[Rem Cosplay] [Tushan Susu cosplay] Retouching old photos, from the moonlight church to the seaside station

Dug out three sets of photo shoots taken previously, thinking about changing their scenes to re-release them. This time, trying Qwen's AI feature, the character's styling and actions from the original photos were retained, and only the background was replaced to make the overall atmosphere fit the character's original setting better, saving the trouble of resetting sets and location shoots. For cosers who often shoot anime/2D themes, this processing method can indeed expand a lot of creative space.

Let's talk about Rem's set first. The original photos were studio shots indoors; the blue hair, white dress, and wings behind already gave a strong anime feel. This time, I changed the background to a fantasy church under a deep blue moonlit night, adding arched windows, moonlight, thin mist, and falling white feathers. The processed effect was very surprising; the originally monotonous studio background turned into a Gothic space full of story. When generating the new background, the AI simulated the ambient light very well, and the subject's lighting blended extremely naturally with the environment, just like standing on stone steps under the moonlight. The indoor photos instantly gained a sense of a fantasy story, bringing out that quiet and mysterious atmosphere, and the texture of the clothes appeared more three-dimensional under the new light and shadow.

Tushan Susu's set had a similar operation. The original photos were taken in a willow grove; although verdant, it always felt like it lacked a bit of fantasy color. Through descriptive prompts, I changed the background to pink flowering trees, with red silk ribbons hanging from the branches, and ancient-style pavilions and small bridges faintly visible in the distance. This pink-toned fantasy realm matched the pink and white costume of the character extremely well, and even the props held in hand appeared exceptionally harmonious in this scene, maxing out the atmospheric feel. The overall picture looks more layered and is no longer restricted by real-world botanical landscapes, truly achieving the effect of a floral tree fantasy realm.

As for the last set of JK uniform photos, the original photos were taken in front of an artificial greenery landscape with a wooden ladder. I kept the character's blinking and hand-raising actions, and replaced the background with a seaside station. The picture not only features blue skies and the sea, but also generated a small blue train in the distance. The sense of support from the wooden ladder was retained, but the tone and lighting of the entire photo turned into a fresh, refreshing summer Japanese style. The picture looks very translucent, having the texture of a Japanese photobook.

This retouching mainly used the logic of image-to-image. I think a very crucial sentence in the prompt is: try to retain the facial features, expression, hairstyle, clothing, and action of the character in the original photo, replace only the background, and make the character's lighting naturally blend with the environment. Only by locking down the subject can AI avoid excessively redrawing the character when generating a new background. At the same time, it is also necessary to emphasize the transition of light and shadow, so as to guarantee the texture of live-action photography. After replacing the background, it feels like the old photos can be posted again. In the future, there's no need to struggle with locations when taking photos; just ask anywhere, and finding the right method can produce great photos.
