How Relight Portrait Works

Relight Portrait uses AI to re-estimate and replace the lighting in a portrait photo. The AI builds a 3D understanding of the face from the 2D image, then renders new light and shadow patterns based on your chosen direction, intensity, and color temperature. You control 8 light positions (front, left, right, back, and diagonals), three intensity levels (soft, dramatic, hard), and warm-to-cool color temperature. Photographers use Relight to rescue poorly lit portraits and create studio-quality results from phone selfies. Fashion content creators achieve dramatic editorial lighting without studio equipment. Headshot photographers offer lighting variations to clients without reshooting. The tool effectively puts a full studio lighting rig at your fingertips. Upload a clear portrait where the face has some visible dimension -- completely flat or overexposed photos give the AI less depth information to work with. Front-facing portraits with a neutral expression respond best to dramatic relighting. Try side lighting for editorial and moody portraits, and front lighting with warm color temperature for professional headshots.

Can I use Relight Portrait outputs commercially?
Yes. All outputs generated on FairStack include a commercial-use license. You can use them in client work, products, marketing materials, social media, and any other commercial context.
What quality and format does Relight Portrait output?
Output images are PNG format at up to 1024x1024 resolution. The AI generates physically plausible light and shadow patterns, including specular highlights on skin and realistic shadow falloff. The result looks like natural studio lighting, not a filter overlay.
Can I use relit portraits for professional headshots and portfolios?
Yes. All FairStack outputs include a commercial-use license. Relit portraits are commonly used for professional headshots, modeling portfolios, LinkedIn photos, speaker pages, and brand ambassador content.
Can I batch-relight portraits with the same lighting setup?
The web app processes one portrait at a time. For batch relighting with consistent settings, use the FairStack API to submit multiple portraits with the same light direction, intensity, and color temperature. Each relight costs $0.03.
