Hello. I shot different items against the same gray background in several shots but the gray background isn’t consistent throughout all the images in terms of exposure. Is there a way to make the exposure of the gray background consistent throughout all the images? Thanks for any help. (I tried YouTube but really didn’t find anything relevant to my situation)

Hi Didier, thanks for your message. I tried this but couldn't seem to get any results. Here are 2 photos if you would like to try. I want to apply the darker gray background shade in the photo of the man to the photo of the lady so that both backgrounds look the same. Thanks.  A.jpgB.jpg

You are right… my suggestion doesn't work with these pics. It changes the wole image and even do not work well on background…

I think it cannot be achieved  without separating the subject from the background.

What I would do (but certainly not the best…)

  • Sample a gradient from B

  • Select the subject and invert the selection (can be improved by duplicating layer and refine the selection and masking for the hair)
  • Apply the gradient with radial setting

But again, this would require to manually ajust the selection to get hair tarnsparency which could not be recorded as an action. So if you have 100 pics to work on it and are looking for a batch processing we should find another solution

Best

Didier

Another way is to create a Levels Adjustment layer. Then, use the middle eyedropper to click the gray (it'll adjust and neutralize the entire image, plus the gray background). Then, Save your Levels Preset and apply it (Load Levels Preset) to each of the other images.
