How it works

Upload before and after photos

Drop your pre-renovation and post-renovation photos into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Works with kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, room makeovers, exterior work—any home improvement project needing professional documentation.

Expect: Simple lighting matching: 25-30 seconds. Complex multi-room projects or significant angle differences: may need refinement.
Describe the portfolio format

Type 'create before-after with matched lighting for renovation portfolio' or 'combine with consistent appearance, show transformation clearly.' The AI normalizes lighting differences caused by different times of day, work in progress, or photo quality variations—critical for professional portfolio presentation.

Tip: Specify 'before on left, after on right' for standard portfolio format that clients immediately understand.

Copy one of these to get started:

Verify transformation visibility

Check that renovations are clearly visible—new cabinets, updated fixtures, fresh paint, improved layout. Verify lighting consistency doesn't hide the improvements you made. The before-after should make the transformation obvious at a glance.
Add project details if needed

If creating portfolio or marketing materials, include project details: 'add label showing kitchen renovation, $25K, 3 weeks' or 'include before-after with project scope description.' Context helps potential clients understand scope and timeline.

Tip: For marketing, add subtle branding—company logo in corner shows professionalism without being intrusive.

If something looks off

Lighting match made renovations less visible or impressive

Why: Over-normalization can reduce the visual impact of improvements if it removes natural differences in finish quality.

Try: match lighting enough for consistency but preserve the visual impact of new finishes, fixtures, and improvements

Try This →

Tip: Goal is professional consistency, not identical photos—renovations should still look dramatically better.

Different camera angles make rooms look different sizes

Why: Wide-angle vs normal lens, or different camera heights, change room proportions in photos.

Try: adjust perspective to match room proportions between before and after, keep spatial accuracy

Try This →

Tip: Small angle differences can be corrected. Large changes (different lens types) may need retaking photos.

Color normalization changed paint or finish colors inaccurately

Why: Color matching can shift hues of new paint, cabinets, or finishes away from their actual appearance.

Try: match overall lighting but preserve accurate colors of paint, cabinets, countertops, and finishes

Try This →

Tip: Material colors must be accurate—clients expect what they see in photos to match what they get.

Side-by-side layout cropped out important renovation details

Why: Combining two photos may have cropped edges where visible improvements were made.

Try: ensure all renovation work is visible in the frame, do not crop out improvements at edges

Try This →

Tip: Show the full scope of work—if new cabinets extend to edges, make sure they're visible.

Before photo shows construction mess distracting from comparison

Why: Demolition debris, tools, or work-in-progress clutter makes before photo look too chaotic.

Try: clean up construction debris and clutter in before photo while showing the original condition accurately

Try This →

Tip: Before photos should show original state clearly—remove temporary construction mess but keep the dated features you replaced.

Portfolio photos missing project context or scope

Why: Without details, potential clients can't gauge budget, timeline, or scope relevant to their needs.

Try: add project labels showing room type, approximate budget range, and completion timeline

Try This →

Tip: Context helps clients self-qualify—'$15K kitchen, 2 weeks' immediately tells them if you're in their range.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark anything to create renovation before-after photos?

No! Just describe what you want: 'create before-after with matched lighting' or 'combine with consistent appearance for portfolio.' The AI handles lighting normalization, alignment, and side-by-side layout automatically. Markers are only needed if you want to adjust specific areas after seeing the result—like enhancing visibility of one renovation detail.

Why do renovation photos need consistent lighting?

Inconsistent lighting makes it unclear how much is real improvement vs. just better photography. Before photos often have poor lighting (construction phase, old photos), while after photos show finished spaces in best light. Matching them proves your work made the difference, not just better lighting. Professional portfolio documentation with consistent lighting wins more contracts because it shows credible transformations.

Can this fix before photos taken during construction?

Yes. Construction-phase photos often have work lights, debris, and poor conditions. The AI can normalize lighting to match finished photos while preserving the 'before' state that shows what you improved. It removes lighting and quality differences but keeps the dated fixtures, old finishes, and original conditions visible—showing exactly what you transformed.

How do I create consistent before-afters for my entire portfolio?

Use the exact same prompt for all renovation projects: 'create before-after with matched lighting, before left and after right, professional portfolio format.' This gives every project the same layout and quality—making your portfolio look intentional and professional. Consistency across projects signals attention to detail and professional standards.

Should I add project details to portfolio before-afters?

Yes. Include room type, approximate budget, and timeline. 'Master Bath Remodel - $18K - 3 weeks' helps potential clients immediately know if you work in their budget range and timeline expectations. This pre-qualifies leads and sets realistic expectations. Add details by including them in your prompt: 'add project details as labels.'
