Step 1:

  • Choose one of your own photos or 
  • Select a scene from one of your favorite movie, musical artist or sporting even.  
  • Look for high resolution images.  They must be over 1000 px
  • If they are to small it will not work!

 

Step 2:

Select the Shape Box and make sure it’s a Square

Step 3:

At the top of Photoshop Select:

  • Shape
  • Fill: White with red line through it
  • Stroke: White 
  • Number: 15px

Step 4:                                                                                                                                        1. First Frame: Draw a Rectangle around a section of your photo. Do not make it to big or to small.

Second Frame: Draw a Rectangle around another section of your photo. It looks best if you overlap it a bit. Continue creating frames around your photo.

  • You must have between 5-9 Frames

  • They can be any size or shape 

 

Step 5:

  • To add interest to your frames you may want to tilt some of them. This is not a required step 
  • Click Control-T and Tilt your frame.

 

Step 6:

We are going to add shadow around each frame

  • Click on your Second Layer (where you made your first rectangle)
  • Click on the fx at the BOTTOM of the Layers pallet
  • Click on Drop Shadow

 

Step 7:  

Move the Distance Slider to 20.  Leave everything else alone

 

Step 8:

Click on the next layer. Repeat the steps from Step 7

Step 9:
Continue creating a drop shadow on every layer that has a frame
