Find where the main light hits your face, then check that his face and shoulders are lit from the same side. Shadows on the ground or wall should fall in one direction for both of you, and the grain should look the same across the frame. If he looks pasted on, a photo with simpler, softer light usually gives a better match.
Zoom into the area where his arm, hair or ragged clothing passes near your shoulder. Edges should overlap naturally, with no halo, no missing piece of your outline and no hand fused into your jacket. These overlaps are where AI composites most often show seams.
Compare your face, outfit and stance with the original. The template aims to keep them close, so a different jacket or a stranger's face means the photo did not carry over well. Try again with a sharper, front-facing upload, and keep the AI label on whichever version you post.
