Glasses may be part of how someone wants to be remembered. Reducing a reflection should not automatically mean asking them to remove them.

Make a normal sample

Start with the person looking naturally toward the camera. Identify the reflection in the actual captured image, not only the live preview. Check whether it comes from a lamp, window or bright screen. Keep their preferred expression and comfort in mind before trying a correction.

Try small positional changes

Move the light or camera where safely possible and compare a modest change in head angle. Avoid extreme tilting that replaces the reflection with an awkward pose. Repeat the test with the person’s normal glasses position; an improvement that works only while they hold the frames is hard to sustain.

Approve the portrait together

Review both eyes and the full sequence. Let the person choose whether a remaining reflection matters. Keep an alternative frame if needed, but do not promise to reconstruct hidden eyes accurately through editing. A thoughtful physical setup is usually easier to explain than a heavily altered portrait.
