Do you want to give your pictures a quick boost without spending hours editing? In this tutorial you’ll learn 5 ways to enhance a photo in one click.
1. Add a Preset
Presets are filters which change settings on your photo. Adding a preset can completely transform the look of your photo, and it’s really easy to do.
- Go the the Presets tab in the right-hand panel.
- Scroll through the list of filters and click one to test it on your photo.
2. Add a Frame
A digital frame provides the perfect finishing touch to a photo. Photo Editor offers frames for every style of picture, as well as special themed frames for different events/seasons.
- Go the the Frames tab in the right-hand panel
- Scroll through the list of styles and click one to test it on your photo.
Tip: After adding your frame, with a couple of extra clicks you can change the color and size to fit your photo.
3. Add a Texture
Textures are overlays that add another layer to your picture. Like presets, and LUTs they instantly change the appearance of a photo. Textures can give an artistic and even surreal effect to a picture.
- Go the Textures tab in the right-hand panel
- Scroll through the list of textures and click one to test it on your photo.
Tip: for one additional click, you can adjust the intensity of the effect using the Opacity slider at the bottom of the Textures tab.
4. Add a LUT Style
LUT styles are similar to presets in that they instantly change the look of your photo. A LUT remaps colors in the photo for a creative effect.
- Go the Styles (LUTs) tab in the right-hand panel
- Scroll through the list of styles and click one to test it on your photo.
Tip: for one additional click, you can adjust the intensity of the effect using the Amount slider at the bottom of the LUTs tab
5. Auto-correct
The auto-correction tool uses smart technology to improve your photo settings. Use this tool to instantly enhance colors and light in your photos.
- Click the Autocorrection button in the top toolbar.
Tip: With a couple of extra clicks, you can also adjust the amount of correction.
- Click the small arrow next to the auto-correction button to open the amount slider. Move the slider to the right to increase correction.
Using a Before/After View
Whichever edits you use to enhance your photo, compare your new picture to the original by using a before/after view.
In the top toolbar click Before/After views then select a view from the list. You can also edit directly in a before/after view to see your changes as you work.
