AI Relighting FAQ
Learn how our 3D light engine transforms your smartphone photos.
Q. Can AI fix bad or yellow restaurant lighting in food photos?
Yes. ChefShot is specifically designed to rescue poorly lit photos taken in dark, tungsten, or mixed-lighting restaurants. The AI completely strips away the original bad lighting and replaces it with professional studio illumination.
Q. What is the difference between AI relighting and standard photo filters?
Standard filters like those in Lightroom or Instagram just apply a flat color overlay to your 2D image. ChefShot’s AI actually generates a 3D spatial depth map of your food, allowing it to cast realistic volumetric shadows and simulate directional light sources just like real-world photography equipment.
Q. How do I make my food photos look like they were taken during golden hour?
You can shoot indoors at midnight, and ChefShot can instantly simulate warm, 5 PM sunlight. The AI dynamically adds natural directional light and long, appetizing shadows to your dish to mimic perfect Golden Hour conditions.
Q. Do I need to buy expensive softboxes or ring lights for food photography?
No. ChefShot acts as a world-class photography studio in your pocket. The AI simulates the exact physics of professional lighting equipment, saving you hundreds of dollars on physical softboxes, reflectors, and studio setups.
