Photoshop Blend Modes Explained


Photoshop Blend Modes control how an effect is applied to your image. Each Blend Mode has a different method for blending, and creates different effects when used. In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through and explain what each blend mode does and a few of my favorite ways to use them. My explanation is based on the practical ways a photographer might use Blend Modes while editing their images. For a more technical explanation of Photoshop Blend Modes, you can check out this post on Adobe’s website.

In the video, I mention several other tutorials that use blend modes that can help you take your learning even further. Find them in the “Related Posts” section below.
