Ever wanted to make one of your favorite pictures into an old time photo? This tutorial will show you how to merge a few images, to create an aged tin photo.
Sepia tone, a slightly browned looking photo, is a great way to “age” any picture. I am actually working with a couple examples, so I kind of know where I am headed with the coloration on the picture, and eventually the end style.
After opening the picture of the girl, we will Desaturate it, or remove all of the color from it – Image>Adjustments>Desaturate (CTRL+Shift+U). Once black and white, we want it to have that brown sepia-tone-photo look to it, so we’ll Colorize it – Image>Adjustments>Hue/Saturation (CTRL+U). In my example, I have the other two examples open in the background so I can get a color that’s somewhat close to them.
