Mugshot Generator — a parody mugshot from your own photo

Open Kenerate's Image Studio, pick GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst at 2K and a 4:5 portrait ratio, attach your photo, and write: “a parody booking photo of this person, front view, flat light, deadpan face, height chart from 4 ft to 7 ft behind, holding a placard that reads ‘COUNTY OF SNACKS’, ‘JO RIVERA’, ‘FOR STEALING FRIES’”. Read every letter, then download — there's no watermark.

Free to start. A new Kenerate account gets 25 credits on sign-up, and Qwen Image 3.0 is a free-plan model — 9 credits, or 9.9 with your photo attached. GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst, the best model for placard text, is 11.7 credits at 1K or 16.5 at 2K with your photo. After that, credits come in one-time packs that never expire, with no subscription.

Only if they know and agree. A booking photo implies an arrest, so a fake mugshot of a real person who hasn't agreed can mislead people, embarrass them or be defamatory. Use your own photo, your pet, a fictional character, or a friend who's in on the joke — and for children, a parent's or guardian's OK. Never make one of a celebrity, a politician, an ex, a coworker or anyone else to mock or shame them; Kenerate's terms prohibit harassment and deceptive impersonation.

Usually, if the placard is two or three short lines and each one is in quotes. GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst, Ideogram v4 and Recraft V4.1 are the Kenerate models tagged for text rendering, but OpenAI's own guide says image models can still struggle with precise text placement and clarity. Check every letter and digit; if one is wrong, Edit Text in Image swaps just that word for 21 credits with its default model.

Ask for it by name and give the range: “height chart lines from 4 ft to 7 ft behind, marked every 6 inches” or “from 120 to 210 cm”. Say “flat front lighting, plain grey wall” as well — that's what makes it read as a booking photo rather than a portrait.

Yes — pets make the best suspects. Attach a photo of your dog or cat and try a placard like “‘BISCUIT’, ‘FOR GRAND THEFT SOCKS’, ‘#0007’”. Ask for “front view and side profile, two panels” for the classic two-shot look. The AI pet portrait generator has more styles if you want something formal.

Yes, with everyone's OK. Make the first mugshot, then attach it plus each person's photo and write “same mugshot style as the first image, this person's face, placard ‘NAME’, ‘#NUMBER’”. Nano Banana 2.1 keeps a set consistent. They work as murder-mystery character cards, a jailbird costume photo booth or a game-night line-up.

No. Use a made-up agency — “COUNTY OF SNACKS”, “NORTH POLE POLICE DEPT” — and no real seals, badges or case numbers. A mugshot that looks like a real record can be mistaken for one, and Kenerate's terms prohibit forged civic documents and deceptive impersonation.

4:5 for an Instagram post, 1:1 for a profile picture, 3:4 or 2:3 for a printed photo. A 4×6 in print is 1200×1800 px at 300 dpi, which 2K covers; for Letter (2550×3300 px) generate at 4K or use the Image Upscaler (3 credits, up to 8K).
