In this video I share a powerful and pratical technique for recolouring any item in your images accurately to a target colour. Using Gradient Maps in Adobe Photoshop I recolour the make up, lipstick, nails, dress and background from a model shoot to a variety of colour options.
Share this video on if you found it helpful.

If I may offer my advice (I’ve been a professional retoucher in NYC since 1999)- make a selection of whatever you need to select, and then make that a GROUP. Inside that group, add your gradient maps one by one- as opposed to having a different mask for each adjustment layer. This way, if you need to change the mask, you only have to do it once per selection instead of on each individual layer.
You can also nestle multiple groups within the main group- say, lips. Make one main group with the lips masked out, then inside that group make a layer or group for each color you need to match to.
It will save you lots of headache later, trust me!
Great video though. Well done.
I'm a Graphic Designer working with Watches photography for about 4 years and your explanation is absolutely right.
Thank you
Thanks my friend, but this obviously isn’t how i normally work. This was a basic tutorial and I wanted people to see the layers I’d created to understand where I was taking the selections from, but you’re right. That’s better file organisation.
Cool. Thanks for making and sharing!
YES!
Just one thing that might help: when a colour is picked form a swatch, read the brightness value from the palette and match it with the "location percentage" in the gradient mask.
In this way you will get the exact colour.
Paolo Molinaro cool tip!
👊🏽
Also when picking the color from a swatch, it's better to change the "Sample size" from 'Point Sample' to some thing bigger like '11 by 11'
Thank you, sir.
Thank you!
Honestly the best tutorial on gradient map I've ever seen. Bravo!
tsts... you haven't met Unmesh yet...! XD
...don't get me wrong: I also appreciate and like Sean Tucker's videos a lot! Very nice guy
@@vi2e Not a fan of unmesh - he teaches really bad photoshop techniques...that are mostly quick but are absolutely terrible and unprofessional. When he talked about high end retouching and was using frequency seperation...thats when I couldn't take him seriously at all.
I honestly learn so much from your videos. You are one of the fews that I still follow through the years due to the fact that you stay humble, practical, uplifting, informative and nothing to do with web celebrity style. Wish I was not in Sweden but in London to go to some of your photo walks. Would be nice chatting with you in person. Once again, great job! Commend your wife for her great shots as well.
This video is gold, or silver, or platinum, because now I know how to make it any colour I want it to be! Thanks, Sean :-)
I love your videos !!! It’s amazing how people regurgitate their resume “ yes I have retouched for 100 years from NYC” and and I have blah blah blah! I love your explanation in your video !!! :)
This video just changed my life.
Nice voice, on-point tutorials! Thank you very much!
I know, it's an older tutorial, but maybe I've got a little advice too:
When you're selecting a color with the eyedropper tool from a non-solid color like paint on skin it really can help to set the sample size in the upper-left corner to 5x5 or 10x10 to get the average color around the selected pixel - just to avoid selecting a pixel that's influenced by the noise of that image. :)
So much Thanks! So much helpful Sean! God bless you, your dear wife and all your dear ones!
Love that you took a step away from the usual type of video that you do. What I really can't wrap my head around is how you selected the dress from the first photo without getting the holes in it. You said to go look it up but with the way you explain everything I'd honestly love to see how you do it!
Same here ☝🏾
You go to the mask layer with a white brush and paint over the holes, where you want them to be. You can also correct yourself with switching between black and white brush (press "X" when in the mask layer) and paint the gradient back. You can also play with opacity. If you know that the dress is semi-transparent in some places, you can set the opacity of the brush as you wish.
When you use a tool like Quick Selection Brush, there's an option on the top panel that reads "Refine Selection". When you click on it, you can paint over your mask with a Refine Selection Brush, which automatically excludes background and holes from your selection. It's very useful when selecting hair, for example.
@@Loweren thanks so much as this is much-needed additional info! ;)
Thanks so much. I been watching this tutorials several times already and still learning something new . Everytime
Very nice approach to adjust colours and tonality. Thank you so much for sharing.
Sean, Another great video. I now have a much better understanding of the Gradient Map tool. Thx.
This is a better tips and tutorial than PS tutorial channels.
Totally!!! PS should put these guru's of editing on Payroll for sure!!!
Nice. Great tutorial. I like your teaching style. Thank you for sharing.
I’ve been a regular Photoshop user for nearly 20 years and I learned loads from this video. Thanks, Sean.
Sean from philosophy to practicality. Excellent tutorial
So I'm actually a Software Engineer and not a photographer or product designer, but I like watching art and your channel really blows my mind, this video and techniques are just amazing, keep at it man!
Fantastic tutorial. Thanks Sean.
Best tutorials I’ve come across
Really interesting, Sean- Olivia was incredibly "patient!"
I have waited for this sooo looooong! Thank you ✨!!!
Lovey. Didn't know this at all. So powerful. So simple. Thanks Sean.
This is incredibly useful. Thank you!
So excited to watch this!
Thanks Sean for an excellent tutorial video; much appreciated

This gradient map idea is really a WOW!
Priceless information! Thank you!

Watched this video for fun last night and woke up to a project that greatly benefited from this tip! Forever grateful for your channel.
Thanks for posting this. Can't wait to try on my own!
Thanks for all the simple tips and tricks Sean, things are always simple when it comes from you.
Thanks Sean this was really ground breaking for me. Much appreciated
Great video Sean!! 👍👍👍 Thanks...
Another great tutorial, thank you !!!
Thanks Sean, I really do enjoy your tutorials. I find your technique of teaching really sinks in with me.
Absolutely fantastic tutorial Sean. Thank you for making this.
Thank you Sean, I was wondering about just this subject and your tutorial along with the comments it inspired is exactly what I needed.
I remember your video on shooting that vintage chair. One of my favourites. Love the tutorials Sean, keep em coming!
Hey Sean, great video ! Love the technique. Thanks for sharing.
That's a much more efficient way to recolor something! Until now I changed the value and hue + saturation with 2 layers. But I had no idea you could use a gradient map to do it all in one but also keep it flexible. Very nice one. I guess everytime you think you know all tricks in Ps, you learn a new one! 😄 I'll definitely use this new technique.
Very well explained and incredibly useful tutorial. Can't wait to try it out.
This tutorial is so great. Thank you so much!
Yes!!! This is really helpful. Thank you Sean for this tutorial.
LOVE these practical videos. They are soooo informative and applicable in our everyday lives. Keep it up Sean!!!
Thank you for all your wonderful videos. :)

Fantastic tutorial Sean, clear & to the point. Perfect, many thanks.

This is awesome !!
Wow, this is so great I have so much to learn.
So so useful especially as someone who was struggling with the realism of colour changes
I have no clue why YT suggested this video to me but I'm really glad it did. Outstanding
Very clear explanation, thank you.
This is really cool! I used to use the Photoshop feature that appears when you open a RAW image because I thought that was pretty cool but I really like how much advanced control there is with the gradient map 🔋
thank you for this very useful technique and your use of multiple examples!
