Tint your pictures

Add mood and emotion to your pictures with the creative use of colours and filters

You can change the mood of a shot by adjusting its colours and tones in a variety of creative ways. For example, by replacing the original colours of a photo with a wash of sepia, you can mimic vintage printing techniques and give a modern photo a vintage vibe. This is a great way of enhancing wedding snaps. A blue tint and clipped black shadows will add a mysterious and menacing mood to a shot. Photoshop Elements is packed full of tools and commands that enable you to quickly and easily change the mood of a photo by creatively tweaking its colours and tones.
