When I was making this, I honestly did not know how it would end up until the exact end because I didn't really know what I was try to make. I was just going with the flow.
• • • Let's Begin • • •
What You'll Need. - At least two photos of your choice. One for the background. The others can be of the people/things you want on your cover. You can have as much photos as you want. - Superimpose. - Phonto. - Afterlight.
Just a PSA: you don't need Afterlight. You just need an app that helps you edit it photos whether it's Afterlight, VSCO, or any other app. I just want to make sure I make that known so you don't think it's an absolute must.
Step One. Gather your photos. If you want a cohesive look, find your photos of the people/things you want then find the background so then it all meshes together. This is much easier than finding background first then finding the people.
If you'd like more tips on where to find HQ photos of people, let me know!
So, find your photos. Get options. Some may work better than others. With the background photo, I recommend editing it first. Also, if it's lower quality, just add some grain and you're good.
Step Two. Now that you've gathered your photos, go to Superimpose and set this black photo (↓) as your background and your background photo of choice as your foreground. Then just "blow up" the photo so it fits onto the background. Merge the photos when done.
