Relight: Photo Lighting

One photo. More ways to light it.

Add soft light to a portrait, find a new mood for a still life, or let light move across your image. Relight makes photo lighting a hands-on creative process: see the effect, refine it, and keep the light you love.

START WITH A LOOK
Explore 11 lighting looks organized by purpose: essentials, portraits, mood and light patterns. From Softbox, Window and Golden to Duotone, Blinds and Neon, find a starting point for your photo. Every look can be refined.

MAKE EVERY LIGHT YOUR OWN
Move light points directly on your photo. Adjust brightness, color, reach and distance. Combine up to four lights with ambient illumination. Hold to see the original; release to return to your edit.

STILL PHOTO. MOVING LIGHT.
Explore 5 film styles, from a gradual reveal to alternating lights and moving window light. Adjust the movement, then preview and export a four- or six-second looping light film. Light changes the atmosphere; it does not animate the subject into new actions.

KEEP THE DETAILS
Crop and rotate before editing. Zoom in to inspect your result. Keep saved photos and films in your library, ready to view and share. High-resolution photo export reaches up to 4096 pixels on the long edge, limited by your source image, without upscaling.

YOUR PHOTOS STAY YOURS
No account required. Photo processing happens on your device without uploading your images or buying generation credits. Made for iPhone and iPad, in English and Simplified Chinese.

START FREE. UNLOCK ONCE.
Use Softbox and single-light editing for free, with photo exports up to 1200 pixels on the long edge. Preview other looks, multiple lights and films before a one-time purchase unlocks their export. The features included in this purchase require no renewal or per-use fees. Previous paid-app customers can restore complete Studio access without buying again.

Start with a sharp, evenly lit portrait or still life. Results depend on the lighting and detail in your source photo. Relight cannot recover hidden detail or fully remove strong shadows already in an image.
