Studio | Portrait Progress

To finish off my project, I played around on photoshop using different double exposure techniques. First, I cropped my head shot so that it’s isolated from the background (using the pen to select and the refine tool to dispose of all unwanted, loose hair). Then, copying the selection over to my backdrop of images I have collaged, I began to work my two images into one. Carefully using a masking layer on my back image, I finished by erasing, manipulating levels, and then choosing a Screen blending option to create an overall, ghostly blend. On close observation you can identify the images in the backdrop that create a dreamlike disposition. image
