Watermarks are a common way to deter photo theft, and they can also be used to promote your brand or website. Photoshop makes it easy to add watermarks to multiple photos at once. Here’s how:

1. Start by opening the image or images you want to add a watermark to in Photoshop. You can use the ‘File > Open’ menu, or simply drag and drop the image into Photoshop.

2. Create a new layer for your watermark by clicking the ‘Create a New Layer’ icon at the bottom of the Layers panel. This will open the ‘New Layer’ dialog box.

3. In the ‘New Layer’ dialog box, name your layer and click ‘OK’.

4. Add your watermark to the new layer by choosing the ‘Text’ tool from the Toolbox, then clicking and dragging to create a text box on your image. Type your watermark text into the text box, then use the ‘Text Color’ picker to choose a color for your text.

5. To position your watermark, click on the layer in the Layers panel and use the move tool to drag it into place.

6. To resize your watermark, select the ‘Transform’ tool from the Toolbox and click and drag one of the corner handles of the text box.

7. To apply your watermark to multiple images, open all of the images you want to add it to in Photoshop, then click on the watermark layer in one image and drag it over to the other images. The watermark will be applied to all of the open images.

Conclusion:
Watermarks are a great way to protect your photos from being stolen, or to promote your brand or website. Photoshop makes it easy to add watermarks to multiple photos at once using layers and the transform tool.

This tutorial showed you how to add a watermark to multiple photos in Photoshop using layers and the transform tool.
