"All these self-portraits are made randomly with a remote control. To get this kind of effect with the Multi-Exposure Kit, I usually choose a dark subject with a light or clear background for the first shot. Then I shoot a second exposure that fills the dark part of the subject, softens the mid-tones and disappears in the clear background of the first exposure. Normally I choose a subject that is not well lit, to enhance the contrast with the first shot. Other combinations are also possible to get different results, i.e. lighting up the subject of the first shot, you will then obtain a more homogeneous effect. I also use flashes for different effects, for a sharper image, and the flexibility to shoot in any kind of light conditions.
The hardest part is visualizing the first shot, and already imagining the parts to be filled with the second shot. My tip is to shoot and try again and again and again!"
