I am in no way tech savvy but there must be an easier way these days to get a sepia tint to a black and white photograph. I know that I have managed it in the past but I have totally forgotten how and I am finding no real help or guidance either in the on-line tutorials or google. They all seem quite long winded and utterly confusing. Any help will be appreciated and the simpler the better. Thank you in advance.

Adjustment Layer > Photo Filter

Choose Sepia and adjust the intensity.

Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible? 

 

I would recommend converting to RGB if the image isn’t RGB not already and then

• using a Solid Color Layer set to Blend Mode Color or 

• a Gradient Map Adjustment Layer or 

• a Curves Layer …

Thank you Mr. Pfaffenbilcher,

 

You have just managed to confuse me even more, As I say I am not tech savvy so I do not understand what screen shots you would like.

Basically I collect old photographs whsich are either already in black & white or in sepia. I try to take the same or similar photographs today which are obviously in colour. Yes, I cam convert to B&W quite simply but I am struggling to find a realtively simple method by which I can convert a photograph into a sepia print or indeed just add a sepia  tint to a B&W photo or just a simple "wash" of a light sepia to a black and white photograph to give the appearance of ageing.

I struggle with most of the tools on Photoshop, or if not the tools themselves then their description. I suppose what I am looking for is a simple method like Image : Adjustments: and then the option of "sepia" with a precentage of colour added to the black and white tab or somewhere that can be easily found without having to struggle quite so much.

 

If you are able to offer a simple method that is easy to remember then I would be extremely grateful

 

Kind regards

»I do not understand what screen shots you would like.«

A screeenshot of the image open in Photoshop to see how far you have gotten so far. 

Talking about images but not actually showing them – how efficient does that seem to you? 

 

»a simple method like Image : Adjustments«

»simple« sometimes translates to »bad«, so I recommend you don’t apply Adjustment destructively but use 

• Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Gradient Map (and then change to Gardient according to your needs) or 

• Layer > New Fill Layer > Solid Color, select a brown color and set the Layer to Blend Mode Color or …
