Take for example the picture in the link...say in its original form her face looked the same but there were some other people standing behind her, which you want to black out. Here's the remedy.
Select, copy and paste the entire picture so you have two identical layers.
Now working on the layer (not background) go to the top MENU bar than to ENHANCE than to LIGHTING than to LEVELS. (this may differ slightly depending on your version).
Slide the left arrow to the right until you have blackened in the background to your satisfaction. Do not worry about the black face, just get the background as dark as you need it. Click OKAY.
Now, select the ERASER tool and at first set the OPACITY to 100%. Erase the black layer off the girls face revealing the lighter color underneath. Next switch the OPACITY to 50% and blend the edges so there is no harsh delineation.
In the end you have the lightness in the face from the bottom layer (background) and the blackness in the background from the layer you created. You blend them together by erasing the 2nd layer revealing the more of the bottom lighter layer. Lastly FLATTEN the two LAYERS and SAVE.
As for a picture in a picture...that is merely copy, cut, paste on to image...rotate, re-size, blend to fit image ...hue, lighting, contrast adjustments to match image...THEN Flatten the two layers.

Lucky3 is the new ruling expert on Photoshop!
For a very easy fix, try just adjusting the contrast with the slider under Enhance>Adjust Lighting>Brightness/Contrast. That might be all you need to get what you want. If not, follow Lucky3's step-by-step directions.
Or... Convert to B&W or sepia (with a sepia filter) and then posterize, trying only 3 or 4 levels. It's not the same, but similar.

Looks like a sepia tone photo.
Take the photo outside at night with a flash?

For that they used a plug in, you need to load it.
as for putting more than one photo in with another, you need to copy the photo and make it as layers.

I fairly like this ALOT. This image might additionally be acceptable for a stop smoking advert. remember to turn it into one! (: perhaps soften the seem of the smoke somewhat. even though it could artwork the two way.
