LinkedIn headshot prompt: turn a selfie into a pro photo
This prompt turns a selfie into a professional LinkedIn headshot. It keeps your face, hairstyle and expression, swaps in the outfit you choose, softly blurs a clean background and uses flattering studio light with natural skin texture instead of a plastic look.

The prompt
Turn this selfie into a professional LinkedIn headshot. Keep my face, facial features, skin tone, hairstyle, and expression exactly the same — it must clearly be me. Change my outfit to [OUTFIT, e.g. a navy blue blazer with a white shirt]. Use a clean, softly blurred [BACKGROUND, e.g. light grey studio] background. Flattering soft studio light, natural skin texture (not plastic).
Pro tip: Use a front-facing selfie taken in daylight with no beauty filters for the most accurate face.
