Being a blogger, I need to have the ability to edit my photos. And the more that I take photos for the website, I realize I enjoy taking photos of friends and family. Editing those photos was never my favorite process of photography. Well, at least not until I got Adobe Photoshop Elements. 
I received a copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements 2020 in exchange for this post.

I got to play with Adobe Photoshop Elements 2020. First photo I tried to play with was a simple edit – brightening up the colors and cropping the photo – to make it pop.
One of my favorite edits though was to make a color photo black and white – but then highlight the color of the bouquet. Made a photo simple and elegant with just a little editing.
But taking a real photo and turning it into a pencil sketch… That took the cake! This one is going to be sent in to make it into a canvas and given as a Christmas Gift.
This sounds like a great idea.
