Luma

AI photo editor

Edit a photo by describing the change

The photo editor works from a written instruction rather than a set of sliders. Upload an image, describe what should be different, and the tool generates an edited version. Choose from the settings currently available and review the exact credit cost before creating. Results are saved to your private library.

Available models, settings and costs are shown inside the product before you create.

How it works

From input to video in three steps

  1. 01

    Upload the photo

    Add the image you want to change. Everything the edit works from is what is already in the picture.

  2. 02

    Say what should change

    Write the edit as an instruction. Naming one clear change is easier to interpret than a list of them.

  3. 03

    Review and create

    Confirm the exact credit cost shown on the action button, then submit.

Practical guidance

Edits people reach for most

A prompt-driven edit is at its best when the instruction names one thing to change and leaves the rest of the photo alone.

Change the background

Put the same subject somewhere else without cutting them out by hand.

Change the season or light

Move a photo to a different time of year or time of day while the subject stays put.

Change what someone is wearing

Describe the clothing you want to see and keep the rest of the shot as it was.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How do I tell the editor what to change?

Write the change as a short instruction in the prompt box, for example a new background or a different time of day.

Does the whole photo get regenerated?

The instruction is what guides the edit. Naming a single clear change keeps the result closer to your original photo.

Can I edit a photo I generated in Luma?

Yes. Images in your library can be edited, along with photos you upload.

When do I see the credit cost?

Once the photo is added and settings are chosen, the exact credit cost appears on the action button before you submit.

Start with the idea you have now

Write the scene or add your source image. You will see the available controls and exact credit cost before creating.
