Realistic Dual Photo Composite

I have two individual shots—each featuring a different person—and I need them blended into a single photograph that looks as though both were photographed together. The end result must feel completely natural: matching lighting direction and intensity, believable shadows, accurate proportions, and seamless color grading. Please keep the edit photorealistic; anything that hints at illustration or cartoon styling won’t meet the brief.

I’ll supply the two high-resolution source images. You return:
• A print-ready JPEG (300 dpi)
• The layered PSD or equivalent file so I can fine-tune if necessary

Before delivering, double-check for consistent skin tones, edge clean-ups around hair, and alignment of body perspective; these details usually give composites away. If you’re confident working in Photoshop (or your preferred pro-grade editor) and enjoy finessing subtle lighting and shadow work, I’d love to collaborate.
