Tools for Announcement Photo Editing

How to Edit Photos for Your Pregnancy Announcement

  1. Choose your announcement photo

    Select a photo with genuine emotion - holding the test, showing the bump, revealing to family. The expressions matter more than the setting. Technical issues like background and lighting can be fixed.

    Background replacement: 25-30 seconds. Full announcement polish: 40-50 seconds.
    Candid reaction shots often make the best announcements - authentic joy beats posed perfection.
  2. Upload and describe your vision

    Drop your photo into EditThisPic and describe the look you want: 'replace the messy living room background with soft neutral backdrop, warm up the lighting for a soft glow, keep our excited expressions exactly as they are.'

    Combine all your edits in one prompt for consistent results across the whole image.
  3. Review for authenticity

    Check that the edited photo still captures the real emotion of the moment. Your expressions should be unchanged. The background and lighting should enhance, not distract from, your joy.

  4. Create versions and share

    Download your polished announcement. Consider creating versions for different uses - one for Instagram, one for the family group chat, one to print and frame. The same base photo can work for all.

    Create a vertical crop for Instagram Stories and square for the grid from the same edited photo.

When Things Go Wrong

Expressions or faces look different

Why: Face enhancement may have changed features along with lighting.

Try: Start fresh with: replace background only, keep our faces and expressions 100% unchanged

Fix background first, then evaluate if faces need any enhancement.

New background looks fake or doesn't match lighting

Why: Background lighting may not match the original lighting direction on your faces.

Try: replace background with [type] that has soft diffused light matching our faces, seamless blend

Soft, neutral backgrounds blend most naturally with any lighting condition.

Pregnancy test or ultrasound is less visible now

Why: Overall changes may have affected the small important details.

Try: keep the pregnancy test/ultrasound clearly visible and sharp, only change the background and lighting around it

Mention the important prop specifically to ensure it's preserved.

Photo looks over-processed or filtered

Why: Multiple enhancements may have created an obviously edited look.

Try: Start fresh with one change only: blur background softly, keep everything else natural

Less is often more for announcements - authenticity matters more than perfection.

AI changed the wrong area

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

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

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