In this editing tutorial, Summerana guest instructor Lisset Perrier of Lisset Perrier Artistry shows you her step-by-step process for editing a Rapunzel composite straight from a storybook in Photoshop.

“This was a personal project as I love Disney themes, I was lucky to find the perfect princess with a long hair that inspired me to create this image. Kids have so much fun in this kind of sessions because they love to dress up! – Lisset Perrier
