Relight

Reposition and customize lighting on any image

Summary

The Relight Node lets you change the lighting of any image by repositioning, recoloring, and adjusting the intensity of the light source. Using an interactive 3D light controller and quick-position presets (Top, Front, Back, Bottom, Left, Right), you can dramatically transform the mood and depth of an image without regenerating it.

3. Position the Light:

   • Drag the light point on the interactive 3D controller to place the light source around your subject, or use the quick-position buttons (Top, Front, Back, Bottom, Left, Right) to snap to a preset angle. Click Reset to return to the default position.

4. Adjust Light Properties:

   • Set the Light Intensity, Color, and output settings to match the look you want.

5. Generate:

Sample Use Cases

Product Lighting for E-Commerce

Relight a product image with clean, even front lighting for a professional listing, or add dramatic side lighting to emphasize texture and shape.

Cinematic Mood Lighting

Transform a flat scene into a moody cinematic shot. Use a low-intensity warm light from the side for a golden-hour look, or a cool-toned top light for a thriller atmosphere.

Portrait Relighting

Shift the light source on a portrait to simulate classic studio setups—front lighting for beauty shots, side lighting for dramatic contrast, or back lighting for silhouette effects.
