Tips for Getting Better AI Photo Editing Results

Use a clear original photograph

A well-lit photo with a clearly visible face can give the image-editing model more useful visual information.

Choose a suitable reference image

Avoid photographs where the face is heavily blurred, hidden, or extremely small if preserving facial details is important.

Keep the identity instructions

Do not remove the instructions about preserving facial structure, natural skin tone, hairstyle, and identity. They communicate the most important requirement of this particular edit.

Try a follow-up adjustment

If the result is too dark, ask ChatGPT to make the lighting slightly brighter while maintaining the same cinematic style and facial identity.

If the background is too distracting, ask for a cleaner, darker studio background without changing the person.

Remember that results can vary

AI image editing does not guarantee perfect identity preservation. Always review the generated image and check facial details before using it as a professional profile picture.
