Photoshop Elements 9
 
Yesterday, I shoot portraits of friends. And I want to "edit" in elements 9. Please help me "edit" the pics in elements 9, this is the version that's in my computer; or pls point me a simple, easy to follow basic editing techniques for portraiture. Any help is very much appreciated. Again, thank you so much.

I am a weekend photographer, w/ a very tight budget.

Your question certainly has an answer, mangproc........ but it would require a few books to get every possible kind of edit.

Simple tutorials are online........ check out websites like [URL="http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/index.php"]Elements Village[/URL] and otherwise Google for 'portrait photo editing'. It's also time to invest in a good book - and I'd recommend 'Photoshop Elements 9 for Digital Photgraphers' by Scott Kelby and Matt Kloskowski. e.g. on [URL="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Photoshop-Elements-Digital-Photographers-Voices/dp/0321741331/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1337791779&sr=1-2"]Amazon[/URL].

[B]wave01[/B] is right - show us what you have and tell us what you want to do........ but, in the end, you're going to have to learn the tools of Elements (from a book or online tutorials) before you can use them.

To put it another way, let's say you'd asked, 'How do I make bookshelves?'.... if you didn't know what tools you had, or how they worked - screwdriver, plane, saw etc - any instructions we gave would be meaningless. So if we start mentioning the various tools of Elements you probably wouldn't know how they worked either.

Elements has a guided mode you could use to begin with. You could also read some magazines, buy a book or check websites like this one for tutorials. 'Help me edit the pics' is quite a broad request. :)
