How does it work?

1

Upload your image

Start with a clear photo of yourself. We support JPG, JPEG, PNG, and other common image formats.

2

Adjust your lighting

Choose from lighting styles like studio, golden hour, neon, and natural. The AI applies your chosen lighting to your photo automatically, adjusting shadows, highlights, and color temperature.

3

Download your result

Your lighting-edited photo is ready to download in high resolution. Save it to your device and use it for professional profiles, headshots, or social media.

You can set the light to come from the left, right, above, below, or front.

You can choose warm (golden tones), cool (crisp blue tones), or neutral (balanced, natural light).
