How can I transfer the style of one photo to another using AI?

Short answer: Use Nightjar's multi‑image style transfer. Upload a reference image (the look you love) and a target image, then ask the editor to match color grading, contrast, and texture. Refine in plain English.

Do it in Nightjar (step‑by‑step)

  1. Open Studio → choose Edit Images.
  2. Upload two images:
    • Image 1: reference style (color grading, contrast, grain)
    • Image 2: the photo to restyle (product or fashion)
  3. In Special requests, type: "Match the overall style of image 1 on image 2—color palette, contrast curve, white balance, and grain."
  4. If needed, add specifics: "preserve product brand colors," "keep skin tones natural," "gentle film grain only."
  5. Generate. Review at 100% zoom for color fidelity and texture.
  6. Refine in natural language: "slightly warmer midtones," "reduce highlights by 10%," "subtle vignette," "no teal in shadows."

Fashion and product recommendations

  • Products: pair with Listing/Clean or Luxury/Premium to keep the restyling commercial and realistic.
  • Fashion: combine style transfer with a photography style like Editorial/Magazine or Lifestyle for consistent lookbooks.
  • Protect brand colors: explicitly request "retain brand red/blue exactness."

Troubleshooting

  • Colors drift from brand palette: "lock packaging color accuracy; adjust environment only."
  • Skin tones look off: "maintain natural skin tones; apply grading to environment only."
  • Result feels over‑processed: "reduce effect intensity; minimal grain; neutral contrast."
