Real-Looking Light
Lights are multiplied into the photo, so they pick up the colours they hit. Dim the scene with Darkness and add Bloom for a dreamy glow.

Glow, Spotlight, Sun flare, Light leak and Bokeh — plus one-click scenes previewed on your own photo.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this real AI relighting?
- Not AI, but more than an overlay: each light is multiplied into your photo, so it takes on the colour of whatever it hits, and the Darkness control dims the scene so lights read as real light sources. It does not re-render 3D shadows, so treat it as a creative relight rather than a photoreal one.
- Is my photo uploaded to a server?
- No. Everything runs entirely in your browser. Your photo never leaves your device.
- Can I add more than one light?
- Yes — in Edit view click anywhere on your photo to add a light, or add a Glow, Spotlight, Sun flare, Light leak or Bokeh from the panel. Each has its own colour, size, intensity and haze.
- Can I create a blue, red, or other colored light effect?
- Yes — pick any color with the color picker or one of the built-in swatches. Blue, red, green, gold, pink and white are one click away, or choose a custom color for anything else.
- Do I need Photoshop or an app to add light effects?
- No. This tool runs entirely in your web browser — no Photoshop, no app to download or install, and no account. It works the same on desktop and mobile.
- Can I add the light effect to just the background of my photo?
- Yes — each light can be dragged anywhere on the photo, including behind or around your subject, so you can light up just the background while leaving the rest untouched.
- What are the scenes?
- Scenes are one-click lighting setups — Golden hour, Neon night, Spotlight, Moonlight, Cyberpunk, Dreamy, Sunset leak and Party. Each tile previews the look on your own photo, and you can then move or restyle every light.
- Does the download have a watermark?
- No watermark, ever. The downloaded image is clean and ready to use.
