━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✨ y2ksnap — Y2K Digicam Flash Look (Krea 2) On-site trained · Krea 2 base · Trigger: y2ksnap ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Recreates the direct on-camera flash look of early-2000s compact digicams — harsh shadow cast behind the subject, overexposed skin, dark background falloff, low dynamic range, slightly muted colors, unposed candid framing. The signature is the lighting, not costume or era props — it renders on modern subjects and modern settings, not just period scenes.

🔑 Trigger word: y2ksnap — include it in every prompt, the flash look is bound to this token only.

⚙️ Training details

• Base: Krea 2 (on-site trainer, AI Toolkit engine)
• 44 curated images — mix of single-subject, couples/groups, and empty-scene shots (indoor/outdoor, day/night)
• 2,000 steps, 10 checkpoints — this upload is epoch 10
• Captions: content-only tags (subject/setting/pose) — no lighting or style words in the training captions, so the flash aesthetic stays bound to the trigger and doesn't fight your own prompt wording

🎯 Best for: night and indoor candid shots — portraits, couples, groups, and empty interiors/street scenes. Works across a wide range of subjects since the dataset deliberately spanned solo/group, indoor/outdoor, and multiple lighting times.

💡 Prompting tips

• Keep prompts short and content-only (subject + setting + time of day) — let the LoRA carry the lighting, don't re-describe flash/grain/exposure yourself
• Recommended strength: 0.8–1.2, default 1.0
• Use direct age/gender wording — "woman", "man", "young woman" etc. Avoid bare "girl" / "boy" / "teenager" without an adult qualifier; in testing, those bare words nudged renders toward a younger-looking subject regardless of intent. Same rule applies whether you're prompting adults or just describing a scene.

🚫 Not for: soft/studio lighting looks — this LoRA pushes hard toward direct-flash harshness. Lower the weight (0.6–0.8) if you want a softer version of the effect instead of full harsh-flash.
