I had posted this in my portfolio and had a couple of comments and someone asking how it was done. I decided to share it in here and try to explain how I did it. I am not good at explaining these because I just play until I get what I like. I am sure there is an easier way. And in answer to Judy, no it's not my daughter, it my ex-husbands daughter. Is she not beautiful. She loves to make up her own poses too, so she is so much fun to shoot.



I used a lake photo that had some fluffy cloud in the sky then layered the girls on there. The 3 girl photos were taken in a studio using angel wings. (I erased some of the background on the angels before applying them to the cloud picture. I didn't worry much with this because the background was white anyway.) I placed the angels where I wanted them and then erased the rest of the backgrounds I felt like needed to be. I duplicated the clouds photo layer and put it as the top layer. I brought down the opacity so I could see the angels and then erased the areas in the top layer where I wanted the angels to show thru. I left some of the clouds to stay in front to help the apppearance of them sitting in the cloud. I just erased, changed opacity, and did adjustments on all the layers till I got what I liked.
