Questions
What is the Y2K aesthetic in photos?
Early 2000s photos had hard flash, glossy saturated colour, a slight glow and a low-res digital look. This filter recreates that on your own photo.
Will it change my face?
No. The tool is told to keep your face, hair, skin tone, expression, pose and clothes exactly the same and to change only the camera look: light, colour, grain and flash.
Can I add a date stamp?
Yes. Pick the orange date stamp and a small retro date appears in the lower right corner, like old cameras printed.
Is it free?
Yes, you can try it for free and download or share the result.
