Levitation effect using Photoshop

Jaquelin floating with umbrella

For the Levitation project we used a tripod, a camera with 55mm lens and a chair.

For our photos I decided to have an idea for a concept mostly related to floating, most of the time I did have to consider how I take a photo of the person and the background, so it doesn't come out uneven.

We only used one prop which was the umbrella so we can use an effect that she is floating holding the umbrella. Even though my pictures were taken well I need to improve my editing skills as their noticeable shadows of the chairs I used.

The editing process is easy, all I have to do is import the photos to lightroom then edit them in photoshop as layers then put layer masks on each layer and use the brush tool to delete the chair or whatever there standing on to add the effect, but the extra layer has to match the top layer.
