Command/Ctrl-click photo shape. Create new layer above the image. Draw shadow on the photo.

Use pen tool to draw this shape. Put it behind the camera.

Step 95

Next, draw a big rounded rectangle. Pull two points on lower side up. Add a rectangle path and set it to Subtract mode.

Create new layer and place it under all layers. Draw a rectangular selection under the camera. Click Select > Modify > Feather, set radius to 35 pixels. Fill selection with black.

Step 97

Use brush tool to draw darker shadow right under the camera.
