Post Tips: How To Change The Background In A Portrait (Part 1 of 2)

Synopsis

In this two-part tutorial Sony Artisan Chris Orwig shows how to prepare images in Lightroom, then send them over to Photoshop to combine them and change the background. Using a portrait shot with his Sony α7R III and 24-70mm G Master lens, he begins in Lightroom, making some minor adjustments, and continues over in Photoshop to combine images and change the background.
