How it works

Upload your primary photo

Drop your main image into EditThisPic. This could be a portrait, product, or any subject that will be composited with elements from the reference image. JPG, PNG, and WebP up to 7MB all work.

Expect: Standard composites: 25-35 seconds. Complex artistic composites: may need 2-3 refinements.
Add your reference photo

Click the reference image button and upload the second image. This provides elements, backgrounds, or subjects to composite with your main photo. Think of this as the source material for the composite elements.

Tip: Similar lighting direction in both photos makes for more realistic composites. The AI can adjust but matching lighting helps.
Describe the composite

Type your instruction: 'composite the person from photo one into the background from photo two with natural lighting' or 'create an artistic composite blending elements from both images.' Be specific about which elements to use from each photo and how they should combine.

Tip: Describe the final result you envision: 'the person should look like they're standing in the scene' helps the AI understand the goal.

Copy one of these to get started:

Person into background composite the person from photo one into the scenic background from photo two, matching the lighting and making them look naturally present in the scene

Fantasy scene composite create a fantasy composite with the person interacting with the magical elements, blend the lighting to look dramatic and cinematic
Try This →

Product lifestyle composite composite the product into the lifestyle scene, placed on the surface naturally with correct shadows and reflections
Try This →

Surreal blend composite create a surreal composite blending elements from both photos, with dreamlike transitions between the different scenes

Try This →

Seamless scene merge composite these two scenes into one continuous image, blending where they meet so seamlessly that it looks like a single photo
Try This →
Generate and refine

Tap generate and evaluate the composite. Check for natural-looking edges, consistent lighting, and realistic perspective. If areas need work, describe the issue: 'blend the edges more smoothly' or 'match the lighting direction better.'

Tip: Zoom in on transition areas to check for visible seams. If you spot issues, tap markers on those areas and regenerate.

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which elements to composite from each photo. Complex composite instructions can be interpreted multiple ways.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific element you want composited or on where it should be placed, then regenerate

Try This →

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS element' or 'place it HERE.' Use them when composite placement is ambiguous.

Edges look obvious or poorly blended

Why: The extraction edges are too sharp or the transition between composited elements and background is visible. This often happens with hair or fine details.

Try: composite with soft blended edges around the person, feather the transition to match the background naturally

Try This →

Tip: Adding 'soft blended edges' or 'feather the extraction' helps hide composite seams.

Lighting doesn't match between elements

Why: The source photos had different lighting directions or color temperatures. The AI tried to composite but the mismatch shows.

Try:

composite and adjust the lighting on the person to match the sun direction and warm color temperature from the background

Try This →

Tip: Describe the background lighting: 'match the sunset light from the left' or 'adjust for overcast lighting.'

Subject scale is wrong for the scene

Why: The AI couldn't accurately judge the size relationship between the composited subject and the background scene elements.

Try:

composite and scale the person to match the perspective - they should appear to be standing at the same distance as the trees visible

Try This →

Tip: Reference visible objects for scale: 'should be waist-height to the fence' or 'same size as the chair.'

Composite looks fake or artificial

Why: Multiple factors - mismatched shadows, wrong perspective, color differences, or missing environmental interaction create an unrealistic result.

Try:

composite more naturally with matching shadows on the ground, correct perspective for the viewpoint, and color grading that unifies both images

Try This →

Tip: Ask for specifics: 'add ground shadow,' 'match the haze level,' 'unify the color grade.'

Quick answers

Do I need to manually extract or mask subjects before compositing?

No. Just describe which elements to composite from each photo: 'composite the person into the background scene.' The AI automatically extracts subjects, matches lighting, and blends edges. Markers are only needed if you want to specify exact positioning or which element to use.

How do I composite two photos together for free?

Upload your main photo to EditThisPic, click the reference image button to add the second photo, then describe the composite: 'composite the person into the landscape with natural lighting.' The AI creates a seamless composite in 25-45 seconds. No account, no login, no watermarks.

Is there a free photo compositing tool without Photoshop?

Yes. EditThisPic creates photo composites without requiring any software or account. Upload both source images, describe the composite you want in plain English, and download your result. The AI handles extraction, lighting matching, and blending automatically.

Will the composite look realistic?

Yes, especially when source photos have similar lighting. The AI matches color temperature, adds appropriate shadows, and blends edges naturally. For best results, describe what should look natural: 'match the lighting direction' or 'add realistic shadows.'

Can I create artistic or fantasy composites?

Yes. Describe the creative effect you want: 'create a fantasy composite with magical lighting' or 'composite with a surreal dreamlike blend.' The AI can create artistic compositions, movie poster styles, and imaginative scenes - not just realistic placements.
