AI Headshots for Every Profession

Different professional contexts need different headshots. A LinkedIn profile photo needs to stay readable inside a tiny circular crop, an actor headshot needs casting-friendly range, and a real estate headshot needs to feel approachable without looking casual. Pick the page closest to your use case, then choose a pack and generate your headshots.

Choose by where the photo will be used

A strong professional photo is not one-size-fits-all. The safest choice depends on the platform, audience, and level of formality. Portreya keeps the workflow simple: start with one clear selfie, select the professional context, then choose a paid pack when you are ready to generate finished photos.

What changes between professions

  • Framing: LinkedIn and CV photos need tight head-and-shoulders crops that survive small thumbnails.
  • Expression: actors and client-facing roles need a warmer range; executives often need a steadier tone.
  • Background: neutral studio looks work broadly, while real estate and business profiles can use softer office cues.
