# Uploading Photos

Renovate AI (RAI) is the place to re-imagine your space – in other words, virtually renovate a photo of your home or business, so you can visualize it before digging a hole or cracking open that first can of paint. 
So it makes sense that the first thing you’re going to want to do is upload a photo of your space. 

###### Photo Tips:
When you take a photo:
* Use descent lighting – shadows and glare aren’t your friends. They’re not RAI’s friends either.
* Take a pic of any space – RAI is and indoor cat AND and outdoor cat. Sure bedrooms and kitchens are our “bread-and-butter,” but don’t forget about bedrooms, entryways, bathrooms, and the exterior of your home. Sheds, backyards, pond areas are spaces too!

To upload a photo:
1. On your mobile device, open the Renovate AI app:
