Frequently Asked Questions
Is an AI headshot appropriate for journalism?
AI headshots are generated from your own selfies to improve how you look in a portrait. Check your outlet's policy on profile photos and disclose if your employer requires it.
Can I use the headshot on author pages and social profiles?
Yes. You receive full commercial rights, so you can use your headshots on websites, bylines, social media, and speaker pages.
Will it look natural rather than overly polished?
You can choose understated, natural styles as well as more polished looks, depending on what suits your outlet and audience.
What should I wear in my selfies?
Wear something you would wear on camera or at an interview. Solid colors usually work best, and the AI adapts attire to the style you choose.
