Turn a wide landscape photo into a portrait with AI, rebuilt for the new frame.
Explore our collection of specialized AI image generators designed for different creative needs and styles
Three short steps. Upload the wide photo, pick a portrait scene, then generate.
Add a horizontal photo. Clear subjects and a readable background usually convert better.
Select 9:16, 4:5, 3:4, or a preset for where you will post or print the image.
Click Convert to Portrait. The AI extends the scene and rebuilds the composition for the taller frame.
It does not shrink a wide photo. It rebuilds the shot so a taller frame still looks like the original scene.
The AI reads the subject, edges, and surrounding space, then places that content in a taller composition. You get a new portrait layout, not a stretched file or a squeezed preview.
A hard crop to 9:16 often cuts people at the edge or chops product packaging. This tool keeps those important areas and adds scene around them so the portrait frame still feels complete.
New pixels follow the colors, textures, lighting, and perspective already in the photo. The added area should look like a continuation of the original image, not a blank border.
Upload several landscape photos at once, up to 10. Each image is converted in turn with the same scene and prompt, so a set of shots does not need a new start for every file.
Social, Instagram, Stories, portrait, product, and wallpaper presets each send a different prompt. Skip a long instruction unless you want one.
Edit the prompt to change composition, background, subject placement, negative space, atmosphere, or visual style. Presets are a starting point, not a fixed look.
Cropping is fast, but it throws away parts of the shot. This converter keeps more of what you already photographed.
Crop a landscape photo to 9:16 and the left and right sides usually disappear. A person near the edge can get cut off. A product that fills the width can lose packaging or look cramped. NanoMaker uses AI to add extra scene for the new portrait frame, so more of the original shot can stay visible.

The extra area is built from the colors, textures, lighting, and surrounding details already in your photo. Newly added regions should look like a continuation of the original image, not an empty border.

When you convert a landscape photo, pick a scene that matches where it will be used. Social, Instagram, Stories, portrait, product, and wallpaper each send a different prompt. Choose the one that fits your need, or keep Default.

A preset is the fastest way in. If you want something more specific, edit the prompt. Ask to move the subject a little higher, leave space for text, continue the original room, extend the sky, or keep a product centered.
Convert landscape to portraitMost people already have wide photos. The platforms they publish on often want a taller frame.
Cameras and phones still capture a lot of landscape images, while Instagram, Stories, and Reels expect a taller portrait format. Convert the shot you already have instead of cropping it down to a thin strip.
YouTube, short video, and social covers often need different picture ratios from the same source. Prepare a vertical version without a second shoot.
Product photography is frequently shot in a wide layout. Product pages, ads, and mobile listings may need a taller portrait layout so the item still reads clearly on a phone.
Ad platforms ask for different creative dimensions. One landscape original can become several portrait versions for stories, feeds, and mobile placements.
Take an existing landscape composition and produce another frame from it. Useful when a client later asks for a vertical crop you never shot.
Prepare poster art, campaign visuals, mobile creatives, and other vertical assets from a landscape source without rebuilding the whole layout from scratch.
Cropping cuts the photo down. A Landscape to Portrait Converter keeps the important parts and fills the new frame.
| What you get | Traditional crop | NanoMaker AI conversion |
|---|---|---|
| Original scene | Removes part of the original image and often cuts people or products. | Keeps more of the original scene and generates extra visual content for the taller frame. |
| Visible environment | Leaves only the center of the photo. | Fits the composition to the new portrait ratio while keeping the setting. |
| Control | You only choose where the crop window sits. | Can be guided by a prompt for placement, space, and background. |
| Use cases | One crop and one ratio. | Works for social, product, wallpaper, poster, and other portrait uses. |
