In Photoshop, for eg., it would essentially involve selecting the
people inthe photo with a freehand selection tool, then copying that
into a new layer, and then applying a stencil filter on that image,
and then merging the image into its lower layers.

Offhand, I have never seen a program to do this, as it would involve
separating parts of the image (in tis case, the people in the photos)
into new layers.

Not necessarily that difficult. I would make a new transparent layer and
freehand draw over the image underneath.
