How to Do the Pumpkin Head Photoshoot with AI

The real-life version needs a hollowed pumpkin, a helper and an open field at dusk. The AI version needs one photo of you. These steps cover the route from choosing that photo to a finished jack-o'-lantern portrait.

Three steps from outfit photo to pumpkin head portrait

01

1. Choose the outfit before the photo

Your face will not appear, so decide what you want people to recognise: a favourite coat, work clothes or an outfit that matches a friend's. Then take or find a photo of you standing in it, framed from head to at least the knees.

02

2. Upload one photo and start

The trend page has a single upload slot for one person. The field, dusk sky, carved pumpkin and grain are fixed, so there is no prompt to write and no style to choose. The finished image is saved to your assets, so you can leave the page while it is made.

03

3. Look at the neckline first

Where the pumpkin meets your collar is the most telling spot. Then compare clothing colours with your original, count fingers and check the trouser hems at the bottom of the frame. A brighter, less cluttered source photo usually fixes more than another attempt with the same one.

Questions & answers

Can I make a couple portrait or choose another pumpkin-head scene?

This template is set up for one person, using one photo, in an open autumn field at dusk. It does not offer a couple mode or a scene selector. Choose a source that shows your outfit and pose; those are the personal details the pumpkin-headed portrait is designed to carry over.

How many photos do I need?

One: a photo of you that shows your outfit.

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 Pumpkin Head image is saved to your assets.

Will my face still show?

No. Your head is fully replaced by the pumpkin; your outfit, body and pose are what make it yours.

Ideas for your next photo

Pick a premise, choose the right photo, and turn one finished image into a post worth sharing.
