What Makes a Picture Look Candid

To make your AI photo resemble a real-life candid shot (not staged or studio), pay attention to the following basics:

• Lighting: Use soft and natural lighting like golden hour, streetlights, or soft window light.
• Posture: unposed or relaxed movements like walking, laughter, or turning away.
• Backgrounds: actual surroundings like a café, street, backstage, or plain curtain.
• Imperfections: minimal motion blur, slanted focus, blowing hair, or sloped camera.
• These little things render the photo natural rather than too edited.
