Double/Multiple Exposure

Double exposure photography is a technique that layers two different exposures on a single image, combining two photographs into one. Double exposure creates a surreal feeling for your photos and the two photographs can work together to convey deep meaning or symbolism. A similar technique, called a “multiple exposure,” is when you combine more than two exposures in a single image.

Examples of double exposure in photography.

For my double and multiple exposure photos, I used the ones we took in the studio and stacked them on top of each other. I used both the coloured photos and the regular lighting photos to blend them and give two different perspectives.

Compared to the other photo, in this one I stacked three photos and lowered the opacity of each one, compared to the other photo, where the opacity stayed the same.

Two original photos I combined.
For this photo i chose to focus on one part of it – the eyes. I put an orange background photo in and combined it with the studio lighting.
Two photos I used to create the double exposure, for this I stacked the orange coloured photo over the plain one so that the two colours wouldn’t clash.
