- [Narrator] One of the most difficult things to do…when photographing a group of people,…is to get them to all smile in the same frame.…If you can't get everyone smiling,…just make sure that you have everyone smiling in one shot…or another, so that you can combine the images.…We'll start here in Bridge with the two images…of the family selected.…I'll choose Tools, and then Photoshop,…and then Load Files in the Photoshop Layers.…This tells Bridge to hand off both of those files…and put them in a single,…multi-layered Photoshop document.…
We can see if the layers panel that I have two layers,…Family01 and Family02.…If I hide the top layer by clicking on the eye icon,…we can see that the zoom has actually changed…between the two photographs.…In order to automatically align these two photos,…I'll hold down the Command key, select them both…in the layers panel, and then choose Edit,…Auto-Align Layers.…I'll click OK, and Photoshop will automatically…align them.…Now when I toggle the eye icon, we can see…that they're in much better alignment.…
