AI Professional Headshot Prompt | Realistic Portrait Generator

## Final Professional Headshot Prompt
Use my uploaded portrait photo as the **only face, identity, hairstyle, skin tone, age, body-shape, and appearance reference**.
Create an ultra-realistic, premium **professional corporate headshot** inspired by the reference image. The final portrait must be suitable for LinkedIn, company websites, business profiles, resumes, executive portfolios, and personal branding.
Create the image in a **vertical 4:5 portrait ratio**.
### Face and identity preservation — highest priority
Preserve my exact and clearly recognisable facial identity from the uploaded photo:
* Exact face shape and facial proportions
* Forehead, hairline, hairstyle, hair texture, hair length, and hair volume
* Eyebrows, eyes, eyelids, eye spacing, nose, lips, ears, cheeks, jawline, and chin
* Exact skin tone, age, natural facial asymmetry, and realistic skin texture
* Original smile, expression, neck shape, shoulder width, and natural body proportions
* Preserve glasses, earrings, facial hair, or other identifying details when present in my uploaded image
**Do not replace my face with another person.**
Do not mix my face with a celebrity, model, actor, or fictional character.
Do not beautify, reshape, slim, sharpen, smooth, age, de-age, or modify my facial features.
Do not change my hairstyle, hair colour, skin tone, eye colour, facial proportions, or body shape.
Identity accuracy and recognisability must be the highest priority.
### Composition and pose
Show me from the upper chest or mid-torso upward, facing the camera directly.
Use a confident yet approachable professional pose with:
* Relaxed shoulders
* Upright posture
* Direct eye contact
* A subtle, warm, natural smile
* Head positioned straight or with a very slight natural angle
Keep the facial features sharp, unobstructed, and clearly visible.
### Clothing
Dress me in a perfectly tailored **dark navy-blue or charcoal business blazer** over a clean white V-neck blouse or professional shirt.
Keep the outfit elegant, minimal, realistic, and correctly fitted to my natural body shape. Avoid excessive accessories, patterns, logos, or distracting jewellery.
### Hair and makeup
Maintain my original hairstyle and hair texture accurately. Style the hair neatly with soft natural volume and realistic individual strands.
Use minimal professional grooming or natural makeup only. Preserve natural skin pores, fine lines, and authentic facial details. Avoid heavy makeup, artificial skin smoothing, glossy plastic skin, or excessive retouching.
### Background and lighting
Use a clean, soft light-grey studio background with a subtle neutral gradient. Keep the background plain, elegant, and distraction-free.
Use premium professional studio lighting:
* Large softbox lighting from the front and slightly to one side
* Soft, even illumination across the face
* Natural catchlights in both eyes
* Gentle shadows defining the jawline and cheekbones
* Subtle background separation
* Balanced exposure with no harsh highlights or dark shadows
