See How These Creators Use Multiple Exposures To Transform Ordinary Into Extraordinary

Double exposures, composite images and long exposures allow photographers to convey complex emotions, tell stories or simply create visually stunning art pieces by merging different elements within a single frame. These techniques add an artistic element to photography and we love seeing how the Sony community uses them. We’ve compiled a group of artists who use their Sony cameras to create images with multiple exposures. Check out their work and give them a follow. And for your chance to be featured be sure to tag your images #SonyAlpha and follow @SonyAlpha on Instagram.

Julia Icy is a  portrait, fashion, and lifestyle photographer based in Spain. She is known for her warm and dreamy images. She recently shared the post below, with images from a shoot in Barcelona using her Sony Alpha 7R III, Sony 35mm f/1.4 G Master and Sony 85mm f/1.4 G Master. She created this double exposure of a landscape shot and portrait. We love the golden light throughout the frame and the blend of the shots. 

Henry Tieu – @henrysdiary

Engagement, elopement and wedding photographer Henry Tieu aims to photograph beautiful moments of life and to create memories his clients will want to cherish. Based in Seattle, the Sony Brand Ambassador travels all over to document love in its most honest forms. He has a special focus on adventure and outdoor weddings. He frequently experiments with multiple exposures and artistic edits on his images. We love the romantic double exposure below, the contrast of the cool blues and warm lights really draw the viewer in. Learn more about his double exposure process in this Behind The Shot article.

Andrew Eggers – @andreweggers

Andrew Eggers is a California-based photographer and a Sony Brand Ambassador. Andrew specializes in night shooting and astrophotography, often using light in his images to bring out a unique perspective. He was recently out in New Mexico with his Sony ZV-E1 and Sony 12-24mm f/2.8 G Master when it began to storm. He quickly took a number of images and ended up creating a composite of two shots to create the image below. We love seeing the crackling lightning bolts and the swell of the clouds. 

Garrette Baird – @The_Garrette

Garrette Baird runs a wedding photography video production company (Eyenamics) alongside his wife, Amber Baird. The two of them are incredible storytellers and Sony Artisans of Imagery. Outside of wedding films, Garrette is an endlessly curious creator, always looking to make something new and fresh. In October 2023, he attended Creative Space in New York and had the opportunity to photograph these ballet dancers. He immediately thought about how stunning they would look in slow motion video and wanted to capture that fluidity in a single image. He ultimately created the image below with his Sony Alpha 1, Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 G Master II and compositing about 10 images. Learn more about the story in his Behind The Shot article.

Jess Santos – @missjessbess

Jess Santos is a Sony Brand Ambassador who creates inspiring astroscapes. She composes her images of the night sky, usually including a perspective that includes the landscape in the foreground, leading the eye to a beautiful backdrop of the Milky Way or an immense sky of stars. The colors of her images are bold, with prominent hues of blues, purples and pinks, yet they have warm undertones that add another layer of depth to them and help create truly magical images. She used the Sony Alpha 7R IV and the Sony 16-35mm f/2.8 G Master to create the composite below. 

Oscar Lindsey – @thevisuallife_

Oscar Lindsey is a photographer known for his visual style and willingness to push the boundaries with his images. His industry experience is growing quickly as he is working on global campaigns and creating visually inspiring photo and video assets for industry-leading brands. Oscar started off his photography journey in London, mainly focusing on urban and night photography, but has found himself shooting a much wider variety of content, such as travel and automotive, as his style has developed along with his passion for making images. He recently created the image below with the Sony Xperia 5 V while flying a drone over the tree to create the light ring. In the caption he states, “This shoot was a lot of fun, especially when you’re able to capture shots like this with just your phone!” 

Mika Geiger – @mika.geiger

Mika Geiger is a nature and travel photographer based in Austin, Texas. As you scroll through her account you’ll see colorful flowers, insects and more up close and personal. It’s truly impressive how she finds an insect and composes an entire scene using their environment to show what they are doing. She’s a member of the Sony Alpha Female Facebook group where she partakes in the Micro-Grant challenges frequently. When the theme was “abstract” she won with this stunning image, which is a long exposure of koi swimming. We love seeing her work and seeing her push herself creatively in the Alpha Female community! 

Fredrik Axling – @fredrik.axling

Fredrik Axling is a photographer and techno music enthusiast. Scrolling through his Instagram page, you’ll see warm-toned images in the style of street photography and urban landscape. Fredrik shoots with the Sony Alpha 7R V, Sony Alpha 7 IV and Sony 50mm f/1.2 G Master. He’s been experimenting with double exposure images quite a bit on his Instagram. And we love how the image below turned out. We love the light slicing through the middle of the frame and the storytelling nature of the image. For more creative street photography, be sure to give Fredrik a follow!
