Turning water into wine

Turning water into wine

No, it's not quite a Christmas miracle, but there is a quick and easy way to turn water into wine, at least in photos in Photoshop! If only it was that easy in real life, right?

We did a fun cheeky, holiday/party studio session with model Summer and I grabbed a champagne glass, but oh dear, no bubbles. So what to do? pour in some water and add the bubbles and color in Photoshop. Here's what I did.

Creating the bubbles...

  1. Use the pen tool or the Polygonal Lasso Tool and select the water in the glass on a new layer

  2. Use a bubble brush (You can find loads on Brusheezy.com) and paint in the bubbles in white. Vary the brush size and have a few towards the bottom and more smaller at the top

  3. Now fill in the selection with your round brush with an appropriate color, I used #dfb748 then changed the blend mode to Color and dropped the opacity to 30%

  4. Finish editing your image as you wish

Check out the video on how to achieve it step-by-step.

And here is the before and after with the final edited image...
