Questions about our AI headshots

How to take good input photos on your phone, how a retoucher's check keeps results from looking uncanny, and how your photos are protected once they reach the studio.

Uploads

Phone photos, likeness and glasses

What photos do I need to upload, and should I dress up?

No suit and no studio visit are needed for your input photos. Wardrobe and studio lighting are generated separately, so all that matters is a clear, undistorted view of your face and hair. Upload 10 to 14 well-lit phone photos taken on different days, or six fresh chest-height shots facing an indoor window, with no sunglasses, hats, heavy beauty filters or wide-angle arm's-length distortion.

Why won't the portraits look plastic or uncanny?

One-click apps push facial smoothing hard and email out raw automated batches. Here, facial landmark proportions are locked closely to your real features, the lighting simulates a medium-format camera with subtle sensor grain, and a commercial retoucher inspects and colour-grades every gallery by hand before you see it.

I wear prescription glasses daily. Will the frames and eyes look right?

Yes. If you want glasses in the final portraits, wear your everyday frames in every uploaded photo and avoid heavy window glare across the lenses. The optical QA check screens for symmetrical frame geometry, and the 1-on-1 Retouch Upgrade can match a signature frame exactly.

Delivery

Ordering, where portraits can go and file formats

Can AI headshots go on LinkedIn and company websites?

Yes. LinkedIn, company directories, speaker bureaus and publishers accept professional AI headshots as long as the portrait accurately shows how you look today. Only government IDs, such as passports, driving licences and visas, require an unmodified photograph.

If your question is not covered here, the contact form reaches the studio directly, and no order is needed to get an answer. Send a question instead.

Does the website confirm my order?

No. The website passes your request to the studio or opens the configured Book destination; it does not confirm an order or reserve a delivery date. The studio confirms each order directly.

What resolution and file formats are included?

Every portrait comes as a high-resolution 300-DPI file for print, from magazine profiles to book jackets and trade-show signage, along with web-ready JPEGs sized for LinkedIn, Slack, Google Workspace and Retina-quality “About” grids.

Trust

The Likeness Guarantee and your data

What if the portraits don't look enough like me?

Every order that meets the photo-upload checklist is covered by the Likeness Guarantee. If the first gallery misses, an imaging specialist reviews your source angles, coaches you through five quick replacement window photos if needed and re-runs your model free of charge, or refunds you in full if you have not downloaded the high-resolution master pack.

What happens to my selfies and facial model after delivery?

Your photos are processed in a private, single-client container and are never used to train public AI models or shared with third parties. Thirty days after delivery, giving you time to ask for retouches or extra crops, your uploads and trained model weights are permanently purged, and you can trigger deletion from your delivery link at any time. The Privacy page explains what the contact and subscribe forms collect, why it is collected and how to request removal.

Still weighing up a package?

Compare the six packages, then upload your photos when you are ready. A retoucher checks every gallery before it is delivered.
