Editing play time

Cat and Connie in this collage. After a days shoot with the girls, all of the pieces are made up of added extras that were in the background and part of the girls styling.
Using layers and blend modes, infra red film and fog effects. Transforming the sizes of each image to add a different dimension to the style. I wanted to keep this dark and sexy... like Mel!
