## What it does

Black and White Family Portrait turns a casual group photo into a timeless black and white studio portrait, with soft light and a dark backdrop.

## From our test

I tested a casual living-room photo of a father, mother and adult son. The result was a fine-art black and white portrait of the same three people on a dark gray backdrop in simple dark clothes, every face recognizable, in about two and a half minutes.

## Tips

- Group photos where every face is clear work best.
- Up to four or five people keeps every face recognizable.
- Casual clothes are restyled as simple dark clothing.

## Ideas for using it

- A framed family portrait without a studio session.
- Holiday card photos.
- A gift for parents or grandparents.

## How to use it

1. Upload your photo, or pick it from your library.
2. Press Generate. The look is already set up, so there is no prompt to write.
3. Your image is usually ready in under three minutes. Save it to your library or download it.
