We have a new grandson and I have some really good shots of him. Is there a easy way in photoshop to get rid of the red sploches in his skin?
Portrait professional 2 on Amazon $49.00
I would look up Pic Monkey and install it, then add the upgrade for $5 a month, which then includes the airbrush tool. Apply to the skin just very lightly to cover the discoloration. (It allows you to adjust opacity with sliders) Super easy! If you are not looking to learn more software tools then something simple such as this would be plenty and you could play with several effects for the photos too. Perfect for beginners to play or just for anyone that wants to "help" their pics a little or even change them drastically, but very easily. Good luck...ahh, I just noticed you mentioned Photoshop, so yes clone tool would be perfect if you have that! :)

If you post the pic(s) I'm sure someone will do it for you.
For small ones the healing brush works great. I always fix a few pictures and leave the rest. Because that is how they were as newborns and I want to remember that part of them as well.
You might try converting some to black and white, which can be a classic look and easily takes care of the coloring issue. Just be sure to save the files with a different file name before converting them because it can be difficult (or impossible) to change them back to color once you've made the b&w. Enjoy the new baby!

I use Portrait professional 9, and I love it. Best investment you can make if you take a lot of portraits.

I just did a workshop with Julie Klaasmeyer this past weekend who does babies and children. She recommends using the spot healing brush. She said she hardly ever touches the clone tool unless it is something really big. But she did wonders with the spot heal brush when editing after a live session that I sat in on.
