AI Headshot Generator - Free Professional Headshot

How to use the AI headshot generator

Move through prompt, reference images, and model selection in the same order you generate.

Upload a recent selfie

Take a clear, well-lit selfie or portrait photo and upload it to the AI headshot generator. A front-facing photo with your face clearly visible works best — the AI will handle the rest, including lighting, background, and retouching to create a professional result.

Describe your preferred headshot style

The preset creates a classic corporate headshot, but you can describe your preference: conservative business attire with a gray background, creative professional with a warm tone and navy backdrop, executive look with a dark suit and dramatic lighting, or a natural minimal style for modern resumes.

Generate and download your headshot

The AI generates a professional headshot with polished studio lighting, clean background, and subtle retouching. Review the result, fine-tune the prompt for adjustments, and regenerate until you have the perfect photo for LinkedIn, resumes, company websites, or professional profiles.

User reviews

Feedback closer to real usage than marketing copy.

“I needed a quick headshot update for a conference speaker profile and didn't have time to book a photographer. I used this AI headshot generator with a selfie I took in my office and the result was good enough that multiple colleagues asked who my photographer was. The lighting and background are incredibly realistic.”
