okay, try the first set of numbers I gave you. It's for the family of three all standing and looking at the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathm Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share Posted September 15, 2023 For the first image, the dress color matches better now. Thanks! I did the skin edit and tried to fix the over-exposed arm due to the adjustment, but I wasn't sure how to fix the dad's over-exposed white shirt. Any idea if it's possible to fix this? For the third photo (dad kissing the belly), I don't think the color of the grey fabric matches to the fourth photo... Could you please let me know how I can fix this image to match to the fourth image? Many thanks! Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 I'm confused. Why does this photo look different now? 1 hour ago, cathm said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathm Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share Posted September 15, 2023 (edited) I did this First photo: R 0/240 G 0/244 B 0/251 and then adjust the skin tone + mom's hair based on the image that I wanted to match = Photo #2.

cathm Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share Posted September 15, 2023 oh wait... I did it wrong.... let me try again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathm Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share Posted September 15, 2023 Here is the image that I only adjusted the Output sliders to R 0/240 G 0/244 B 0/251 It doesn't look closer to the image that i want to match with (attached second image).

Damien Symonds Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 *sigh* I completely got it the wrong way around, didn't I? I thought you wanted the matching to go the other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Sorry, I don't know how to do it. It blows out their skin every time I try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathm Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share Posted September 15, 2023 OIC. What about the other photo (close up of belly and husband)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Yep, I think I can do that one. First, an overall Levels layer (output sliders): R 0/249 G 0/249 B 0/252 Then a Photo Filter adjustment layer for just the fabric. Cooling Filter (LLB) at 12% Density. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
