A method for automatically creating lighting settings based on an image or images. An event associated with such images can be detected, such as the uploading of a number of photos to a gallery, or the posting of an image on social media. By assessing the event, and the image or images, it is possible to determine whether and how to create a new lighting scene. If multiple images are present, it may be possible to group or merge the images to downselect to one or a small number of images, or image parameters. The lighting scene or scenes can then be created based on these images or parameters. For example, a scene can be created to mimic the colour palette, or even to attempt to mimic or reflect shapes or distributions of light or colour in the image.
