# How to generate Photorealistic Faces

Struggling to create photorealistic faces within Sogni? Here are some tips to help you on your creative journey: \
\
• Add keywords related to the face you want in the image. Just mentioning the style of eyes or type of facial expression can already help. Also, adding keywords like "perfect face" or "highly detailed face" usually makes the model put in more effort. \
\
• Use a lower Guidance Scale setting when looking for photorealistic results. **A lower Guidance setting around 5-6** can help maintain softer edges and achieve more realistic lighting, film, and atmospheric effects. \
\
• For achieving photorealistic faces, consider experimenting with the Film and Photography style presets to fine-tune the visual nuances. \
\
• Turn OFF automatic scaling in the Advanced tab. The upscaler can sometimes lead to excessive smoothing, particularly on faces and skin areas, resulting in an unnatural appearance.
