Becky Earl – be ART

Please bare with me my friends. I haven’t been sleeping well.  Why? Well, if you must know…I AM HUGE! HA. This baby boy is making it very difficult for me to sleep soundly at night. I can’t get comfortable. I am constantly having the urge to go pee… Sorry TMI? One side goes numb from sleeping on it too long, so I switch to the other…I am tired. My brain is on slow mo. So forgive me for not getting the Helpful Hints up yesterday. I was getting some much needed make up rest. So to make up for it, here are some more beautiful models AND the helpful hints. Forgive me? Saweeeet!

Unfortunately, I didn’t get tons of time with these models. So sad. Because they are sooo beautiful and amazing. We have Stephanie, then Trina, and then Mallory.

Told ya…totally gorgeous!!

Okay so for our Helpful Hints, I am gonna show ya how to put a SIMPLE watermark on your images and how to make an action for it to save ya some time.

Step 1) Open a picture…any picture…mine will be a snap of my little Sadie.

Step 2) Go to your Actions palette and then to the bottom file called Create New Set. (circled) Name your action whatever you would like. Maybe something like…WATERMARK. lol

Step 3) Then you will click the button next to that, name watermark or whatever you want and then press record. NOW- whatever you do from here on out it will record….

Step 4) Pick your text tool (circled)

Step 5) Pick Font, font size and color(s) and type out what you wanna say. Maybe, DO NOT COPY or © YOUR NAME PHOTOGRAPHY..whateva…You can change the opacity of the writing. (circled)

Step 6) Move the text where you want it on your image. It will be there each time. Don’t flatten image because you may need to move it to a different place for vertical and horizontal images.

Step 7) Press Stop (circled)

Your action should be recorded. Go ahead and close the image and try and run the action.

I had my logo/watermark made by a professional so I didn’t do the type. I just placed the watermark on my image, free transformed to the size I wanted and then put it where I wanted it to be. I created my action from there.

I hope this helps and is not too confusing. I know my way around photoshop when I edit, but anything else….not too sure. I am also sure there are cooler things you can do for a watermark, but I don’t know. Try Google.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for looking!
