Expand Your Vision For Creative Image Making Through The Use Of Multiple Exposure (Online Learning – Six Sessions)
The practice of using multiple exposures to create a single image can bring dreamlike, surreal, and otherworldly qualities to photography and expands the possibilities for imagination and vision. Fine-art photographer Manuela Thames demonstrates methods that can be applied to all genres, from portraits and landscapes to abstract and still life.
As participants become more comfortable with the techniques, they explore topics such as choosing the right images and pre-visualizing results, what elements to look for, when to employ black and white versus color, and how all those choices affect the final photograph.

Magic of Multiple Exposure
The practice of using multiple exposures to create a single image can add depth and layers—as well as dreamlike and surreal elements—to all genres of photography.
We begin with a step-by-step introduction to the Adobe Photoshop techniques that bring your vision to life by combining two or more images: blending modes, layer masks, and other helpful tools and adjustments. As we repeatedly review and practice the Photoshop steps through various assignments, Manuela also shares advice and direction for creating multiple exposures in-camera, illuminating the creative advantages and disadvantages of both methods.
