Lighting plays a central role in conveying the essence and depth of the
subject in a portrait photograph. Professional photographers will carefully
control the lighting in their studio to manipulate the appearance of their
subject, while consumer photographers are usually constrained to the
illumination of their environment. Though prior works have explored techniques
for relighting an image, their utility is usually limited due to requirements
of specialized hardware, multiple images of the subject under controlled or
known illuminations, or accurate models of geometry and reflectance. To this
end, we present a system for portrait relighting: a neural network that takes
as input a single RGB image of a portrait taken with a standard cellphone
camera in an unconstrained environment, and from that image produces a relit
image of that subject as though it were illuminated according to any provided
environment map. Our method is trained on a small database of 18 individuals
captured under different directional light sources in a controlled light stage
setup consisting of a densely sampled sphere of lights. Our proposed technique
produces quantitatively superior results on our dataset's validation set
compared to prior works, and produces convincing qualitative relighting results
on a dataset of hundreds of real-world cellphone portraits. Because our
technique can produce a 640 $\times$ 640 image in only 160 milliseconds, it may
enable interactive user-facing photographic applications in the future.
