Step by Step
Open the two photos you want to merge in the photo bin.
To begin the merge process go to Enhance -- Photomerge -- Group Shot.

Decide which image will be your base image. Drag your base image into the Final window. Then click the other photo to choose it as the Source photo.

Select the Area to Swap
Choose the pencil tool and move the slider to increase the size of the pencil. In the source photo draw on the part of the face you want swapped.

If you color too much you can always use the eraser tool to remove some of the pencil lines.

Align the Photos
If your photos aren't matching up correctly try aligning them. Select Advanced Options -- Alignment Tool.
To get a correct alignment you want to use similar areas of the photo. In the source image move the targets to 3 key areas. In this case I chose the tip of each ear and his chin.

Repeat the process in the final photo on the right. Move the targets to the same areas of the face. Then click align photos.

Once your photos are aligned correctly you can use the Pencil Tool to draw on the face in the source photo you want to swap. It's easiest if you just swap the facial features rather than the entire head.
When you are happy with the swap click done.
Crop Your Photo
Once you have finalized your swap you will notice that the edges of the photo may need to be trimmed out. It is time to crop your photo.
Select the Crop tool. Make sure the ratio is set to 4x6.
Drag the Crop tool across your image to select the best possible photo.
When you are happy with how your photo looks, click on the green tick or checkmark to apply your changes.
