Craft Your Masterpiece in 3 Effortless Steps

  1. Select your preferred grad photo - Choose a sharp, well-lit image clearly showing their face
  2. Pick an artistic treatment - Explore choices like 'Cinematic', 'Digital Art', or 'Fantasy Illustration'
  3. Add personalized elements - Note details like "holding diploma with confident smile" or "graduation cap angled playfully"

That's all! Within moments, you'll receive multiple artistic interpretations. For optimal outcomes, upload 2-3 photos showing different facial angles.
