How to take multiple pictures and convert to 1.


I am trying to create a holiday card with my family and animals. It is way too difficult to get everyone in one photo. How do I take a few different pictures digitally and make one picture that I can use as a holiday card. We have 2 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 adults. Thanks.

  You can mask off the images you want , then place thes layers onto a new background, then flatten/merge the image to create a composite or collage.
Selection can be with a preset shape, lasso tool, magic wand tool, or manually selecting points to create selection around the image you wish to cut. The more busy and finer the detailing around the image you wish to mask or cut from the original image, the longer it takes; so when taking the people, pets, use a single color background if possible. Then the majority of the selection around the image you wish to save can be selected using the magic wand tool.
