If you're looking for a portrait technique with a twist then photography expert Gavin Hoey http://www.gavtrain.com has just the answer.

The technique involves taking multiple images and then using a simple montage effect in Photoshop to join three images into one single photo.

The video starts with a strobist lighting tutorial and is completed by the full Photoshop technique so you can watch the whole photo shoot from start to finish.
