Give your photograph an Antique Look

In this tutorial I will teach you how to give an Antique Look to your photograph.
This is a very simple tutorial, so lets get started. I'm using this photograph




To this

Step 1-

First of all open your photograph.
And then unblock the photo layer by double click on it and after that press OK.
After that go to Filter > Noise > Dust and Scratches. Set the Radius to 2 and Threshold 0.

Step 2-

After that duplicate the photo layer. Select duplicated photo layer, go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur. Set Radius to 4.

Step 3-

After that make a Layer Mask on the duplicated layer. On the mask, create a Radial Gradient as shown in the screenshot below.

Step 4-

After that Download "Vintage Background". Resize it to cover the photograph nicely. Go to Image > Adjustments > Desaturate.
I'm using this one.


And then set the Blend Mode of vintage background to Soft Light.

Step 5-

After that Download "Grunge Background". Resize it to cover the photograph nicely. Go to Image > Adjustments > Desaturate.
I'm using this one.


And then set the Blend Mode of grunge background to Multiply.

Step 6-

Then, go to Image > Adjustments > Brightness and Contrast. Set the Brightness to 50. And create a Levels Adjustment Layer. Set the values to 15, 1.48, 255.

Step 7-

And the last step is to create a Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer. Check on Colorize. Set the Hue to 38, Saturation to 22 and Lightness to 0 and its done!
