Reshoots are expensive. AI Relight lets you re-illuminate a photo after the fact — turn a flat overhead-light selfie into golden-hour magic, or make a flat product shot look like it was taken in a studio with proper key + fill + rim lighting.

Lighting presets

  • Golden hour — warm directional sunlight, long soft shadows.
  • Studio — three-point lighting (key + fill + rim).
  • Overcast — soft even diffusion, no harsh shadows.
  • Moody — single directional light, deep shadows, dramatic.
  • Neon — saturated cyans + pinks from off-screen sources.
  • Fluorescent — that classic office / hospital greenish light.

Frequently asked questions

Will the skin tones still look like the same person?

Yes — the relighting model preserves identity. Skin tone, hair colour, and facial features stay; only the apparent light source changes.

Can I use my own custom lighting reference?

Premium users can upload a second photo as a 'lighting reference' — we'll re-light your photo to match that one's light direction and colour. Useful for matching lighting across a series.
