Add a Person to a Photo With AI
To add a person to a photo, upload two pictures on the Create photo page: the scene and the person who should join it. The AI draws that person into the scene again, in its light.

A cut-and-paste job betrays itself with a hard edge, a missing shadow or light from the wrong side. Nothing is traced by hand here: the model builds a new frame where the newcomer, or an object, shares the light of the background.
Why a pasted person stands out
The eye spots a mismatch before it can name it. Usually the light direction, the color temperature or the shadow is off. A friend shot in cool daylight and dropped into a warm sunset looks fake at once, however clean the outline.
How the insert gets rebuilt
Attach the scene plus the photo of the person, then say who goes where: put the man from the second photo at the left end of the group, on the sand. A model like NanoBanana 2.1 redraws him with a shadow falling the right way. A missing friend can join a group photo the same way.
Ready scenes instead of your own background
No backdrop of your own? The grid holds finished settings that wait for you. Pet Love Photo Strip takes a picture of you and one of your pet and frames you together. Antarctic Penguin Moment seats you on a snowy rock in the ice, and Winter Bullfinch Portrait lands a bird on your gloved hand.
Where it struggles
Camera angle matters most. Someone shot from above sits badly in a frame taken at eye level, and a tiny figure enlarged to full height loses detail. Pick sources taken from a similar height and distance, and expect a second try now and then.

FAQ
Is this different from a collage?
A collage keeps pictures side by side inside one frame. Here the added person ends up inside the scene itself, on the same ground and under the same sun as everyone else.
Do I have to cut the person out myself?
No outline to trace and no mask to paint. Attach the original pictures as they are and describe the result; the model works out what belongs to the person.
Can I add someone who missed the group photo?
Yes, if they agree to it. A sharp picture of them taken in similar light helps most. Write where they should stand, say next to the woman in the red coat, and look the faces over before you share the result.
Can I add someone to a photo online for free?
