How to use

The source image shows a person in a suit beneath an overhead spotlight, with a nearly black background. Replace the entire {{PERSON_NAME_OR_IMAGE}} placeholder text in subject with a person’s name or description; when using a reference photo, upload it to the generation tool first, then set this value to “the person in the reference photo.” This demonstrates the lighting of the source work and does not guarantee identity or detail reproduction.
