Take Portrait mode photos with your iPhone camera

On iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone X, and later, you can apply studio-quality lighting effects to your Portrait mode photos.

The Camera screen in Portrait mode; in the view finder, the subject is sharp and the background is blurred. The dial to select Portrait lighting effects is open in the bottom of the frame and Studio Light is selected. At the top left of the screen is the Flash button, at the top center is the Camera Controls button, and at the top right of the screen are the buttons to adjust Portrait lighting intensity and depth control. At the bottom of the screen are, from left to right, the Photo and Video Viewer button, the Take Picture button, and the Camera Chooser Back-Facing button.

  1. Open Camera, then select Portrait mode.

  2. Follow the tips onscreen to frame your subject in the yellow portrait box.

  3. Drag the Portrait Lighting control to choose a lighting effect:

    • Natural Light: The face is in sharp focus against a blurred background.

    • Studio Light: The face is brightly lit, and the photo has an overall clean look.

    • Contour Light: The face has dramatic shadows with highlights and lowlights.

    • Stage Light: The face is spotlit against a deep black background.

    • Stage Light Mono: The effect is similar to Stage Light, but the photo is in classic black and white.

    • High-Key Light Mono: Creates a grayscale subject on a white background (available on iPhone XS, iPhone XR, and later).

  4. Tap the Shutter button to take the shot.

After you take a photo in Portrait mode, you can remove the Portrait mode effect if you don’t like it. In the Photos app
