What Photo Series does
Photo Series takes one photo of a face and generates a six-shot themed collage — same face, six different worlds. Yearbook 1980s, LinkedIn professional pack, anime portrait, editorial fashion, etc. The output is a downloadable 2×3 grid ready to post on X or Instagram.
This is the pattern Mage's "AI Yearbook" ran viral with in 2023. EGAKU AI exposes it at egaku-ai.com/photo-series with more series (five as of July 2026) and higher-quality identity preservation.
Why identity preservation is the hard problem
Anyone can prompt "a person in a 1980s yearbook photo." The hard problem is that YOUR face has to survive that prompt — not a generic "similar-looking person," but the actual identity from your reference photo, six times in a row, six different styles.
The engine is fal-ai/consistent-character, which combines face embedding extraction with a low-strength LoRA at inference time. The face is locked; only the style around it changes. This is a Pro-tier feature (Lite plan does not include it) because the fal cost per run is high — six identity-locked generations = six separate render calls.
The five series in July 2026
- 1980s Yearbook — feathered hair, pastel laser backgrounds, cheerleader / prom / nerd / athlete / prom king variants.
- Professional Pack — corporate headshot, startup founder, tech professional, creative director, academic, conference speaker. Six real headshot roles for LinkedIn / About pages.
- Anime Portrait — six anime style variants with the identity landmarks preserved (jawline, eye shape, nose bridge).
- Editorial Fashion — magazine spread compositions, soft studio lighting, six couture-adjacent looks.
- Cinematic Portrait — six film-still styles, from Wes Anderson symmetry to Michael Bay contrast.
New series get added when internal test rates hit 80%+ identity match. The bar is high because a 60% identity match reads as "similar person" not "you."
Best use cases
- Yearbook social posts — the original viral use case, still popular.
- Headshot pack for LinkedIn / About pages — real practical value. Six different roles you might play professionally, in one afternoon.
- Character sheet for creators — same character in six moods, use as reference for storyboarding.
- AI influencer identity pack — for creators building an AI persona on Fanvue, Patreon, etc. Six looks in one drop.
What Photo Series is NOT: it's not a deepfake tool. Real-person names are blocked. Photos of yourself, generated AI faces, or public-domain historical figures are the intended input.
