1. Starting With The Right Photo
To really have a great effect, you want to start with a nice photo. The
sharpness and detail are key, you probably dont want a blurry image. If you
have beautiful, crisp light, thats great too. I am using an image I shot in one
of the first lighting classes I ever taught. Grab an image and lets get started!

Create a new layer and go Edit>Fill and choose to fill this new layer with
50% Gray. Go Filter>Add Noise and add 35% noise. Next, go Filter>Emboss
and set the angle to 50 degrees, a height of 3px, and an amount of 90%.

opacity to 10% and start painting with white as your foreground color.
Gently paint in where you want texture. TIP: Be slow and careful here for the
best results! Check out the screenshot of my actual mask below.

I am dropping a Curves Adjustment layer into place and darkening the area
all around her face. Its just something that Im feeling I should do with this
image. I painted black over her face in the mask to darken the entire in the
image but not affect her face.

6. Duplicate 2x
Go ahead and hit Cmd/Ctrl + J two times to duplicate our Dodge/Burn layer
twice. Our effect will be beautifully intensified now. Feel free to reduce some
opacity if your image looks a little too intense.

9. Clean Up
Apply a layer mask to this layer and paint away any areas that might be
spreading skin color over the hair/ear areas.

Saturation to +35 and also drop about +5 into the brightness slider. Once
you see the green color as I do, mask the color to only the iris areas of the
eye.

34. Colorize
Create a new Fill Layer by going Layer>New Fill Layer>Solid Color and set
the blend mode to Soft Light and set the color to #3f6991. Mask away some
of the color that falls into her face and were finished!
