Make room for everyone you love.

What if we have never taken a family photo?

You can begin with separate photographs. A parent’s phone picture, a grandparent’s portrait and a child’s recent photo can guide different participants in the same imagined scene. The resulting portrait is AI-created; it expresses a connection rather than recording a gathering that happened.

First decide who belongs in this particular frame. A smaller group may work best for a close, intimate crop, while a multigeneration portrait needs enough space to distinguish adults and children. Each template shows its participant capacity before you start.

Prepare people, not a folder of anonymous files

Keep each person’s references together on their own participant card. An extra photograph of the same person is an additional reference, not another member of the group. This matters when relatives look alike or when adults and children have similar hairstyles.

• Choose a clear face photo for each participant, with permission to use it.
• For a full-length group, add body references where helpful to guide proportions.
• Check which people and pets are assigned before generating.
• Use a group outfit as the default, then adjust individual clothing if needed.

A portrait that feels like your family

A shared palette can connect the group without dressing everyone identically. Consider a quiet living room, a garden or a neutral studio rather than choosing a background just because it looks impressive. The setting should support the people.

Review the finished portrait person by person. Check faces, adult-and-child proportions, hands, pets and clothing. One revision can combine the corrections you describe. Download both versions you want to keep; My Studio provides temporary access rather than permanent archival storage.
