Published

Keywords

LinkedIn, headshot, corporate, studio, portrait, professional photo

Use case

Turn a casual portrait into a clean, American-style professional headshot suitable for LinkedIn, corporate profiles, or personal websites—while keeping the person looking like themselves.

Prompt

Convert the uploaded portrait into a US-style corporate professional headshot (studio corporate photography) while preserving the original person’s facial features and identity. Do not change facial structure, age, ethnicity, or hairstyle.

Composition: mid-torso / half-body portrait, subject centered, level camera angle, natural proportions, clean and elegant framing.
Background: blue textured studio backdrop with a subtle gradient, no patterns, no text.
Lighting: soft natural studio lighting (flattering key light + gentle fill), catchlights in both eyes, no harsh shadows.
Detail & realism: high-definition clarity, sharp focus on face, natural skin texture, realistic skin tones, minimal retouching.
Outfit & styling: sleeveless white dress, minimalist and elegant design, modern professional look, simple gold jewelry (small earrings + delicate necklace), neat grooming.
Expression: relaxed, confident, and natural, bright engaging eyes, genuine smile.

Negative prompt (recommended)

cartoon, anime, CGI, illustration, plastic skin, over-retouched, heavy makeup, face distortion, identity change, extra teeth, asymmetrical eyes, blurry, low resolution, harsh flash, strong shadows, busy background, text, watermark, logo.

Notes

If the outfit is inconsistent, add: “no blazer, no jacket, no collar, no patterned clothing.” If the face drifts, repeat: “match the original identity exactly.”
