Add Deceased Loved One to Photo

Add Deceased Loved One to Photo is a gentle way to see you and someone you miss in one picture. From two photos, one of you and one of them, it makes a warm scene of the two of you together, side by side on a garden bench in soft afternoon light or laughing on a porch at dusk, with the light and colour matched so it looks like one day. It is an AI-made memorial picture, not a real photograph.

What is a memorial photo made with AI?

People who search add deceased loved one to photo are usually looking for one thing: someone they miss beside them in a new picture. A parent, a grandparent, a friend, a moment you never got to photograph. It is also searched as memorial photo ai, or simply as add someone to a photo ai.

Add Deceased Loved One to Photo works from two photos of adults. The prompt keeps both faces, hairstyles and clothes as in their own photos and matches the light so the two of you look photographed on the same day. It stays a picture made from memory: keep it as a keepsake, and share it as what it is.

FAQ

Is it free to use these prompts?

Copying a prompt is free. Making it here uses 40 credits for one Nano Banana 2.1 image at 1K, so the 100 credits you get when you sign up make 2. On monthly plans Starter pays 32 credits an image and Pro 20. Unlimited makes Nano Banana 2.1 images without using credits.

What photos work best?

Two clear photos of adults: one of you and one of the person you miss, with their faces easy to see. An older or scanned photo is fine if the face is clear.

Is this a real photograph?

No. It is an AI-made memorial picture: it puts two separate photos into one scene that never happened. Keep it as a keepsake, and when you share it, say that it was made with AI.

Can I change the pose or the place?

Yes. The cards describe one pose each, such as an arm around the shoulders; change the words to fit the two of you, for example “holding hands at the kitchen table”.

Should I turn it into a video?

You can: under your result, tap Animate it. Take a moment before you do. A moving picture of someone you miss can feel very different from a still one, for you and for family who see it.

Can I use a photo of a child?

No. This page is for adults’ photos only.

Should I ask my family first?

If the person was close to others too, it can be kind to talk to them before you share the picture.

How long does it take?

About one to two minutes for one picture. It is saved in My creations, so you can leave the page while it works.

Do I need an account?

Not to read or copy a prompt. To make it here, sign up for a free account: the card, the prompt and your photos are still there when you come back.
