Professional Headshot Creator

Create a professional profile photo from a selfie

Image
Prompt
"A professional, high-resolution profile photo, maintaining the exact facial structure, identity, and key features of the person in the input image. The subject is framed from the chest up, with ample headroom. The person looks directly at the camera. They are styled for a professional photo studio shoot, wearing a premium smart casual blazer in a subtle charcoal gray. The background is a solid '#562226' neutral studio color. Shot from a high angle with bright and airy soft, diffused studio lighting, gently illuminating the face and creating a subtle catchlight in the eyes, conveying a sense of clarity. Captured on an 85mm f/1.8 lens with a shallow depth of field, exquisite focus on the eyes, and beautiful, soft bokeh. Observe crisp detail on the fabric texture of the blazer, individual strands of hair, and natural, realistic skin texture. The atmosphere exudes confidence, professionalism, and approachability. Clean and bright cinematic color grading with subtle warmth and balanced tones, ensuring a polished and contemporary feel."

Style Notes

Avatar / Profile
Head-and-shoulders framing that stays readable as a tiny circle — centered face, clean background, strong color separation.
Cinematic
Film-style rendering — widescreen framing, dramatic lighting contrast, graded colors (often teal-orange), and a sense of narrative in the scene.
Hero Portrait
A single dominant subject shot like a key visual — tight framing, strong eye contact or pose, background simplified so the character carries the image.
Interior Space
Room-scale scenes with coherent perspective, furniture styling and light sources — architectural visualization meets lifestyle photography.
Modern Day
Contemporary setting cues — current fashion, devices, and interiors — keeping the model from drifting into retro or fantasy defaults.
Photo
Asks the model for photorealistic output — natural lighting, believable skin and materials, camera-like depth of field — rather than illustration or 3D looks.
Product Mockup
The design presented in context — packaging on a shelf, app on a phone screen, tee on a model — to preview how it looks in the real world.
Social Media Post
Composition and aspect ratio tuned for feeds (Instagram, X, Xiaohongshu): bold focal subject, room for overlay text, colors that survive small screens.
Soft Light
Diffused, low-contrast lighting — gentle shadows and flattering skin tones, like window light or an overcast day.
Studio Lighting
Controlled artificial light (softboxes, rim lights) — clean shadows and highlight control, the standard look of commercial portrait and product work.
