What should stay recognizable?

Compare the eye shape, eyebrow line, nose, smile, hairline, skin tone and apparent age. Clothing and lighting can change without deliberately erasing personal characteristics. A flattering portrait should still be credible to someone who knows the person.

CheckWhat to look for
Facial identityFamiliar proportions, eye shape and smile; no unexpected age change.
SkinVisible natural texture rather than uniformly smooth, waxy skin.
Small detailsBelievable teeth, glasses if worn, hair edges, collars and face-to-neck transitions.
Professional contextClothing and background that suit the role without distracting from the face.
Final cropEnough headroom and a face that remains legible in a small profile image.

  1. Choose your own clear referencesUpload 1–3 recent photos of yourself with even light and an unobstructed face. The synthetic left-hand illustration is not a customer upload.
  2. Set the first professional lookFor a formal company bio, choose a navy outfit and a simple background. Preserve your hairstyle when maintaining your existing identity is the priority.
  3. Try a second settingFor an approachable personal profile, change the outfit or background while keeping the person and intended expression consistent. Each new requested image uses a credit.
  4. Compare and selectReview actual results next to your real references. Check face details and the final crop, then download only images you are comfortable publishing.
