How it works

  1. Upload your main group photo

    Drop in the group photo you want to complete — usually the one with the better angle, lighting, or the most people already in it. This becomes the base scene the second group joins.

    Expect: A photo with open space at the edge where the missing people can stand makes a first attempt easier; a tightly packed group photo may need a focused refinement.
  2. Add the second group photo as a reference

    Click '+ Add reference image' and upload the other group photo — the one with the photographer who's missing, or the half of the family or team that isn't in the main shot.

    Tip: If the two photos were taken minutes apart in similar light, the merge needs far less correction than photos from different days.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Add the photographer into the group add this person from the reference photo standing at the end of the group, matching the pose and lighting of everyone else
    Merge two halves of a split family photo combine both groups into one family photo, with the people from photo two standing to the right of the people in photo one, matched lighting throughout
    Unite two halves of a team photo add everyone from the reference photo into the empty space on the right of the main photo, same scale and lighting as the existing team
    Complete a reunion where two shots were taken combine both group photos into one, keeping everyone's original position relative to each other, blending the background so it looks continuous

    Add missing coworkers to an office photo add the people from photo two standing behind the group in photo one, same neutral office lighting
    Merge two rows of a formal group portrait combine both photos into one formal group portrait, front row from photo one and back row from the reference photo, even studio lighting across everyone
  3. Describe how to merge the two groups

    Type your instruction: 'add everyone from photo two standing to the right of the group in photo one' or 'combine both halves of the team into one full team photo.' Name who goes where when it matters.

    Tip: For teams or families, saying 'keep everyone's original order' helps the AI preserve any logical arrangement, like tallest to shortest.

  4. Review and refine

    Check that everyone is present, the scale between the two groups matches, and the lighting looks consistent across the whole photo. If one person looks off, describe the fix or tap a marker on that spot.

    Tip: Large merges — 8+ people total — sometimes need one retry to get everyone's scale right in a single pass.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark where the missing people should go?

No. Describe where they should stand — 'add them to the right of the existing group' or 'behind the front row' — and the AI places them there. Tap markers are only for pointing at one specific spot to refine afterward.

How do I combine two group photos into one for free?

Upload the group photo you want to complete, add the second group photo as a reference image, then describe how to merge them — for example, 'add everyone from photo two on the right side.' The AI matches lighting and scale. Free, no account needed.

Can I add the photographer into the group photo?

Yes, this is one of the most common uses. Upload the group shot, add a clear reference photo of the photographer, and describe where they should stand — usually at one end of the group works best.

How many people can I combine into one group photo?

There's no hard limit, but very large combined groups — more than around ten people total — sometimes need a retry or a request for multiple rows to keep everyone clearly visible and correctly scaled.

What if the two group photos were taken on different days?

That's fine — describe how you want the lighting matched, like 'match everyone to the warm outdoor light in photo one.' The AI adjusts color and lighting across the combined photo so it reads as one shot.
