📷 Lighting

  • Natural daylight is best - stand near a window
  • Avoid harsh shadows or direct sunlight on face
  • Even, soft lighting creates the best character likenesses

🎯 Face Position

  • Face the camera directly for best results
  • Slight angles are OK, but extreme profiles don't work well
  • Make sure both eyes are clearly visible

😊 Expression

  • Use photos with natural expressions
  • Smiling or neutral faces work best
  • Closed eyes or extreme expressions may not translate well

🖼️ Resolution

  • Use photos that are at least 500x500 pixels
  • Higher resolution = better detail capture
  • Avoid heavily compressed or blurry images

  • Sunglasses or hats covering the face
