Create a Vintage and Romantic Scene of Old Memories in Photoshop

In this tutorial I'll show you how to create a vintage and romantic scene of old memories, using a variety of photo manipulation techniques. You'll learn how to combine different stock images into a cohesive scene, work with different tools, create brushes and use lighting/blending techniques.

We will start to create this photo manipulation with the work on the main stage - frames. Turn them into old photos, using a variety of filters and techniques. Then proceed to the main picture. I will tell you in detail how to make my "live photo" effect. The last step will be to work on the general atmosphere and entourage. This tutorial is designed for any level of knowledge of Photoshop. I used Photoshop 2014 for creation of this artwork. You can use any version of Photoshop.

Step 1

First open Photoshop and let's start! At this time we do not create a new document, and immediately open image of wood texture (wood_texture_4_by_rifificz-d38h68h, of course, if you did not rename the image :)). Go to File > Open and select image "wood_texture_4_by_rifificz-d38h68h". This will be our background. We will not change its size. Also image resolution suits me.

To hide part of the frame under the previous, grab and drag it under the layer with first frame. Now let us make our picture more interesting. Duplicate twice this frame.
