Hello!
So, I'm an amateur photographer.
I know the basics and am pretty craft with Photoshop Elements 8.
However, my next project I want to be perfect.
And I don't know how to disassemble one picture and recreate a similar affect in another.
For example, I have been told for the past few years that I look like Zooey Deschanel (Not to be cocky here, I do slightly resemble her but I think she is much more gorgeous than I am).
Therefore my boyfriend, also obsessed with Zooey, would love to see a picture of me that mirrors this picture of Zooey:
I can see the basics effects, such as lighting from underneath and a focus on her face and blur around her.
However, I'm not entirely sure how to DO this myself. Like how should I take the picture? With what settings? And then what editing in photoshop would allow me to acheive that warm golden/copper tone that is in this photo?
If anyone could take apart this photo and give me instructions how to recreate it with a different subject (i.e. me!) I would greatly appreciate it!
I'm a huge fan of Zooey and I love her to death <3
Therefore I would love to emulate her in my own way!
