In this Photoshop tutorial, we'll learn how to create a classic mirror image effect with any photo by turning one side of the image into a mirror reflection of the other! This popular effect is often used in album covers and movie posters, and as we'll see, it's very simple to achieve. As always, I'll cover every step along the way so that even if you're a beginner, you can easily follow along!
Here's how the mirror image effect will look when we're done:

The checkerboard pattern that fills the new space is Photoshop's way of representing transparency, which means there's nothing actually there. It's just empty space on the layer. Chances are, we've given ourselves more room here than we need, but that's okay. We'll trim away any extra space when we're done:
