We’ve updated this photo editing tutorial. Check out our new complete guide to double exposure photography.<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

This tutorial shows you how to create an amazing double exposure edit using the PicsArt app. A double exposure<\/a> is the skill of combining two photos into a single image.<\/p>\n

Start with a simple portrait as your main photo and then integrate a scene from a busy street over it to create an awesome surreal portrait.<\/p>\n

The final result will have your friends gushing in the comments section and asking you to spill the beans on your editing secrets. The best part is that it\u2019s pretty simple to do; just follow the steps below.<\/p>\n
