# Krea 2 Realism LoRA

A realism LoRA for **Krea 2**. It pushes Krea 2 toward natural, candid, true-to-life photography — everyday people, places, and light — without needing any "photorealistic / 8k / DSLR" style keywords. Just write a normal, descriptive sentence and let the LoRA do the rest.

Trained with the [FAL Krea LoRA Trainer](https://fal.ai/models/fal-ai/krea-2/turbo) on [`krea/Krea-2-Raw`](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Raw) and meant to be used directly on [`krea/Krea-2-Turbo`](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Turbo) (per Krea's recommended workflow of training on Raw and running on Turbo).

## Trigger words

**No trigger word is required.** Simply describe the scene in plain natural language. Longer, descriptive single-sentence prompts work best, e.g.:

> *A young woman taking a selfie in front of a steamy bathroom mirror with her phone partly covering her face, soft morning light coming through a frosted window, water droplets on the glass and a white towel wrapped around her hair*

## Usage with 🤗 diffusers

Install diffusers from source (for `Krea2Pipeline`):

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers.git
```

```python
import torch
from diffusers import Krea2Pipeline

pipe = Krea2Pipeline.from_pretrained(
    "krea/Krea-2-Turbo", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
).to("cuda")

pipe.load_lora_weights("gokaygokay/Krea-2-Realism-LoRA")

prompt = (
    "A woman with curly hair laughing while holding an open paperback in a cluttered "
    "secondhand bookshop, tall crowded shelves towering around her in soft warm lamplight"
)

image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=8, guidance_scale=0.0).images[0]
image.save("krea2_realism.png")
```

## Usage with fal

The LoRA can be used directly on the hosted Krea 2 Turbo endpoint by pointing to the weights:

```python
import fal_client

result = fal_client.subscribe(
    "fal-ai/krea-2/turbo/lora",
    arguments={
        "prompt": "A barista with tattooed forearms leaning on the worn wooden counter of a tiny corner cafe holding a cup with delicate latte art, late afternoon sun streaking across shelves of mismatched mugs behind her",
        "loras": [{
            "path": "https://huggingface.co/gokaygokay/Krea-2-Realism-LoRA/resolve/main/krea2_realism_lora.safetensors",
            "scale": 1.0
        }],
        "image_size": {"width": 1280, "height": 1600},
        "num_images": 1
    },
)
print(result["images"][0]["url"])
```

## Recommended settings

- **Steps:** 8 (Turbo), **guidance scale:** 0.0
- **LoRA scale:** ~1.0 (lower to ~0.7-0.8 for a subtler effect)
- **Resolution:** works well at 1024-1536 on the short side; the examples below are 1280×1600

## Examples

All images below were generated on Krea 2 Turbo with this LoRA at scale 1.0, using only plain descriptive prompts (no style keywords).
