Hi there,
That does not sound good, could you please let us know the version of Photoshop you're working with?
Could you please check this article and let us know if it helps? -ins-photoshop-troubleshooting.html

Me too! But my problem started after Adobe Tech suppprt fixed a problem I was having with the mixer brush. Now portraiture is not working. If you try to close it out, it freezes up and the only way you can shut it down is with a forced quit. My OS is up to date. I had to update drivers for Wacom, and PS is on update 21. Something.
Thanks Crazy, They overcharge for their product now, and don't answer any quesitons via any channels whatsoever. So I am trying now Portrait Pro. If you find out what happened to Imagenomic let me know. They used be great/ and reasonable, guy George who answered everythnig promtly and now become a basket case.
I originally bought the full suite and when newer versions of Photoshop came out they wouldn't acknowledge my license for an update, became abusive and then ghosted me entirely. If I want to continue to use it I have to run a old version of PS.
Any help on how to erase portraiture effect from portions of an image in PS? I'm a beginner. I like to smooth the whole image but brush portraiture off certain areas...I thought I'd done it successfully before but it must've been dumb luck because I can't replicate it. Appreciate your help!
Hi Courtney. As c.p. is saying, we need to know we are understanding your question. I am not sure what you mean by 'portraiture effect' so if you paste a screen shot of the image with further explaination, I am sure we'll work it out.
Be aware though, that if this is a single layer flat image then it is not possible to erase part of it and expose the original image, If we can see your entire workspace with the image and layers panel, we'll know how best to help you.
so I apply imagenomic portraiture effect using a PS plugin and on this image I ran it super high it would be obvious if erasing it worked. Here is the screenshot showing the history. Essentially I need to be able to run it on its own layer so I can erase parts of it and I thought that's what I was doing but I'm messing it up somehow.
I should probably mention that I did not use a brush above, but instead used the gradient tool using black to transparent. That lets us make smooth transitions, and with it being black to transparent, we can build the effect by running multiple gradients. The other option is to use black to white, but that causes each new gradient to overwrite the previous gradients.
I have re-done the mask below running the gradient the full width of the image. You can see the smooth gradient in the mask and the more gradual hiding of the plugin effect. Please ask if you have any questions.
Pulling the JPG into Photoshop, the actual first step is to create a duplicate layer. This initial duplicate layer is the one that I retouch any skin blemishes on. I use the Clone and Healing Brush in Photoshop for this. (The person who designed the Healing Brush should be nominated for a Nobel Prize.)
On the duplicate layer of the Shine Off edit, I run Portraiture. This too is one of those plug-ins that made a huge difference in my workflow for portrait photography. The Portraiture plug-in renders skin smoothly. Too many photographers run Portraiture aggressively though, giving that plastic doll look to skin. Not good.
Then as a final step, I added a black-and-white version of the photograph as another layer, and blended it as an Overlay layer at reduced opacity. It changes the contrast in a way that I like. However, I brought back some of the detail in the darker areas of her hair, by brushing it in with the layer mask.
I use Imagenomic Portraiture on a lot of my female model shots. At default but then adjusted to taste with the opacity toned down. It is an absolute gem of a plug in!
I was very interested to hear about the layer where you add in a mono copy of the file for contrast change. Can you possibly expand on that or should i be able to understand how it is dealt with from your narrative?
As usual extremely interesting
What about the skin tones ?
What is your tip for that : your model are very alive with the perfect skin tone every time
Do you do it with a correct exposure only or do you balance it with LR using a method of yours ?
Thanks a lot for the trick
A fantastic article (again) with plenty of takeaway ideas for all parts of the workflow. I note that you utilise a lot of add-ins here rather than using many of the in-built standard functions within Photoshop. Do you find the results from the add-ins to be notably better than anything that can be done with Photoshop standard tools or do these simply make your workflow quicker? If the latter, roughly how long would you consider too long when working on a single portrait like this (granted, this is a fairly subjective question) and if use of standard tools in Photoshop is just time-consuming, what about using the Actions function to speed up and simplify?
Hi Neil, do you create your own camera calibration profiles for LR, or do you use the default profiles as a base. i use a D300 and i find the color shift can be very different especially in skin tones.
For anybody else interested: I have been using Nik Software Color Efex Pro 3.0, and there is an effect called Tonal Contrast that very closely mimicks Topaz Adjusts Detailed effect, to my eyes. You can substitute Topaz Adjust in the blog article above for Nik Software Color Efex Pro 3.0 Tonal Contrast and achieve similar results.
Mika,
Shine off for the Mac is written as 32-bit code. Photoshop CS5 for the Mac runs in 64-bit mode, so you cannot see the plug-in in the filter menu. You would have to right-click on photoshop.app and select the option to run it in 32-bit mode to be able to see the filter.
My questions from this post are:
1. Do you use or advice to use any mask from the shine-off, potraiture and topaz steps? Will those steps not affect other parts of the picture?
2. In your last step when you add B&W set to Overlay, which version of the photo did you use (i mean from which step)?
3. The Portraiture plugin price is a bit too high, is it OK to use Topaz Clean? It does have some feature on smoothing the skin and the price is reasonable. Will it achieve the same thing?
My workflow is I create a layer mask where specific areas of the image gets processed by Portraiture or some localized sharpening. The step that consumes most of my time is hair selection and I wish there was a way to speed up that. How do you handle hair?
