A practical guide for “combine separate photos into one group picture”
Consistency matters more than using the most glamorous photo of each person. Select inputs with a similar camera angle and enough resolution around the face; the model can handle different backgrounds because it rebuilds the scene.
A simple setting gives faces more visual priority. Start with a porch, studio, rooftop, or park before trying busy crowds, dramatic costumes, or extreme action poses.
Three scenes that fit this idea
Clean studio
Neutral light reduces distractions and makes a mixed set of source photos feel intentional.
Sunset rooftop
Warm directional light creates an occasion without needing formal clothes.
Neighborhood park
Natural framing suits friends and family across a range of ages.
Choose source photos the model can read
TogetherLens creates a new composition from the people you provide. It does not need matching backgrounds, but it does need clear facial information. Start with the original file when possible rather than a screenshot downloaded from a social network or messaging app.
- Crop close enough that facial details remain sharp.
- Use forward-facing or gently turned heads.
- Select images without strong colored light on skin.
- Keep each face fully visible and ask every living person for permission.
Generate in three deliberate steps
- Add two to five people.Use one clear portrait for each person and review every crop before continuing.
- Choose one or two vibes.Pick a scene that supports the story instead of competing with the faces.
- Inspect the preview.Check eyes, teeth, hands, clothing, jewelry, and meaningful background details. Trial previews are protected with a watermark.
What to avoid
- Fish-eye selfies
- Faces smaller than a thumbnail
- A mix of sunglasses and unobstructed eyes
Generated photos are creative images, not documentary evidence. Disclose that the result is AI-generated when context matters, and never use someone’s face to impersonate, embarrass, or mislead.
