Why Real Photography Beats AI Headshots
AI can mimic a headshot—but it can’t coach expression, match your brand, or guarantee you actually look like yourself. Here’s what matters most:
Expression & Authenticity
Live coaching to bring out confident, approachable expression.
Often “perfect,” but stiff or uncanny; may not resemble you closely.
Brand Consistency
Controlled lighting, backdrop, and color so your image matches everywhere.
Looks vary by model/app; inconsistencies show on LinkedIn, websites, and press.
Trust & Usage Rights
Licensed, retouched images that are safe for corporate/media use.
May raise disclosure or licensing questions—especially for press or leadership bios.
