How it works

  1. Upload your two photos

    Drop the target photo into EditThisPic — the scene you want to appear in. Then click '+ Add reference photo' below the prompt box to upload a photo of yourself. A selfie works perfectly. Both photos are required: the scene photo sets the context, and your reference photo tells the AI what you look like.

    Expect: JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB each. Front-facing or three-quarter angle selfies give the best facial accuracy.
  2. Describe where to add yourself

    Type a placement description: 'add me to the right side of the group, wearing similar casual clothing, matching the outdoor afternoon lighting.' Position, clothing match, and lighting details help the AI create a convincing composite.

    Tip: Describe clothing that fits the scene's style — 'wearing casual summer clothing matching the others' helps the AI adjust what you're wearing from the reference photo.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Add yourself to a group photo add me to the right end of the group, scale to match the others, casual clothing matching the outdoor lighting
    Add yourself to a family photo add me standing at the right end of the family lineup, wearing casual clothing similar to the others, matching the warm indoor lighting
    Add yourself to a travel or landmark photo add me to the foreground on the left side, casual tourist clothing, bright outdoor sunlight, natural shadow beneath me
    Add yourself to a work team photo add me at the left end of the office team, wearing a professional blazer matching the others, neutral office lighting, natural standing pose
    2 more prompts
    Add yourself to a party or event photo add me next to the person in the center, festive casual clothing, matching the warm party lighting, slightly leaning in like I'm in the photo
    Add yourself to a wedding photo add me to the right end of the wedding party, wearing a formal outfit matching the event attire, same outdoor lighting as the rest of the group
  3. Generate and review

    Check that your inserted likeness is the right scale compared to others in the photo, that lighting on your face matches the scene, and that the edges around you blend cleanly. Results come back in 30-45 seconds.

Quick answers

Do I need TWO photos for this?

Yes — adding yourself to a photo requires two photos. First, upload the target photo (the scene you want to appear in). Then click '+ Add reference photo' to upload a photo of yourself — a selfie works great. The AI uses your reference to identify your likeness and add you to the target photo with matched lighting and scale.

How do I add myself to a photo for free?

Upload the target photo to EditThisPic, click '+ Add reference photo' to upload your selfie, then describe where you want to appear: 'add me to the right side of the group.' The AI adds you in about 30 seconds. Completely free, no account needed, no signup. The free edit is a preview — purchased downloads are clean, full quality.

What kind of selfie should I use as a reference?

A front-facing or three-quarter angle selfie in good lighting works best. Make sure your face is clearly visible and you're reasonably large in the frame. The background of your selfie doesn't matter — the AI extracts only you from the reference. Avoid very dark, blurry, or heavily filtered selfies for best results.

Can I add myself to a photo I was never in?

Yes, that's exactly what this is for. Upload any photo you want to appear in, add a selfie as your reference, and describe your position. The AI composites you into the scene. Results look most convincing when you describe clothing that matches the scene's style.

Can I add myself to a group photo that already has people in it?

Yes. Group photos work very well. Describe where you want to stand relative to existing people: 'add me to the right end of the group' or 'add me next to the person in the blue shirt.' The AI matches your scale to the existing subjects and blends you into the scene.
