Why this shot works

A beach photo says relaxed and up for things. Four things keep it from looking like a postcard.

01

Late sun, not midday

Noon sun makes everyone squint. An hour before sunset gives warm skin and soft shadows.

02

The water behind you

Keep the horizon low and soft. It says where you are and keeps the focus on you.

03

Dressed for it

A linen shirt, a sundress, a hat. Relaxed clothes keep it easy and believable.

04

Still you

Your face, your skin, your build. Better light and a better beach, not a different person.

Three steps. No photographer.

Questions

Do I need a photo taken at the beach?

No. A few clear selfies are enough. Magnt learns your face once, then builds the beach, the light and the sea around you.

Will it still look like me?

Yes. Your face, skin and build stay yours. Magnt changes the light and the place, not the person.

Can I pick the city?

Yes. Name any city, street or season in the prompt. The skyline, the light and the weather follow.

How long does it take?

About 60 seconds for a photo. Videos take a few minutes.

Can it talk in the video?

Yes. Type a line and you say it to the camera, in a 5 or 10 second clip.

What if I don’t love the result?

Change one line in the prompt and try again, or ask for a variation. Keep only the ones you like.

Your beach day is ready when you are.

A few selfies in. A sunny beach photo out. Then make it move.
