Quick answer

Updated

Kenerate's AI headshot generator turns a casual selfie into a professional headshot: upload your photo and describe the style — corporate suit on grey, outdoor LinkedIn, creative studio or black-and-white actor headshot. In our tests Seedream 5.0 Pro (at 2K) kept the face and expression the same while changing outfit, backdrop and light. Flux 2 Dev is on the free plan. A free account gets 25 credits; downloads have no watermark.

Tips

Get a headshot that looks like you

What worked in our tests.

  • Use a clear selfie facing the camera, eyes visible, no sunglasses.
  • Good light helps: face a window rather than a lamp.
  • Always add “keep the same face, identity and expression”.
  • Name the outfit, backdrop and light: navy suit, grey backdrop, soft key light.
  • Make three or four styles and pick the most natural.
  • Use only your own photo, or one you have permission to use.

In depth

AI Headshot Generator, explained

What works, what to avoid, and how to pick a model.

Why one-sentence edits work for headshots

Instruction-based editors change only what you describe. Asking for a suit, a backdrop and studio light — while keeping your face — gives a studio-style photo from an everyday selfie.

Picking a style

Corporate grey backdrops suit finance, law and consulting profiles; outdoor or office backgrounds feel friendlier for LinkedIn; black and white is classic for actors and creatives.

    Is the AI headshot generator free?

    A new account gets 25 free credits, which work on free-plan models such as Flux 2 Dev. Seedream 5.0 Pro, which kept faces best in our tests, needs a one-time credit pack; credits never expire.

    Does it add a watermark?

    No. Headshots download without a watermark.

    04
