Photos with good lighting and clear subjects produce the best results for photo to illustration conversion. The AI is especially skilled at transforming faces into adorable storybook-style illustrations with simple, expressive features.

How is this different from a photo filter?

Unlike simple filters that just adjust colors or add effects, our photo to illustration AI completely reimagines your photos with hand-drawn colored pencil styles. This photo to illustration technology recreates the image with visible pencil strokes, soft pastel colors, and the warm aesthetic of children's book art. The result looks like it was drawn by a professional illustrator.

Can I use these illustrations commercially?

Yes! All illustrations you generate are yours to use for personal and commercial purposes. This includes using them for greeting cards, prints, social media content, book illustrations, and merchandise. Please refer to our Terms of Service for complete usage rights.

How long does generation take?

Photo to illustration generation typically takes 30-60 seconds depending on the complexity of your image and the resolution you choose. Our photo to illustration AI carefully analyzes your image and recreates it with authentic colored pencil textures and storybook-style proportions.

What resolution should I choose?

Choose 1080P (50 credits) for social media and digital sharing. Select 2K (60 credits) for print-quality illustrations suitable for cards and small prints. Use 4K (80 credits) for professional prints and high-quality merchandise where maximum detail matters.
