Learn Photoshop – Key to Making Money With Adobe Photoshop

By David Peters

Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

Adobe Photoshop is one of the most popular imaging software packages around, but it’s expensive! Here are five ways you can earn money using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements — either as a business enterprise, for some extra money, or just to recoup your investment.

1. Offer a Photo Restoration Service. I’m sure just about everyone has a photo or two that hasn’t stood the test of time all that well, especially really old ones. Using the Healing Brush, Spot Healing Brush, and Patch tools, you can make old or damaged photos look like new again.

2. Become a Photograph Doctor. Whether it’s “red eye”, “pet eye”, poor exposure, or “finger over the lens syndrome” Photoshop can transform a ruined image into a pristine one. You can also use Photoshop to make a colour photograph look like a black and white one, or colour tint a black and white one to make it colour. Not everyone is a good photographer, so you need never be short of “patients”.

3) Design Greetings Cards – Designing greeting cards is a breeze with the photo enhancement and graphic design features in Photoshop. Enhance photos, combine photos with cut and paste for a fun and amusing card, transform photos into drawings or paintings for a masterpiece the choices never end. No matter the need from holidays to special events you can create the card for the occasion. Card blanks and envelopes are available from specialist suppliers.

4. Design T-shirts. Photoshop can make that idea for a great t-shirt a reality. You can purchase transfers from stationery shops or craft stores and plain cotton t-shirts can be found through low cost suppliers.

5. Web Design. This skill is more sought after than ever. All types of people and businesses seek this ability no matter the depth of the project. Some might need an entire web site designed, others simply site optimization, but Photoshop can have these demands met easily. Take commissions from a custom project or even create generic templates for others to purchase and download from your site to customize themselves.

As with any business, you may need to consider additional equipment. A color printer, scanner and digital camera would help support these job opportunities and can be found at reasonable prices on sale or through eBay and other websites. Invest in a DVD of royalty free images that permit their use for commercial ventures.

Getting the word out is better than any written advertisement. Ask friends, family, co-workers and other contacts if they or anyone else they know are in need of your services. You can even provide a portfolio review for retailers and offer them commissions on any work they send your direction.
