Selective Sepia Photoshop Tutorial
Step 1: Open an image into Photoshop
Open the File menu and select Open. Browse for the photo you would like to add a selective sepia effect to and click OK.
Step 2: Create a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer
In the Layers pallet, click on the New Adjustment Layer icon and select Hue/Saturation.


A) Select by color
Selecting the sepia areas based on color will give the most natural effect. First, decide which color in the photo that you want to keep. Then, select from the edit drop down menu the each color in the list except for the colors you want to keep and reduce the saturation to -100. For example, to keep the reds in the photo use the following settings:- Reds: 0 Saturation
- Yellows: -100 Saturation
- Greens: -100 Saturation
- Cyans: -100 Saturation
- Blues: -100 Saturation
- Magenta : -100 Saturation


B) Select manually
Manually selecting the sepia toned areas will let you specify precisely the area that you would like toned. Set the master saturation to -100 and click OK. Your image should now appear grayscale.

Step 3: Add a Black & White adjustment layer
In the Layers pallet, click on the New Adjustment Layer icon and select Black & White. If you are using Photoshop CS2 or older, select Hue/Saturation instead.
