Originally posted by wheeledd: There is a trick that some claim will make it easy: take two pictures of your subject in each pose, one with glasses and one without. Then put the two images together as separate layers with the "glasses" image in front. Align the layers and then erase the glass in the glasses to show the eyes taken without glasses.
I've actually never done this. Seems like it would be a pain to get the subject to maintain head position to get a duplicate without glasses that would be close enough to line up adequately.

That's essentially what Jane Connor-Ziser is demonstrating in the Photoworkshop tutorial linked before this post. Her two poses do not match precisely, thought hey are close, and she uses the editing tools and guidelines to bring them into alignment, and then works with masks on the overlying layer, which is the eyes-only layer — as opposed to laying a BG copy over the eye-only layer and erasing the glass. I can't hear the voiceover so I am not sure why she does it that way.
