Im taking pictures of someone as they progress through their pregnancy. I would like to combine these photos into one photo to show how big she gets. Does anyone offer this to their clients?


I use gimp for my program to edit. Is there a good tutorial for this or could anyone help me please?

What do you mean by combining them into one photo? Do you want to overlay them, on top of one another...or do you want a series of images put together and arranged separately in a larger image.

I want to place her in several poses through out her pregnancy in diffrent locations of the picture.

something along the lines of this :

That's just a matter of cutting and pasting. The tricky part will be doing a good job of the cut outs (extractions).

I don't use Gimp, so I don't know how to help you in that regard, but it's fairly easy and a very common thing to do with Photoshop. Try a Google search for 'extraction+gimp' and see if you can find a tutorial.
