How to Convert Landscape to Portrait

  1. 1

    Upload your image

    Start by uploading the landscape photo you want to convert. You can select a JPG, PNG, or HEIC file from your device.

  2. 2

    Enter your prompt

    Provide simple text instructions to guide the AI. For example, type "Extend this image to a 9:16 portrait aspect ratio."

  3. 3

    Generate your portrait image

    Click the generate button and let the AI work its magic. It will extend the image vertically, creating a new portrait version.

  4. 4

    Download your new image

    Once you are happy with the result, download your new high-resolution portrait image, ready for any platform.

Turn your horizontal photos into vertical masterpieces without losing any of the original image. Traditional methods require you to crop out important details, but our AI-powered tool takes a different approach. It intelligently generates new content above and below your photo, extending the scene in a natural way. This process, often called AI outpainting, preserves your original composition while adapting it perfectly for vertical formats like social media stories, mobile wallpapers, and portrait-oriented prints.

Our Landscape to Portrait Converter uses advanced AI to analyze the context of your photo. It understands the lighting, textures, and patterns to generate new pixels that blend seamlessly with the original image. This means you can extend a sky, continue a background, or expand a pattern without any awkward seams or distortions. The result is a high-quality portrait image that looks as if it were originally shot in that orientation, maintaining a natural and professional appearance from every angle.

It’s an intuitive and fast solution for anyone needing to repurpose content for different platforms.
