What this template does
Blue Rim Light Portrait uses a person photo to make a low-key side-profile image. A cobalt-blue backlight traces the hair, face and shoulders against a nearly black background while the source photo guides identity.
How to use it
- Choose a source portrait with a clear face and hairstyle.
- Launch the template and provide the photo as the single reference.
- Generate and check the facial resemblance and light separation around the silhouette.
What to expect
The image is a generated editorial portrait, not a simple lighting overlay on the exact uploaded pixels.
Tips for better results
- A three-quarter or side-facing source can make a profile treatment easier.
- Avoid strong foreground clutter around the head.
- Review whether the blue edge light outlines hair naturally rather than turning the whole face blue.

Is the face meant to be brightly lit?
No. The look keeps most facial detail in shadow and uses blue rim light to define the silhouette.
