Blending, Masking, and Color Correcting for HDR Images

This video is quite fast paced, so I would recommend watching it multiple times or slowing the speed down. It's also might seem pretty advanced for some people who aren't as familiar with Photoshop. Anyway, enjoy the nonsense. :)

"That's all I wanted to cover in this video." Dude covered like 80% of photoshop. I will have to watch this 20 more times, but great vid!
Dude, this is the mother of all tutorials.

Wow! Like drinking from a firehose 😂 I love the content, I’ve learned more in 19 minutes than I have in 19 months. I just need to rewatch this several times over to fully digest what you’re doing. I thought I knew Photoshop, then you go lay this on me. Thanks man.
In your warp speed video, in under 20 minutes, you covered multiple topics I've been trying to learn over months! I am so grateful for the pause button and I will be scrutinizing this video for a week to mine all the gold it contains.
Hunter- I've been eyeballing your work for a while, really appreciate your craft buddy! My old HDR method was never as clean, switched over to flambient few years back due to the heavy work flow. When done right, HDR looks fantastic!! Amazing work, probably the best I've seen!! Keep it up man!
I’m sure a lot of people, including me, appreciate the fact that you cut out the unnecessary chatter. This was direct and to the point with not a lot of wasted time. Great job! It’s amazing what you can do without using flashes. What makes you decide to use a flash or not when you’re on site?

As far as I understood from all the videos with flambient technique, its easier to edit all this in Photoshop without gazziliions of keyboard shortcuts LOL
I just wanted to thank you for all the tips in this video! Learning them and incorporating them into my work flow has made my work so much easier, consistant and attractive. You rock
Man this tutorial really is absolute GOLD. I've come back to it several times but am finally at the point where I know enough to understand how to do it. I have no idea how your brain works to come up with this but it's amazing, and THANK YOU
GOAT of tutorials, watching this 1000x til its in my head for good!
This guy its a pro at Photoshop, I know some things about Photoshop, but damn! I was very overwhelmed watching your video. Wish I could use Photoshop like you do. 💯
Great image! My only concern is how time consuming your workflow for the windows is. Wouldn't it be easier to shoot one extra image with full power flash and exposure for the windows, then use layer-masks in Darken-mode to pull the windows. By over-exposing the interior that way, darken-mode will replace the need to make any selections at all.
Great video, keep them coming!!! I like way more the long versions than the timelapse 🤘
I use photoshop all the time. I thought I knew how to use it quite well. After watching this, I feel like a novice. Every tool you used was all new to me! I am going to have to go through it one step at a time! Thank you for sharing!
Dont forget guys, you just press shift, control F6, then hold shift and right click and then use your shortkey control + g and then change opacity, add a black mask, adjustment layer, and then highlight selection, then shift + control + g + f6 + right shift. EASY ENOUGH
Okay you asked for feedback so here goes it.. You are talented Also the fact that you make these videos where others would charge means you're a pretty good person, the one dislike on this video is a person who probably paid for this knowledge in college or charges on his/her KZread LOL. Constructive criticism - You're explaining has improved over other videos i.e. explaining what keys your pressing and so on.. One thing I like to do when watching your videos is slow the video speed down just a tad other than that you're doing -good- *GREAT!*
How could I remember all that??? I suppose that after I watch a few more times and also watch all of your other videos, something will sink in. I'll give it a try. In any case, I like the "raw" editing. Thanks, Hunter!
Yes!! Thanks for the great full video! I like the time lapses ok, but much much prefer the ones like these that have all the steps and you talking through them! Keep up the great vids! 👍🏻
Good stuff here. A must watch for anybody wanting to edit their own photos rather than outsourcing. I tend to outsource a lot due to the volume of shoots, but you covered some techniques here that will certainly improve my personal editing skills. Thanks!
Pretty much the best tutorial on this topic that I've EVER found! THANK YOU so much! :)
Thanks for sharing this. I LOVE your tutorial - please never stop!
Hey Hunter, thanks so much for amazing tutorials! Have a question - do you take 4 brackeed shots and then manually blend them. Could you please share your camera settings for taking those 4 shoots?
hey hunter i am new to your channel i have seen a coupe of videos till now and it was totally useful which gave me a solutions to a lot of problems that i was facing , thank you for your respectable and useful content you are sharing with us . continue creating
Great videos! Looking forward to see you update more often
Great video man, you covered so much!
The reflection of the exterior white wall on the table top is lighter than the wall itself after blending in the darker window exposure. This is a frequent problem when people try to blend exposures together to reduce contrast. They often do not fully address all the differences in lighting and contrast.
Fascinating to see your techniques. The window frame and wall looked a bit bright to me but my TV isn't calibrated (!) I'd be interested in seeing how you deal with a large public space and those challenges where it isn't practical to flash Thanks!
Nice work, interesting technique. I am using enfuse it seems to work pretty well and I have developed some settings that make it even better. Also in my work I am amazed at the amount of blue that filters in, we don't notice it in real life but after you see it a bit exaggerated in digital images you really begin to see it everywhere with "new eyes", also one begins to see color casts from lawns and shrubbery as well. I will only be practicing techniques at home now until they find a solution that lets me work super safely in RE again. Not sure when if ever that will happen, it is rather age and health dependent in addition to other solutions. Nice example. Would be good to get your raw files from the video and try some other techniques on them in addition to getting your final image for comparison to see which techniques may be fastest and or best etc. Best wishes!
Best video on this I have seen! Thank you!
My God such a great tutorial, pure gold, thank you very much!!
Fabulous tutorial! Made sure I hit the like button and subscribe button as well. 🙂👍 One question regarding doing a window pull this way. What happens when the windows have blinds? Do you do the same for blinds? It would seem like a lot of work do all those selections.
I love the process and the tools to get the result you achieved! Some of the techniques and even tools you mentioned, I haven't really used or never used so thanks for the lesson, great work! Now this part of the comment is for those doing RE photography, I think turn around time would not be cost effective at least not for me, unless it was a magazine shoot or luxury shoot with good money to justify the work. What does anyone else think? I shoot RE for MLS listings.
Good job, its very usefull to have videos like these, not many people have covered this, however i want to avoid HDR as much as possible, flambient is much faster, simpler with better results, altough your HDR editing made a great image too it took a lot of editing, im keeping this video at hand anyway, so thanks.
Thank you Hunter, I learned something to day. I have totally forget the history... I´m gonna check it out :-)
Thank you 🌹This helps me a lot🥰

Very helpful video. May i know what are your gears for shooting interiors . Thanks

Thank you. Excellent explanation
This was so helpful! One big question: why do your selections with the pen tool, rather than the polygon tool? I’ve never really used the pen, so I don’t know what benefits it has over the polygon.

The pen tool is more precise in that you are selecting vectors as opposed to pixels! In short, PRECISION!
You are a Photoshop Master!
Wow! Thank you
Ok my brain just exploded! So thank you for that!
Btw, do you use the flash for the window pulls for the first picture? Thanks
might also try apply image setting for bringing in highlights. not as many steps. great video
it's really amazing video.I learn a lot...thank you!!!! and I waiting your next video,,,,,,

Hi! beautiful tutorial thanks! I am writing to you from Italy, unfortunately there are not so many bright houses here, 90 percent of the times the houses have little natural light and the ceilings are very high and often frescoed. The result is always an unnatural image and you always run the risk of having horrible halos near the windows that are difficult to fix in post. Your tutorial works great if your home base is well lit. can you make a video to mix darker images? Please answer me, I'd like to send you the raw files to make you understand a classic example. tkyvm!
arent all of the adjustments after the stamp/merge all layers destructive edits? as opposed to using the adjustments in the bottom of the layers panel
Super!🤩
nice tutorial for a newbie in editing real estate. I suggest to label the layers on your next video. thank you
great video was helpfull thanks man.
Not much nonsense, so I enjoyed the rest! History Brush! Who knew?! GREAT!!
THANK YOUUUUU.
good job Hunter
Can someone give me a low to high exposure and flash for interior? I really need it for practice purposes
What makes you choose this method instead of Flambient? And vise versa?

Chris Stanton Whenever I’m shooting a house, I typically go with flambient but some times I get clients who shoot HDR and they want me to edit them so it looks similar to flash.
bruh, thank you ! if you do all your tutorials this cut and dry Im in for life. like, subcribe, and im ringin that bell.
Bi Hunter. I'm following your tutorial but am having trouble because I'm on a Mac and I don[t think you are so your shortcut keys are different. Could you please include the Mac versions of all commands?
Great job, just for me your outdoors are always a tat to strong like a heavy polarised and interior walls a litle bit dirty but thats just me...
Why do you remove sharpening in LR? Do you do it in PS after export?

That's my problem with this style of editing. It looks amazing of course! But This seems like it'd take all day to edit one house which makes the shoot no longer profitable. Especially with multiple shoots a day requiring 24hr turn around.

@@bartekbielinski5324 hahaha no, I’m not saying that. Just trying to make sense of the principle of it. It’s a business, your goal is usually 1-2 shoots in a day ideally, and you wanna turn the product around ASAP. realtors are not okay with waiting longer than next day delivery usually in the markets I’ve worked. 😂 esp in a market that only yields about $150-250 a shoot. Give or take. So will all those factors, it makes it tough to justify. If it was a luxury shoot and yielding much more then maybe. It’s a learning game and I’m still trying to improve🤷🏻♂️
On a Mac to feather (4:02) you hit Select,Modify, then feather
Why do I do the same (i think i'm not, but try to) about on this video and my image look so Grey, Unsaturated, Crashed ? Like when you precompose for HDR for photoshop. I don't know what am i doing wrong!
Smudge tool. You were going to blow my mind with a smudge tool tip about working with windows. Please and thank you.

With all due respect to your excellence, there would be no way I (as a real estate photographer) could go through all this on a typical property tour of (average) 45 images, and deliver the assignment within 24 hours. It would just not be practical. I shudder to think how long the leaning curve would be to get to be proficient in all the steps you indicated in the video. Not only that, but individual monitors are so personalized (if calibrated at all), the subtleties would be purely subjective to the extent you've gone into. Please understand I am not faulting your knowledge, or expertise, but the process as described seems overwhelming. The way to get around it (for me) is to send the raw images to an outside resource that specializes in processing real estate images, and guarantees getting the corrected HDR shots back within a 24 hour period. It's worth the invested cost.
that window looks bad
i feel like the knowledge is there but this can be a bit hard to follow at times. You spent time explaining the brush tool which i feel anybody watching this should know already but then brush over other things ive never even heard of in photoshop, and you just leave them unexplained. Leaving me with the knowledge of what to do, but not really knowing why or what each quick little step you gloss over is actually doing to the image
Impressive PS knowledge …. Lots of pretenders out there … not you though!
Hello Hunter. I appreciate you wanting to do this but sadly I could not follow you at all, the way you explained it, to me at least, was very confusing, I went back and forth but could not understand it based on the way you were teaching it. sorry.
I hope you still don't do window pulls like that in 2024... dreadful.
