I have been asked if i can provide an image of a couple inside a drinking glass,(not a wedding). Whilst I have some ideas, I'm not 100% sure if I would be going about it in the right way and am yet to try it.
Can anyone offer a short tutorial or a link to where I can find a good tutorial.

Thanks
 
Something like this? -

 
Thanks John, that helps, In this tutorial the dome is already made via layers by the looks of it. I need to work out how to make the glass first.
Some of the other tutorials were good as well.
Cheers.
 
At one time it was all the rage, there was even a filter kit to it made by Cokin, you had a clear filter with a black dot in the center and a black filter with a hole, you did a double exposure. Think I still have the filters somewhere.
Now with digital it's easy enough to do in photoshop.

Yes, just been looking at some more tutorials, bit of a long process, but ending result looks good.
 
Tried that, they were not happy.
 
How about this? Get a suitable glass and shoot it against a white background. Take one shot with a piece of paper with a grid on it in the glass. The distortion of the grid will show you how to distort the picture of the couple. Distort the couple. The grid shot is then no longer needed. Take one shot with a white piece of paper inside to get the dark bits. Make the white transparent and overlay it over the couple. Finally take a shot with a black piece of paper or cloth in the glass. This gives you the reflections. Make the black transparent and move it to the top layer.

Dita von Teese does a routine with a giant glass. It won't help much but you could watch it under the realms of 'research'
