Prompt for the model

Use the person in the uploaded photo. Keep their face exactly the same: same facial features, skin tone, age, hairline, eye shape and natural lines - do not beautify, slim, de-age or change their ethnicity. Create a professional corporate headshot: head and shoulders, body slightly angled, face toward the camera, natural confident smile, wearing [a navy blazer over a plain white shirt]. Background: [softly blurred modern office in warm neutral tones]. Soft key light from the left, gentle fill, subtle rim light, 85mm lens look, shallow depth of field, natural skin texture with visible pores. Photorealistic, no text, no watermark.

Replace the gold [bracketed] parts to match your own product, space or brand.

Keep unchanged

The prompt tells the model not to change these. Check the result anyway: these are the parts that break most often.

Skin tone
Age
Hairline
Personal details such as earrings and glasses

When not to use it

Don't use it with someone else's photo: only your own photo or that of a teammate who has given permission. Don't use it for official documents such as ID cards, passports or ID photos; the photo there must be real.

If the result has slimmed your face, made you look younger or made you look like someone else, don't use it: anyone who knows you will notice the difference, and it will cost you trust.

What it does and how to adapt it

Turns an ordinary phone photo into a corporate headshot for your team page, Google Business Profile or LinkedIn. Upload your photo and paste the prompt. The prompt explicitly tells the model not to change the face, not to beautify it and not to alter the person's age; that is exactly the most common complaint.

Replace the parts in square brackets: the outfit (e.g. your own work clothes instead of the navy blazer) and the background (an office, the inside of your shop, a plain studio). A photo taken from the front in daylight preserves the face best.

What happened across attempts: On the first attempt, the facial features, eyebrows and earrings were preserved; the face was not slimmed and the age was not altered. The hair was pulled back and the lighting changed. Input and output were checked side by side.

Even with the same prompt and the same settings, you won't get an identical result: models generate something different every time. The example shows what kind of result this prompt produces; it is not a guarantee.
