Double exposures have come a long way since the early days of film. With Photoshop, we can quickly and easily combine multiple exposures to help tell the story of our travels, capture a bride and groom with the romantic environment of their wedding, or create out-of-this-world conceptual images that stretch our creativity.
In this tutorial, we start with the basics of what makes a double exposure work and how you can find and capture the best possible images to blend together. Then we walk you through several examples, combining two, three, and up to four different images. Learn to master Blending Modes, Smart Objects, Layers Masks, and more!
What is a Double Exposure?
While some of the methods for getting a double exposure effect have changed, the definition remains the same. With film, you can take a photo and then, without advancing the film, take another. This results in two images being exposed on the same piece of a film, creating a creative combination. Photoshop gives us the ability to do the same thing with any two (or more photos), with more options and precision than ever before.

Double Exposure Portraits
Tell a story about your subject by combining an photo of them with another photo that helps reinforce the tone that you’re going for. Taking a portrait of a bride and groom? Combine that exposure with pictures of flowers, decorations, and the location of the wedding. Going for something more conceptual? Combine a portrait with images of epic landscapes and rich textures.
Double Exposure Landscapes
From dense forests, to a shining cityscape, to a star-filled sky, landscape images are perfect for combining with other photos in Photoshop.
