Luma Image Capabilities

Any image on your board can be edited, restyled, animated, reframed, analyzed, used as a character/object/background reference, turned into video, or plugged into a larger creative workflow. It's not just a generator — it's a full image pipeline.

Generate New Images

Text-to-Image

Describe anything and get a high-quality image. Supports multiple aspect ratios and resolutions up to 4K.

Edit & Modify Existing Images

Image-to-Image Editing

Describe what you want changed (swap objects, change lighting, alter style, add/remove elements) and the image gets modified while preserving what you want to keep.

Complex Multi-Reference Edits — Combine multiple reference images into one output (e.g., "put this person in this setting wearing this outfit").

Reframe & Resize

Aspect Ratio Changes

Convert a portrait to landscape (or any supported aspect ratio) with AI outpainting that intelligently extends the scene.

Supported aspect ratios: 1:1, 9:16, 3:4, 4:3, 16:9, 21:9

Style & Variations

Moodboards

Generate variations with different styles, colors, lighting, or angles.

Quick Composer

Select an image, drag out a grid, and type a prompt to instantly fill it with variations.

Color Palette Extraction

Pull the exact color palette from any image.

Animate Your Images

Image-to-Video

Turn any still image into a video with camera movement, action, or effects.

Keyframe Animation

Use two images as start and end (5s frame) frames, and generate the video transition between them.

Character & Identity Work

Character Reference Sheets

Generate consistent multi-pose reference sets (front, side, full body) from a single image.

Identity Consistency

Keep the same character looking the same across multiple outputs.

Portrait-to-Model Transformation

Turn a portrait into high-fashion editorial aesthetics.

Subject Extraction

Cut out subjects from their background as clean cutouts.

Camera Angle Changes

Re-angle Scenes

Take an existing image and regenerate it from a different camera perspective (bird's eye, low angle, close-up, etc.)

Lip Sync from Image

Image + Audio → Talking Video

Give it a portrait and a speech audio track, and it can create a realistic talking-head video with lip sync.
