The Underground - In camera multi exposure portraits

I'd like to present to the community, my in camera multi exposure project “neon underground”. A vibrant, complex, deceiving world of dust, smoke and colour.

I shot 2 models in Freedom Mills in Leeds, with various coloured gels whilst also light painting and adding in a bit of pixelstick action into a few of the backgrounds to give the neon look, This gave the base image. After that the images were then exposed again over stained card, paint, burnt & cut paper as well as glitter paper, this allowed these images to be created in camera using the Canon 5D MKiii and with absolutely no Photoshop.

I'd love to know what you think.

Very cool to achieve this in camera. Lots to love here. Color pallet. Models. Outfits. Great Work.

Many thanks indeed for the glowing feedback Jared, It really does mean a lot. I'm looking at doing a similar themed shoot like this again soon so it's great to know you're a fan.

Wow! Love these shots.

Many thanks indeed man

Cheers for the feedback William, and you're right on the mark about visiting this setup again. I have several new concepts all based around this kind of look but with vastly more movement in. The settings varied from shot to shot there was no 1 setting, especially on the secondary exposures

I really like the play with the colors. Great shots!

very nice, I especially love 1,3, and 5

DUDE, please do a tutorial on how to do this. or post a link to one. this is awesome work
