Adding a little Paris to your studio portraits is simpler than you might think! Learn how to add a reflection to sunglasses in today's episode.
Start by scaling the scenery down to the right size. Lower the opacity to see how it will look inside of the lenses. Be aware that only one of the lenses needs to look good, because it will be copied!
Next, select the area right around the lens with the Marquee tool. Go to Select - Inverse, then press the delete key. Now you should have a little square of reflection over one eye. Copy that layer and move it over to be on top of the second eye. Now make the reflection layer invisible and select the Magic Wand tool. We use this to select out the lenses (be sure that “sample all layers” is checked). Use the refine edge tool to soften or bring the edge in a bit. Group those layers with themselves and hit the layer mask button.
To style the reflection so that it doesn’t look fake, create a levels adjustment layer. Darken the darks and mess with the output levels so that it looks more like a reflection. You can add a Hue/Saturation level as well, to match the color from the original lens. In this case, we make it a little bluer and lessen the saturation.
Being able to see through the glasses a little bit is extremely helpful in terms of realism. We use a black to transparent gradient to select areas to be darker, and others to be more see-through.
Now the part you’ve all been waiting for…time to blow some minds! Select the layer that the reflection is on with the Marquee tool. Go to Filter - Distort - Spherize. From here it’s very simple to adjust the slider to a certain amount of curve. This bulges the image out and makes it appear less flat!

Thank you! I have just purchased PS CC. Very familiar with LR5, but not PS. I really appreciate your Tutorials.
Thanks for the video sir
man you made me love learning PS thx a lot
I always have trouble using the magic wand tool. A lot of my subjects sort of blend in with the background. Any advice?
Would some sort of defocus to the reflection images have been appropriate to add as well?
thank you, didn't know about Spherize function
Thanks a lot for your amazing videos.
Quick questions here. Every time I'm pasting something I copied form one layer into another layer, I'm losing my selection of that particular part I'm pasting.
I must have changed something...
You know how I can keep the selection, even after I pasted it? So that I can use that selection to do a blur or whatever..
damn you know how to teach :D, it is not every one can teach like that, i love your videos, so cool, every episode i learn new stuff!! i wish you were my personal tutor xD aha. keep with the good work and to the entire team of phlearn to. xD
wonderful job Bro & Thank u
Hi Aaron, Thank you for another excellent deconstruction. I will add that these days it isn't altogether common to find a tutorial channel where the instructor isn't either smug, preachy, or just plain self-interested, at some point or another. You (or more precisely your PHLEARN persona) demonstrate a level of grace that can only continue to serve you well. Your style of delivery, recognition of the fact that there is more than one way to accomplish any given task and the tacit acknowledgement that your tutorials are as much a journey of discovery for you as they are for us, make your channel infinitely watchable and thoroughly enjoyable. Congratulations.
My tutorial request may in all probability require a combination of photography as well as post-processing in Photoshop and is consequently ideally suited to being "PHLEARNed".
My request: Would it be possible to create (or recreate) the ethereal, atmospheric look in these now famous photos.
www.dpreview.com/articles/1115848347/russian-mother-captures-atmospheric-photos--family-portraits-of-sons-on-farm
The images, first seen (by me at least) on dpreview.com over a year ago, ostensibly show the work of Elena Shumilova, a Russian mother on a rural farm. They were touted as the amazing work of a highly talented, self-taught amateur and appear to have been captured in an amazing foggy wonderland forever trapped in the golden hour.
More images from Elena can be found here www.flickr.com/photos/75571860@N06
I will add that while there has been some discussion regarding the provenance of the images and the purported amateur status of Ms.Shumilova, the sublime quality of the work and their undeniable beauty remains unassailable.
Therefore, if the effect(s) captured and/or created can be achieved (or enhanced) through some combination of prime lenses, gelled flash photography, blur filters and post-processing generated fog, I believe that I would not be the only PHLEARN subscriber interested in hearing your take on it.
Warmest regards,
Edward M.
Wow sooooo cool :)
Hi man, that's a great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!How can I save the "reflection" of those lenses as a pattern (layer)?Thanks
Very nice
Great tut especially looking at the technique. I believe though you missed two points. First I believe you should flip, in this case the Paris picture first to get a realistic reflection. Second thought is: Both glasses are in the same pane (hope this is the correct word). So I believe it's impossible to have the same reflection in both glasses. This would only be possible when the left glass is bent towards the camera. Taking the whole flipped Paris image and mask the glasses out is more realistic.
Dude u r God of Photoshop!
Just asking, do you have a video to show how to make this effect but on a person's face? as is the dips and curves and bends that a face has but have sort of a facepaint effect that goes on a face seamlessly. Thanks.
gracias tio..like
would you do the same process if you want the reflection on a eye?
Great!!! can you tell me also how can i make the glasses black or darker? if they are brown?
Awesome Model Stock image.....i like to know were to get that one fotolia/ shuttlecock ID plse
You did not bork up the pronunciation of 'notre-dame'. Thumbs up! :D
Are there any channels like Phlearn but instead of Photoshop, they use Premeire Pro or a video editing software? I just love the style and format of Phlearn :)
Hi guys I know this is an old tutorial but would it possible to update it as Photoshop CC has had a move round of tools and now cant follow it thanks Tony
OMG. its veryy cool ;)
Awesome! But... shouldn't you have mirrored the photo of the Notre Dame?
Can you do a reflection tutorial for water?
excelente
Hey, can you do a video about 3D Photoshop?
Hello sir, I really like your work & I'm a big fan of your work, would be really nice of you if you make some more tutorials on color grading.
***** Thank you very much sir for these links, will watch all of them again & will definitely wait for some more phun tutorials.
How do you make those studio shots were the shadows are super dark and used like to cover erogenous zones. Like when model is completely naked
Hey Adam. Just a thought. Should the reflection from a window or sunglasses be blurry or not in focus? The stuff in the reflection is not on the same focal area as the person, right? If the person is 3 meters away and the imaginary scenery is 150 meters away... Not to go all physics but just wanted to know your thoughts. :)
Hey Aaron, what's the name of that drawing thing you use? I'm sorry I don't even know what that is haha. Thanks!
you are master of manipulation ;) Thanks a lot :)
always the best
First Of Al l , Thanks a lot, AARON, For the thing, In Search Of I am , I got by Your this tutorial.
yeah!!!
What you going to do if the glasses already have a reflection?
If you will put download links in the description for the photos you are using the viewer could use them to learn what you teach and i think it can be very helpful :)
He uses pictures from Fotolia.com and you have to purchase them. Starting at $0.19 if you have a full subscription to Adobe CC you get a free subscription.
oh, okay
Mine 'till dawn Maybe he should use photos that we can use for free. It would be much easier for us.

Really hard to find images that are really good quality that are free. They exist, but there aren't enough to fit all their needs. However, their pro tutorials use their own images, so when you buy them it comes with everything you need to follow along.
***** Thanks :)
I will give you Thanks a lot , for this tutorial , because First time I saw this reflection tutorial by you, but there is one problem created in my case when I apply this tutorial on my subject. As per your tutorial you had select the sunglasses by magic wand tool with , selected of that layer which is invisible. After selection you will go on refine edge option,
But one thing AARON in my case with my subject, when I select the invisible area of that where my object is situated, and then go on my refine edge option, at this time my refine edge option is not highlighted , but when I go throw the background layer, it will highlighted, please guide me or reply me how . I will check all the option , which you had tell in your this tutorial.
nice vid m8 you are my rekking bal
What editing software do you use?
dope
i can't find refine edge on photoshop 2019
I would love to see some PS Touch tutorials for on the road quick edits
Hahahahahaha... never!
Great video ;)
(What is the name of the intro music?)
I don't know if anyone has remarked on this yet but that shot of Paris shows a barge that is similar to the one that was used for the character of Duncan Macleod in the television show "Highlander: The Series". It's even in the same location.
Can you do a tutorial for making a reflection in water?
I need to learn how to do this with regular glasses.
Aaron you look like an extra from Sons of Anarchy. However, in your case it would be Sons of Phlearn. Don't steal that, I'm filing the trademark as I type this. You're getting better with the rapid speech rate. Keep up the good work.
Aaron I would like to know what is the name and brand of the pen that you use to edit all the images in Photoshop
He uses a WACOM Intuos Pro Small. www.wacom.com/es-es/products/pen-tablets/intuos-pro-small
Hey Phlearn so I'm doing a project where I'm taking old movies like The Wizard of OZ and Indian Jones and I'm compositing images into them but I'm having trouble making the image I'm incorporating look like the movie does. It doesn't have that movie grain to it that i truly desire. Please help it would be truly approached
My gradient tool didn’t allow me to do foreground to transparent, every other option works perfect but it litterally doesn’t work no matter what I do
Forgive me if you've done this, cuz there are quite a few videos lol but I'd love to learn how to change the colour of a car's paint. Every time I use the colour replace feature it never looks the greatest. So some pointers would be awesome :)
hey dude, yeah they have done it just search how to change the colour of anything i believe
Kiran Rajappan
thanks man :)
Conor Hildebrandt I would us a blend mode over a layer. I think hue is the correct one.
Did you find the video?
AWESOME -- THANKS I did a reflection in a astronaut face mask
Damnnnnn it man when i use the magic wand tool, it selects almost the intire face! And when i press alt, to get rit of the area that i don't want, i just deletes the whole selection.... I hate my photoshop.. please help
Does anyone know what part of this process would be changed if I wanted the image to look like a reflection in a camera lens?
Would this technique work for reflections in puddles?
It should work. Just make sure if the water has ripples in it that you distort it with the curvature of the water.
Cameron Maiden Great Thanks
That part where you're doing stuff with the gradient tool and then you're making the left side of the left part of the sunglass transparent, that doesn't work for me
my photohop there isnt refine edges
I think I missed something. When you add the gradient you appear to be able to add more than one gradient to the layer mask. When I do this the new gradient replaces the old one. What am I doing wrong?
Ignore the above. I had 'black to white' gradient selected, not 'foreground to transparent'.
