The use of infrared photography has spread among photographers who are finding different applications for it. Once reserved for landscape photography, infrared photographs can now be found in various styles including wedding and forensic photography. Infrared photographs can be taken with film cameras or on DSLRs. However, the latter of the two need to be processed during post-production to adjust the color balances and make the subject "pop" out of the photograph. Photoshop offers a relatively easy approach to the digital infrared photograph process.
Instructions
- 1
Apply the auto level option to the photograph. Select the "Image" menu, then click "Adjustments" -- then "Auto." Click "OK" to save and exit out of the dialog box.
2
Adjust the tonal curves and contrast of your photograph by selecting the "Image" menu, then clicking "Levels." This will bring up a dialog box. Drag the black arrow to the right to be in line with the start of the curve. Drag the white arrow to the left to where the curve starts on that side. Click "OK" to save the settings and exit the adjustment box.
3Swap the red channel of your photograph for blue. Select "Image," then "Adjustments" -- then click "Channel Mixer." When the channel mixer dialog box appears, change the "Output Channel" to "Red." Now, drag the "Red" slider to the center until it is on "0%" and drag the "Blue" slider to the right until it reads "100%." Do not close the dialog box yet.
4Change the "Red" "Output Channel" to "Blue" in the "Channel Mixer" dialog box. Now, drag the "Red" slider to the right until it is on "100%" and drag the "Blue" slider to the center until it reads "0%." Click "OK" to save the settings and exit the dialog box.
5Adjust the tonal range to align with the photo's setting. Select the "Image" menu, then click "Adjustments" -- then click "Shadow/Highlight." The "Shadow/Highlight" dialog box will appear. It is recommended to set the "Radius" in between 250 and 350 px. However, adjust the range to suit your taste. Click "OK" to save and exit out of the dialog box. This completes the processing of your digital infrared photo.
