I’ll go through the steps I used to create the double exposure image you see above and hope that it will help you create your own. To begin with, for the purpose of this tutorial I have used photos from Pexels and Unsplash and the links for those are here if you want to try and follow along. Though I encourage you to take you own or use different ones for a different effect.

Note: I am using GIMP for this tutorial because that is what I use. I am sure that users of photoshop or other software will be able to follow along and so the same but I will not show where the settings for each tool are in photoshop. It’s simple stuff though so I’m sure you can find it.
Step 1 — The model photograph
This is the photo we are starting with. To make this effect work properly you ideally want a contrasty image on a plain white background. You can either shoot like this using a white background or cut out a background to make it white.
