Al's Photo Tools Set 001
Tested in Photoshop CS2 and CS3
I've been focusing on the photography end of my business lately, and have been gathering together some of the Photoshop tools I use in my 'at home' work for your use as well.
Over the next few days I'll be posting literally hundreds of Photo alteration and correction actions. To start this series are 10 Actions for sharpening, color reduction and color enhancement, with the variations seen in the example to the right. You may use the action at face value and keep the result, or further manipulate the layers beyond the adjustments produced by the actions, The layers are retained in the final image for easy alteration or fixing.
The actions in this set are:
- Sharpen-LAB
- Color Enhancer
- Reduced-Shadows
- Reduced-Shadows-02
- Reduced-Color-01
- Reduced-Color-02
- Reduced-Color-03
- Reduced-Color-04
- Soft Light-CenterFocus-01
- Soft Light-CenterFocus-02
CS3-IR/BW Photo Actions Set- Dynamic Portrait BW/Infrared Effects
NEW 09/26/08:
Al's IR (Infrared) Portrait Actions
I'm making available to you 2 of my favorite portrait actions. These created a ghosted version of your photo, making it look somewhat aged and surreal. These make wonderful portraits, and I find I'm working in this medium frequently as they end results can be stunning. They also give you a good layered foundation image that you can then alter to suit your tastes.
Here's the breakdown:
- 2 Infrared Variant Actions
- Hundreds of results possible
- Easily reworked/retouched to suit your taste
- Use as tools for your digital photography business or hobby
- Photoshop CS2 and CS3 Friendly
Enjoy!
CS3-IR/BW Photo Actions Set- 10 Dynamic Portrait BW/Infrared Effects
NEW 08/23/08:10 Dynamic Portrait BW/Infrared Effects
Greetings Everyone-
Keeping with the portrait photo theme of the past few days, I've just activated 10 new Black and White/Infrared Actions to make those portraits snap. Many of the settings are adjustable by you (in a few of the actions, anyway) so you can 'fine tune' those images to get the amount of contrast, softness/starkness or highlights/shadows you are looking for. In truth these 10 actions can deliver hundreds of varied results.
Here's the breakdown:
- 10 Black/White or Infrared Variations
- Hundreds of varied results possible
- Use for your kits or as tools for your digital photography business or hobby
- Use on PORTRAIT or LANDSCAPE Photos
- Photoshop CS2 and CS3 Friendly
The rotating example to the left represents each action in the set.

NEW 08/20/08: 70 Artistic Portrait Actions and Canvas Creating Action
Greetings Everyone-
Are you ready to exercize a little digital artistry? The actions in today's update will allow you to do just that. There are 70 actions in 7 Action Sets that will turn any photo into a form of digital art, from artsy photo manipulations to full-on paintings and sketches.
As a bonus, I've included in each set an action that will place your new art on a canvas, complete with texture, dimension and shading. These work wonderfully with the Photo Framing actions uploaded a few months ago as well.
Here's the breakdown:
- 70 Artistic Photo Actions (Painting, Sketching, Wild, Other)
- 1 Canvas Action (included in each set)
- Each Action produces 2 effects: one artistic rendering without the canvas, and a second when the canvas action is used
- 140 effects possible
- Use on PORTRAIT or LANDSCAPE Photos
- Photoshop CS2 and CS3 Friendly
