Best Selfie for a Red-Eye Vampire Flash Photo

This template changes three things people look at first: the eyes, the mouth and the light. So the upload matters most in exactly those places. A plain, evenly lit selfie usually works better than a styled photo with sunglasses, a filter or a big grin.

Choosing a face the flash can work with

01

Eyes open and uncovered

The red eyes are painted over your own, so the model needs to see their shape. Skip sunglasses, tinted lenses, heavy glare on glasses, squinting and photos where your hair falls across one eye. Clear glasses are fine if the eyes are easy to see through them.

02

A mouth that can turn into a smirk

Small fangs are added to a playful smirk. A relaxed mouth or a closed smile gives the cleanest starting point. A wide open laugh, a hand over the mouth, a straw or a vape in the shot leave the model guessing about your teeth and lips.

03

Even light, not flash already

You do not need to shoot with flash yourself; the template adds it. Soft window light or shade shows your real skin tone and features. A photo with strong coloured light, deep shadow across half the face or a beauty filter gives the model less of the real you to keep.

04

Close enough to see your face

The result is framed from the chest up, so a selfie or head-and-shoulders photo is ideal. A full-length photo where your face is tiny gives too little detail. Your outfit does not matter, because it is replaced by the black lace top and choker.

05

Your hairstyle carries over

The template keeps your own hair, so use a photo where it looks the way you want it in the picture. Hats, hoods and caps can hide the hairline and change how the hair is redrawn, so take them off if you can.

06

One person, with consent

Use a photo with only one face in it, or crop a group photo tightly around that person first. This template makes one vampire; for two people, use the Vampire Couple Portrait instead. Only upload photos of yourself or of people who have agreed.

Questions & answers

How many photos do I need?

One: a clear photo of you.

Is my photo private?

Your photos are used to make your image. Only upload photos of yourself, or of people who have agreed to it.

Can I use the result commercially?

Check your plan's terms for what you can do with generated images. They apply to your result.

How long does it take?

About a minute. You can leave the page; the finished Y2K Vampire Flash image is saved to your assets.

How is this different from the Halloween Costume trend?

Halloween Costume puts you in a classic caped vampire costume, full body, at a candlelit house party. Y2K Vampire Flash is a close, grainy flash snapshot from the chest up with red eyes and fangs, in the style of a 2000s digital camera.

Is there any blood?

No. The look is red eyes, red lips and small fangs, with no blood or gore.

Can I keep my own outfit?

No. The trend dresses you in a black lace-trim top and a silver choker so the look stays consistent. Your face, hair and skin tone come from your photo.
