The Orton Effect - https://capturelandscapes.com/orton-effect-explained/
It is a very high contrast technique and needed to used in diffused light or
on a bright overcast day. Pain in the neck to pull off but has a nice glow and
still enough sharpness. There should be an easy PS equivalent.
Soft,sharp and glow, Mike
A Photoshop technique - duplicating and blurring one layer, however a lens
blurs based on distance, hence the PS way is not quite the same as doing it
with combining multiple exposures.
Have you tried the PS Filter=>Blur=>Lens Blur, with a depth map mask?

This simple example emulates a wide aperture, shallow DoF lens on a shot with high DoF. The mask is a simple horizontal
gradient.
By playing with the Lens Blur settings and the mask, a wide range of effects
are possible.
It's also possible to just do Gaussian Blur and mask the layer, but I think the specialized Lens Blur tool is better for
this.
