What do you call this kind of photo??

Lucifer-0

Just looking for the name of it so I know what to Google!

I've seen photos where the same person appears multiple times in the same image.

What do you call those?

Thanks.

double or more exposure if its film?

from http://www.lomography.com/photos/tags/15444-double-exposure/13453829



or it can be when you leave a camera on a tripod and fire a few shots of a person moving around and later photoshop them together? try the term cloning in photoshop


googled.

Without seeing an example it could be a number of things - as mentioned by S&S above it could be a double exposure, or digitally enhanced.

It could also be a long exposure, and using a flash to "Freeze" the subject in the places where the flash is popped.

I love doing these, I do them in one exposure in the pitch dark.






I have a gallery of them here:

Multiple exposure for the sharp images, such as second posted by spinandscribble and long such as first.

The multiple exposure is a spin off from the double exposure of film days whereby a filter such as this would be attached to the lens
the photographer would be very careful to ensure that the scene has remained unchanged and camera not moved, only thing to move would be the black part of the filter. The photo would be developed by the respective halfs of the following two exposures, note I have not got a clue about developing and terms so it may be explained better.

In this digital era it is much easier, in fact I do it myself with bridal couples from time to time not even using a tripod. Example: (only one of mine I can find quickly online at the minute

the method I use would be to open the first picture and cut the area of the groom for the next and layer into the pic with both, then cut the bride out of the picture of her behind the tree and layer into the first, I would smooth out the edges to ensure it is as natural looking as possible.

There is also stroboscopic photography.

Which is great at capturing motion.

@smelltheglove, would that type of shot be popular with brides and grooms these days?

If you have a decent flash it can probably do multi flash. Find a subject and a dark room.

If this is what you mean its easy enough. Just do a panorama shot and get the person to move into eaqch shot. later auto stitch in photshop. I call it 'auto-stitchy-multi-movey-person --swivle photography'
