Step 1: Preparation

You need to prepare an interior photo featuring a fireplace unit and a high-resolution image of flames. 

Here are some samples of fire frame we usually do to insert into clients’ photos

Step 2: Open both photos in Photoshop

On the photo with the fireplace unit, you start creating path for the fire by using Pen Tool

Then, you copy the fire flame which you want to add to the fire by using Ctrl + A, then Ctrl + C. 

On the interior photo, you use Alt + Shift + Ctrl V or you can click to Edit on the top bar, choose Paste Special, then click to Paste Into

Now the flame is in the fireplace. What you need to do now is resizing and fixing the perspective to make it natural. You can use Ctrl + T , then click on right mouse, and choose Distort to drag the flame to fit the fireplace.

Step 3: Using Screen Effect

The flame is in the fireplace, now you create screen effect by changing blending mode from Normal to Screen and fixing the capacity to 80%. 

To make the flame more natural and get rid of the fire image’s sharp edges, using a Brushing tool. You can adjust the hardness to 0% and remember to set black background. 

Here is the result.
