You could do exactly what it&#8217;s designed for and use it as a background for your studio shots. All you&#8217;d need to do is shoot on a clean background (light grey works best) and then simply extract the model and paste them in. I made an in depth video tutorial with Mark Wallace on how that&#8217;s done last year.

Simply paste it over your photo, use a spot of Free Transofrm to make it fit and change the layer blending mode. Multiply, Overlay and Hard Light (as used here) are three to try but don&#8217;t stop there.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">As always, if you create a photo using the Friday Freebie then let me (and everyone else) know by leaving the link in the comments below.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Usage rules<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong>The image is copyright Gavin Hoey 2014.
