Almost any photo can become a beautiful piece of art. A few guidelines for the best results:
Good light helps. Photos taken in natural light, near a window, or in golden-hour sunshine tend to produce especially rich results.
Clear subjects work best. If faces or key details are visible in the original photo, they'll be visible in the art. Busy or cluttered compositions may lose some detail.
Blurry or imperfect is fine. Phone photos, candid moments, and less-than-professional shots all work. The moment matters more than the megapixels.
Black and white photos work beautifully. You can use a palette that brings warm, limited color to black and white photos, or a palette that interprets tonal values as full color.
Pets, landscapes, and group photos all work. The default Signature style is especially versatile and produces strong results across every kind of photograph.
