No, I don't need a bike colored in or modified. This is a little different.
Ok, first a little background. I got married in May in St Pete Florida. My family flew down from D.C. to be there and my dad came down with a stomach virus the day before my wedding. He made it to the photo shoot before the ceremony and to the ceremony itself (he was a real trooper), but he just couldn't keep going after that. He missed the after-photos and the reception. Even 5 months later he can't watch the reception videos, he just gets too upset.
So I thought it would be really cool if I could chop him into one of the after-pics that he would have been in anyway. I'm making an album for my parents and I would like to include it. I threw this pic together to demonstrate what I'm looking to do, but I need someone with more photoshop talent to put it together for real. I have the high res images and can email them or post them to the web for downloading.
The pic from earlier in the day that includes my dad has different lighting on him and in the foliage behind. I was wondering if somebody here could throw this together for me. The sample chop job is a little off on his height (just a little shorter than me and taller than my wife, see the first pic).
And don't sweat the copyrights on the pics. We bought the entire set from the photographer.

With all the amazing talent we have here, I'm betting someone can do this. I hope so...it's a wonderful idea, and be sure to have the kleenex handy, because I think even a very manly-man would cry his eyes out when he gets this precious gift. :bowdown: :kiss3:

My son bought the rights to his wedding photos, too. It means he can use them in any way he wishes, so there are no copyright infringements.

That is correct. Hopefully that's what vtlion did. He just mentioned buying the entire set.

I got the entire set on DVDR as well. Part of the package. With a non-@$$hole photog, it's not that uncommon.
ok, I finally remembered this thread and got the pics on my PM. I'm already working on this, but it requires major surgery 8) so wait a bit.
As you said, the height has to be matched, but I want to keep an equal resolution pixelwise. (DONE)
Then the color and contrast/levels have to be matched (DONE)
Then I must make an extra piece of shoulder/upper arm, since he's taller than your wife (DONE)
Then I must completely erase your dad's background (65% or so DONE)
Then I must cut out half your wife, and clone it. This must be done because she will be in front of him (TODO)
Then I must work on veil. Must be semitransparent sp your dad is visible behind it (TODO)
Finally I must select a new composition, since your dad won't fit on the pic as it is, so maybe his right shoulder will be cut off, and I will have to cut off the foliage at the right of the pic by I love YOU to center the composition.
Hold on a little while please :icon_mrgreen:
