Make it in TelegramThe prompt behind this style
Turn this photo into a startup founder headshot. Keep the face, features and expression exactly recognizable. A dark crew neck sweater or an open collar shirt, a blurred modern office with glass and plants behind, soft natural window light, confident relaxed look, realistic photo. Vertical 3:4, no text.
A modern founder look
The prompt gives you the look many startup sites use: casual clothes instead of a suit, an office with glass and greenery out of focus, and soft window light. The expression is relaxed and confident. The portrait is vertical 3:4 with no text and no logos. It suits an about page, a pitch deck, a podcast guest card or a social profile for a product launch.
Getting a believable photo
Natural looking results come from natural source photos. Use a front-facing shot with good daylight and a neutral or lightly smiling face. Mention the clothes you want so the AI does not guess. If the result looks too polished, add a caption such as: more natural skin, no retouching look. Check small details like collars and hairline for odd shapes.
Honest use
The result is an AI generated image based on your photo, not a real photograph. Some investors, platforms or press outlets may expect a real photo, so say clearly that the image is AI generated where it matters, and use a real photo where honesty is expected. Rerun for 2 credits if the face looks different from you. When the image arrives, look at the eyes and the hairline first, since that is where drift shows up most.
Tips
- Send a bright front-facing photo with the shoulders in the frame.
- Choose the outfit in the caption: sweater, open collar shirt or jacket.
- Skip heavy beauty filters on the source photo, since the face is rebuilt from it.
- Ask for a different background if glass offices do not match your brand.
- Compare the face with your real look, especially age, hairline and eye shape.
