A new headshot session costs hundreds of dollars and a day of your time. Sometimes you need that. Often you just need a fresh look for a submission this week, or a commercial shot to go with your theatrical one. That is what the new AI Headshots tool is for.
Open your admin, go to Tools, then AI Headshots.
How it works
Choose 4 to 20 photos of yourself. You can upload new ones or pick from the photos already on your site. Just you in each one, face clearly visible, no sunglasses or filters. A mix of close-ups and waist-up shots, taken on different days, gives the best likeness.
Then pick three looks: Theatrical, Commercial, City street, Window light, Low key or Golden hour. You get 8 headshots in each look, 24 in all. We teach an AI your face from your photos, then it paints you into each look. It takes about 30 minutes, and you can close the page while it works.
Ask for what you need
Under "Anything to change?" you can ask for glasses or no glasses, a clean-shaven face or a beard, a shaved head, hair pulled back or hair down. There is also a short note field for anything else, like "navy turtleneck" or "freckles visible". It applies to every look.
Your face is saved for 30 days after it is learned. Run a second set in different looks during that time and it skips the learning step and is ready in about 10 minutes.
Straight into your Photos
Each headshot has an Add to Photos button. One click and it sits with the rest of your photo categories, ready for your galleries and your print-ready downloads. Add your favorites within 30 days. After that the rest are deleted.
What it costs
Premium members get their first set free. After that, a set is $9, charged once. If you have a card on your membership you can use it with one click, or enter a different card.
For comparison, BetterPic, one of the best-known AI headshot services, charges $35 to $79 a set at the time of writing. It is a good service and worth a look. Ours is built for actors, though, and the results land on your actor website, not in a download folder.
Use AI headshots wisely
An AI headshot should look like you on your best day, not like someone else. If a result changes your face, your age or your build, leave it out. Casting wants the person who walks into the room. Read our guide to a strong headshot before you choose, and check where your headshot should go once you have it.
