How to Add a Person to a Photo with AI

1

Upload Two Images

Upload two images: the background photo (the scene you want the person placed into) and a photo of the person you want to add. The AI automatically detects which image is the background and which contains the person — no need to label them. For the best results, use a clear photo of the person where their full body or upper body is visible, and a background scene with space where the person can naturally fit.

Describe Placement (Optional)

Describe Placement (Optional)

Optionally tell the AI exactly where and how you want the person positioned. For example: 'Standing on the left side next to the tree', 'Sitting on the sofa smiling', or 'Standing in the back row of the group'. If you leave this blank, the AI will automatically choose a natural-looking placement. You can also describe an action or pose if you want the person doing something specific in the scene.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about adding a person to a photo with AI

Our AI uses advanced image understanding to analyze both uploaded images. It automatically identifies which image contains the person and which is the background scene. It then extracts the person — preserving their exact face, identity, skin tone, clothing, and proportions — and composites them into the background. The AI matches the lighting direction, color temperature, shadow angles, and camera perspective so the person looks naturally present in the scene, not pasted in.

Yes! Adding a person to a photo is free to try. New users get free credits upon signing up — no credit card required. Each generation costs 4 credits. You can create several merged photos at no cost to find the most natural-looking result before considering any paid plan.

For the person photo: use a clear, well-lit image where the person is fully visible (full body works best for standing scenes, waist-up for seated scenes). Avoid heavy cropping or photos where the person is partially hidden. For the background: choose a scene with enough space where a person could naturally stand or sit. The more similar the lighting conditions between both photos (both indoor, both outdoor daylight, etc.), the more realistic the final result will look.

Yes — this is one of the most meaningful uses of this tool. Many people use it to add a deceased family member to wedding photos, holiday gatherings, graduation pictures, or family portraits. The AI preserves the person's exact appearance from their photo and places them naturally into the scene. It's a touching way to include someone who couldn't be there in spirit-filled memories.

Yes! Use the optional 'Placement & Action' field to describe exactly where you want the person. For example: 'Standing on the left', 'Sitting at the table in the middle', 'Standing behind the bride and groom', or 'Walking towards the camera on the right side'. If you leave it blank, the AI will choose a natural position automatically. You can generate multiple variations with different placement descriptions to find the perfect composition.

Absolutely. The AI is specifically instructed to preserve the person's exact facial features, skin tone, hair style, clothing, and body proportions. It does not alter their appearance — only adapts the lighting and shadows to match the background scene. The result maintains the person's real identity and recognizable features.

The tool is designed to add one person at a time for the best quality results. To add multiple people, you can run the tool multiple times — add the first person, then use the merged result as the new background and add the second person. This step-by-step approach gives you more control over each person's placement and produces more natural-looking results.

The AI produces highly realistic results by matching lighting direction, color temperature, shadow placement, scale, and perspective between the person and the background. For the best results, use photos with similar lighting conditions (both indoor or both outdoor). The output is designed to look like a single authentic photograph — not a Photoshop collage. Generate multiple variations to find the most natural-looking composition.

We accept JPG, JPEG, PNG, and WEBP images up to 10MB each. You need to upload exactly two images — the background scene and the person photo. The output is available in JPG, PNG, or WEBP format at high resolution, ready for printing, social media, or digital use.

Yes! Adding a missing person to a group photo is one of the most popular uses. Upload the group photo as the background and the missing person's individual photo. Use the placement field to specify where they should stand — for example, 'Standing between John and Sarah on the right side' or 'Standing in the back row'. The AI will scale the person appropriately and match the group's lighting for a natural result.
