Composite Photography for Large Commercial Clients

Photography Tips

Composite photography is the art of taking multiple photographs and layering elements of them together, creating a unique digital image. The art not only takes a lot of time spent shooting on location, it also requires quite a bit of time spent in Photoshop, crafting the images together. Composite photography artist, Eric Almas, takes us on a behind the scenes look as he journeys to three locations to create an ad campaign for Credit Suisse Bank & Oxygen Scooters. Check out all the work that is put into the campaign in the following video:

And that was just the shooting phase of creating a composite image. Almas undoubtly spent multiple hours behind a computer making sure that every element of the image was perfectly in place. Here’s the finished product; what do you think?

“I love the process of crafting pictures more so than taking them. Taking pieces and parts and making what becomes a unique image rather than going to a location and just capturing. The process is to start with the background layer then add layers to that from a second location and the studio.There will be a lot of things that will evolve as we craft this image.”
