Check & Match Colors Precisely in Photoshop

Unlock the Amazing Power of Check Layers to Precisely Match Color while Making Composites in Photoshop! Whether you are into photo manipulation or simply changing backgrounds, Check Layers allow you to accurately blend the images by matching the color, saturation, and lighting, by looking at the different parameters of the image separately.

In this tutorial, we will learn how to use Curves, Hue/Saturation, Gradient Maps, and several other Adjustment Layers to match the elements of a composite. We will also learn how to create realistic shadows to go with the light.

Hope this tutorial helps. Thank you for watching :)

The only youtuber who wants its audience to learn and work perfectly, and gives logic and reasons for every step. Just love your videos

I am a self-taught Graphic Designer and served in print media for more than three and a half decades in the capacity from Graphic Designer to Art Director. Although I am approx double of your age, yet honestly, I would admit you are one of the contributors to teach me Photoshop. Thanks a lot.

[bobani]

This guys is pure magic! Like everyone says, there is no better teacher out there! If we could only clonestamp you, and a few adjustment layers and have you teach us about EVERYTHING that would make the world a better place!

I dont have a computer and I am practicing photoshop everyday for 5hrs. I work at night, so in the morning, right after my shift, I head straight to internet cafe. I always watch your video everyday and it really helps me a lot. It really takes time to master everything specially with the color blending. Thanks for being a teacher and a guide to everyone.

Thank you for your persistence, you'll get the world, my friend, and us'll stay there with you. All the community loves u

[Sawta]

I absolutely love the presentation of this. Not only do you explain "why" before and during, you also give an excellent wrap up at the end of what it was we just did. You are providing an incredible service for thousands of people. I really appreciate what you've done here. Keep up the great work!

[staticklingon]

I can't tell you for how many years I've wanted a tutorial for creating compositions and I've never found one. I now know why, this is pretty complex stuff. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'm surely going to be coming back to this time and time again.

[lucashernandez]

I love how you perfectly explain everything you do. You deserve everything. Thanks.

[ArtingwithRandall]

I love that you carefully show us through start to finish. I've been doing PS forever, yet I learn something new every video. You are the first YouTuber I suggest to students for tutorials.

[valmarsiglia]

I've been a working graphic designer for over 20 years, and I've just discovered this channel - really great resource, thanks!

[jeanluismachado]

I'm a big fan of yours, I don't really understand what you say because I'm Brazilian, but when I need some reference or help, your channel is the first one I come to see ... Congratulations on your work! (By Google Translation)

[SagersFamily]

I have watched so many of your vids, some things you definitely have burned in my head; but one thing I wanted to tell you that I learned - sometime you had said something like "you'll never know life without curves" and you are so right - Curves are EVERYTHING. And all these neat little ways of checking your work. I think this one taught me the most. Thanks dude!

[harsh]

You are the only man in YouTube who gave correct and accurate way of color matching amazing 👌👌 you gave us professional knowledge about photo editing thanks a lot umesh sir

[giaquarian]

Sometimes I watch you just for your energy and smile! Thank you for years of smiles. Learn so much

[lfert]

I watched many tuts about matching colours, but this is the ultimate father for all of them. Superb, step by step, clear and precise. Luv it!

[karencoffelt]

I never knew so much work went into something like this. If you are not an artist you'll never become really good at this. I'm an artist and I have doubts about my abilities to do this well. I'm not sure about my abilities to be able to pick out all those tiny details. Thank you, Unmesh, for this amazing tutorial.

[JeffJolly]

Unmesh, you are a genius :)
I first used Photoshop about 22 years ago then got out of the kind of work where I needed to use it much.
I watch a lot of your channel and I always learn something.
I also love your presenting style... If you make a mistake while doing something you don't try to cover it up, just smile and as you say we are only human. Very refreshing!
I wish you well and many many thanks for the videos you create. 👍

[mrm]

You know you've landed on a true professionals channel when most other sites suggest using the poor quality quick fix "match color". Your photoshop tutorials are possibly the best ones I'be come across. Awesome

Hey, i use to work with Photoshop for about 3 decades and still learning...what an amazing Softwar.
