Best photos to upload
AI generation works better when the input photo clearly shows your face. Avoid heavy filters, sunglasses, motion blur, extreme angles, and photos where the face is too small.
- Clear face
- Good lighting
- No sunglasses
- No heavy filters

Why source quality matters
The AI can improve styling, clothing, lighting, and background, but it still needs enough facial information to preserve your identity and avoid generic-looking results.
