How do I add a person to a family photo?
Upload your family photo to EditThisPic, then upload a clear reference photo of the person you want to add. Type 'add the person from the reference into this family photo, place them next to [name], match the lighting,' and click Generate. Result in 15-30 seconds.
Can I add a deceased family member?
Yes — this is one of the most meaningful uses. Upload the family photo, upload a clear photo of your loved one (any age, any time period), and place them with the family in the prompt. Many families do this for milestone events to remember loved ones as present.
What if the family member couldn't attend the event?
That's the most common use. Upload the family photo, upload a recent photo of the absent family member, and tell the AI to add them to the family. Whether they were sick, traveling, or simply couldn't make it, the AI blends them in naturally.
How good does the reference photo need to be?
Clearer is better, but the AI can work with older or lower-quality references. A solo photo with the person's face clearly visible works best. If you're adding a deceased loved one, even older photos work well.
Can I add a new baby or in-law to older family photos?
Yes. Upload the older family photo and a clear photo of the new family member. The AI handles age differences and modern lighting matching. For babies, mention how they should be held in your prompt.
Will the rest of the family stay the same?
Yes. The AI only adds the new person and adjusts the immediate area for blending. The rest of the family, the background, and the overall composition remain unchanged.
Will the lighting match the original photo?
Yes, when you ask the AI to match the lighting. The AI adjusts the added person's lighting, shadows, and color temperature to match the family photo. For dramatically different lighting, expect a refinement pass.
