How Do I Change a Photo to Portrait Mode?

Published in Photo Editing 3 mins read

To change or adjust the Portrait Mode effect on a photo that was taken using a device capable of capturing Portrait Mode depth information, follow these straightforward steps. This process allows you to modify or apply the depth-of-field effect after the photo has been captured.

Steps to Edit or Apply Portrait Mode

The method described below is typically used to modify the depth effect or apply the Portrait Mode filter to photos already compatible with this feature, such as those taken with a device that supports Portrait Mode capture.

Here are the steps based on the provided reference:

  1. Select the photo that you want to change.
  2. Tap Edit.
  3. Tap Portrait at the top of your screen.
  4. Tap Done.

This sequence of actions allows you to access and modify the specific parameters available for photos shot in Portrait Mode, such as adjusting the level of background blur or changing lighting effects.

Step-by-Step Guide

Let's break down the process:

  • Step 1: Choose Your Photo
    Navigate to your photo library and find the image you wish to adjust. Select it to open it in full view.
  • Step 2: Enter Edit Mode
    Look for an "Edit" option, typically represented by an icon like a set of sliders or pencils. Tapping this button opens the photo editing interface.
  • Step 3: Access Portrait Tools
    Within the editing screen, locate and tap Portrait at the top of your screen. This option will only appear if the selected photo contains the necessary depth data captured during the original shot. Tapping it enables the specific controls for adjusting the Portrait effect.
  • Step 4: Finalize Changes
    Once you have made your desired adjustments (like modifying the depth of field or applying lighting effects), Tap Done to save the changes to your photo.

Visualizing the Process

Here's a simple table summarizing the steps:
