Face Swapping

Let Us Guide You Through the Practice of Digital Face Swapping for Guaranteed Great Groupshots

IT SOUNDS LIKE a medical procedure, but fear not – the face swapping here doesn’t involve any surgical knowledge. All you need is two or more images from the same group portrait, some editing software and a few minutes of your time.

Generally, face or head swapping comes into its own when photographing groups of people – inevitably in any group portrait there will be at least one person who’s blinking, sneezing, looking at their phone or not paying attention when you press the shutter. Therefore, it’s always wise to capture a series of images, each a second or two apart, from the same focal length and position. Providing you have at least one pleasing frame of each person, you can carry out this simple technique. The result is a final image in which you’ve managed to get everyone to look nicely at the camera at the same time. Let’s get into it.
