Abstract This exploratory study, examined the combination of digital and stencil photographic print to enhance communication and counseling in a borderless world. This study is a creative medium of expression using social life as case study. Digital photographic print is used to describe all print processes of transferring a document (images or text) on a personal computer or order storage device to be printed by device that accepts text and graphic output. Stencil photographic prints is the act of cutting open drawn/snaps images or text on any flat surface or material like paper to be registered on another permanent surface. The photographic illustrations that were created using the stencil and digital photographic technique separately for communication and counseling were not quite beautiful and presentable as an artwork. People appreciate printings that are manually produced for communicationand modeling counselling. This study therefore showcases the creative strength of photography as an art form. The study as well studied man and his environment as well as his challenges as he goes about his daily activities thesewere used to create the photographic illustrations. The images that were printed digitally were separated from the images that were printed with stencil printing process. The digital parts were printed first while the stencil parts were later processed and printed on space created for it on the digital hard copy to create the complete illustration.The study has proved the combination of stencil and digital photographic print process as a new character which will inspire a new wave of scholarship in picture communication and counselling in a borderless world.
