Please help me with photo engrave edit

[tx4thgradetchr]

I’ve tried for weeks to edit this photo to engrave it on wood. I’ve had to merge the 3 ladies in the photo together from funeral brochures because 2 have passed away. I’ve tried a couple different editing photo programs and it just isn’t my forte. I’m no good at photoshop feeling totally defeated. I just want to get this project done so that I can make things I’d like to make. I appreciate any help anyone can offer.

Welcome to the forum, wish it were on less frustrating terms.

This may help to get you closer. The hardest part is that the brightness/contrast on the three images are fairly different from each other. I attempted to even them up. Also, if you’re not already doing so I recommend the 2 passes technique described here for engraving.

Thank you so much for the photo edit. I was able to complete what was asked of me. An enormous load has been lifted. Thank you again.
