How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Drop your most professional photo into EditThisPic. Award photos appear in ceremony programs, websites, and promotional materials - you want to look accomplished and credible. This represents your professional achievement.

    Expect: Background replacement: 25-30 seconds. Enhancement for accomplished look: may need one refinement.
  2. Describe award-worthy appearance

    Type what award materials need: 'replace background with professional neutral backdrop, enhance for accomplished professional appearance' or 'professional award recipient look, credible and polished.' Awards celebrate achievement - your photo should reflect that. No marking required.

    Tip: Use words like 'accomplished,' 'distinguished,' 'professional excellence' to signal the elevated tone

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Professional accomplishment replace background with professional neutral backdrop, enhance for accomplished professional appearance, award recipient quality
    Distinguished professional enhance for distinguished professional appearance, polished and accomplished, clean formal background for award materials
    Casual to award-worthy replace casual background with formal neutral setting, enhance lighting for professional excellence, accomplished appearance
    Executive polish enhance for executive-level professional polish, confident and accomplished, neutral background for award ceremony
    3 more prompts
    Formal recognition replace with formal gray backdrop, professional lighting for industry recognition, distinguished appearance
    Event photo to award photo remove event background, replace with clean professional backdrop, enhance for award recipient presentation
    LinkedIn to award materials adjust LinkedIn photo for award ceremony, more polished and accomplished appearance, professional distinction
  3. Review for professional distinction

    Check that you look like someone worthy of recognition. Background should be clean and professional. Appearance should convey accomplishment without being stuffy. The photo should represent your best professional self.

  4. Refine with markers if needed

    If edges need cleanup or the polish isn't quite at award level, tap markers on specific areas and regenerate. Most award photos work without markers - they're optional for precision.

    Tip: Imagine this photo on stage during the award ceremony - does it represent your achievement well?

If something looks off

Photo doesn't look polished enough for award recognition

Why: The enhancement isn't reaching the elevated level award ceremonies demand.

Try: enhance for distinguished professional excellence, polished award recipient appearance, accomplished and credible

Tip: Use explicit language about recognition: 'award ceremony quality,' 'distinguished professional.'

Looks too stiff or formal, lost personality

Why: Over-formalization can make you look unapproachable or artificial.

Try: professional and accomplished appearance while maintaining natural warmth, award-worthy but authentic

Tip: 'Authentic' and 'natural warmth' prevent over-formalization while staying polished.

Background doesn't match the prestige of the award

Why: Background choice or quality doesn't convey the significance of the recognition.

Try: replace with formal distinguished backdrop, professional gray suited for prestigious industry recognition

Tip: Medium to dark gray conveys more prestige than light or casual backgrounds.

Lighting looks too casual or flat

Why: Lighting doesn't have the polish award photos should project.

Try: enhance lighting for professional distinction, polished award ceremony appearance, dimensional and sophisticated
AI changed the wrong area or something unexpected

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from description alone.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific area you want changed, then regenerate with the same prompt

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS one specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Expression doesn't match the significance of the award

Why: Your expression may be too casual or not confident enough for recognition.

Try: Start with a photo that has a confident, accomplished expression - it's hard to create from casual photos

Tip: Choose source photos with appropriate gravitas - editing can enhance but not create.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark areas before describing changes for award nomination photos?

No! Just describe what award materials need: 'replace background with professional neutral backdrop' or 'enhance for distinguished professional appearance.' The AI understands award and recognition contexts without marking. Only use markers if edges need refinement.

How do I fix a photo for industry award nomination quickly?

Upload your most professional photo and describe what awards demand: 'replace background with formal backdrop, accomplished professional appearance, award recipient quality.' Most award photos are ready in 25-30 seconds. This represents your achievement - make it polished and distinguished.

What makes a good award nomination photo?

Professional and accomplished appearance. Clean neutral background that conveys prestige. Confident expression that reflects your achievement. Should look distinguished but not stuffy. The photo represents both you and the significance of the recognition. Avoid overly casual looks or stiff corporate poses.

Can I use a LinkedIn photo for award materials?

LinkedIn photos can be good starting points but often need enhancement for award contexts. They may be too casual or friendly for the prestige of industry recognition. You'll likely want to adjust the background to be more formal and enhance the overall polish to match the significance of the award.

What if the award is for my company, not me personally?

Company award photos still represent you as the face of that achievement. Use professional but not overly personal approaches. Focus on credibility and accomplishment rather than warmth. The photo should convey that your company is worthy of recognition.
