I was asked recently how to do watermarks in Photoshop. This is a great technique to know so you can protect all your photos or creations you want to protect so others can't steal it. I should also let you know that this isn't the only way but this is what I find to be an easy way for me. The way I choose to do it is by making a brush with our desired watermark image. So let's get started.
First you want to start by making the watermark. You can do just your business name, a symbol, your initials or your name or anything else you can think of. If you are going to create anew watermark like I did using type, choose the type setting you want create the look you want all on a second layer so that we can delete the paper and leave behind just the type. I chose to do my type color in gray so it's not so dark because you don't want to dominate your photo (or maybe you do, who am I to determine that!)


Now we're ready to define this as a brush. Go to Edit/Define Brush and rename your brush to whatever you'd like.

OK--I have a request. How do you make the colors in your pic seem brighter? I'm not quite sure how to describe this effect, but I've seen it on SO many photog blogs/sites. The colors look normal, just a little more intense. Anyway--I would LOVE if you could show how to do that! :)
