Meet the five effects

Choose a style for the mood you want: bold, colorful, or a little spooky.

X-Ray

X-Ray adds a blue glow and imagined skeletal details for a scan-inspired look. A jumping pose or raised arms can make the result especially playful.

Try a photo with a clear pose and enough room around your subject to keep their arms and legs in the frame.

Thermal

Thermal turns familiar colors into bright yellows, oranges, reds, and blues. It gives an everyday portrait a vivid heat-map look.

Try a selfie or a photo with a simple background to see the colors stand out.

Night Vision

Night Vision adds a green glow and a grainy, after-dark feel. It can give a pet photo or an outdoor shot a fun spy-movie mood.

You can start with a clear daytime photo. The effect creates the night-vision look for you.

Neon

Neon brings glowing outlines and electric color to your subject and surroundings. Pink, green, and blue details give the photo a lively, illustrated feel.

Try a dancing pose or a scene with interesting shapes to explore the glowing lines.

Ghost Vision

Ghost Vision gives your subject a pale glow and a ghostly, otherworldly appearance. An ordinary portrait can suddenly feel like a scene from a spooky story.

Try an outdoor portrait or a photo with space around your subject for an atmospheric look.
