"a question about magazine cover design"


  

          

its been bothering me for a while...

how does people magazine or other mags get their logo behind the head of a celeb in a picture?

i get that if the celeb is, say, standing in front of a white background, they just call up the logo in photoshop and put in in a layer behind the picture of the celeb, but if its a real photo with a real background then i dont get how this is done.

enlighten me, please.
