Whether he’s teaching new skills to his 1.5 million YouTube subscribers or collaborating with brands like Adobe, Sony, or GrubHub, his passion and enthusiasm shine through. Aaron honed his Photoshop skills in 2008 when he set a goal to capture and edit a conceptual self-portrait every day for a year. After creating 365 original images, and after growing a massive cult following on Flickr, his fans followed him to YouTube where he began to share his talents through in-depth Photoshop tutorials.

Description
From high-end product photography to wild conceptual scenes, many of the pictures we see are actually two or more photos combined in post-production. If you’ve been searching for a great entry point into the fun and challenging world of image compositing, look no further! In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to analyze light, perspective, and camera settings to predict how well two photos will merge. It will then take you into Photoshop to break down the compositing process, covering tips and techniques for making selections, finding great composition, and matching light and color.
