Make it in TelegramThe prompt behind this style
Turn this casual photo into a professional LinkedIn headshot. Keep the face, facial features, skin tone and hairstyle exactly as they are, do not change the person's appearance. Replace the clothing with a dark blazer over a plain shirt, replace the background with a softly blurred neutral office or light gray studio backdrop, soft even lighting, natural skin, friendly confident expression. Vertical 3:4, head and shoulders, no text.
What a LinkedIn photo needs
Recruiters look at a small circle, so the face must be large, well lit and friendly. The prompt keeps your features and skin tone, replaces the clothing with a dark blazer over a plain shirt, and blurs the background into a quiet office or light gray studio. Framing is head and shoulders, which fits the round crop used on profiles.
Source photo checklist
Use a recent picture with your normal expression. Remove sunglasses and hats. Avoid heavy filters, because they change the face before the AI even starts. A sharp photo sent as a file gives more detail than a compressed one. If you wear glasses in everyday life, keep them on so the result matches how people meet you.
Honest expectations
The AI should not change who you are, but small drift is possible, especially around the eyes, teeth and hairline. Compare the headshot with your face in the mirror. Do not use it where official ID rules apply. Some employers dislike heavily edited faces, so keep retouching natural. A rerun costs 2 credits if the first image feels off.
Tips
- Face the window or a lamp so both sides of the face are lit evenly.
- Hold the phone at eye level, not from below, to avoid a double chin look.
- Choose a plain background in the source; mess behind you can leak into the result.
- Ask for a clothing color in the caption if blazer black is not your style.
- If the skin looks too smooth, rerun and add: keep natural skin texture.
