What is frequency separation?

Frequency separation in Photoshop is a modern process that gives you complete control over the delicate textures and color in your images. Retouching has come a long way in the digital age. Using the power of Photoshop, we can separate fine details from color information and then independently edit them.

Without the frequency separation technique in Photoshop, it is easy to reduce the quality of the subject’s skin tone. However, if you can master the frequency separation technique, you will be able to smooth skin tones smoothly and still retain other skin tones. In other words, mastering this retouching practice in Photoshop will give your photos an instant boost of beauty and professionalism.
Step-by-step guide to frequency separation:

Not only do we take you through the frequency separation process step by step, you can keep going as we go through several examples of full portrait retouching using 16-bit RAW images.

High Frequency vs Low Frequency

High frequencies are the smallest details in your images. Think about the texture of the skin, hair, or seams in the fabric. Low frequencies include all the color information in a photo, such as transitions from highlight to shadow. Frequency separation is the process of dividing these two elements into separate layers that can be adjusted without affecting each other.
Remove stains

We all have them; small wrinkles, pimples, stray hairs, the little spots that easily show up in today’s high-resolution cameras. Learn the proper methods to eliminate and reduce small distractions while keeping all the important details that make a person unique.
Smooth skin in Photoshop

Dark shadows, uneven highlights, and red skin will never be a problem again. Learn to analyze and edit low-frequency layers to soften color and light and dark areas, creating a perfect skin tone to bring out the natural beauty of your subject.

Small-scale retouching

Follow along as we dive into the details of an image, focusing on the high frequencies and retouching little spots and distractions. Small-scale elements in a photo can make a big difference to an overall image, at any scale, and are essential for creating larger prints.
Large-scale details

Seeing detail on a large scale means you can identify how and where light falls on a surface and how it affects the overall color and tone. We zoom out, demonstrating how you can smooth out shapes and color, creating seamless transitions between light, shadow, and color while preserving all of the original texture.
Raw and JPEG

Whether you’re working with RAW or JPEG, you can use the power of frequency separation to enhance your photos. We show you the proper workflow with both types of files using our custom frequency separation action.
