Questions about Professional headshot prompts

What photo should I start from?

A front-facing photo at eye level with even light, no sunglasses or hat. A phone selfie by a window works well.

Will the headshot still look like me?

These prompts tell the model to keep the same face and expression. If it drifts, ask for fewer changes, for example keep your own clothes and only change the background.

Can I use an AI headshot on LinkedIn?

Yes, many people do. Choose a result that looks like you today, and avoid heavy retouching so people recognize you when they meet you.
