Photoshop efficiency-tips

Photoshop is an immense application, packed full of so many features that almost no one will ever discover them all, or how to use them to their full potential.  With so many features also comes a bunch of shortcuts and hotkeys, which are often hidden away in documentation, and in my experience, most people only use things recommended by other people, or things they find by accident.
So here are the shortcuts and various bits of trickery I use literally every single day in Photoshop, to make life just a little bit less painful.  Some may seem so simple that ‘everyone should know THAT one’, but that’s not the case.  If even 10 people find something new here that helps their workflow, then my mission has been accomplished.

Learning some photo editing skills is very important as it will save you a lot of costs. Instead of paying a photo editor each time you complete a photo shoot, doing it yourself can save you some cash. Editing will also inspire creativity in your craft because editing has very many tools. Your creativity in making unique and beautiful imagery will increase. Make sure you learn all the needed skills and know-how not to go overboard with your editing; too much editing can also reduce the quality of the photos.
