LinkedIn headshot prompts

A professional headshot without booking a studio. Upload a clear, well-lit photo and these prompts put you in a blazer, in front of a soft office or studio background, with flattering light.

Recruiters see your photo before your name, so a friendly, natural look works better than a heavily retouched one.

How to get a headshot that looks like you

Questions people ask

Is it okay to use an AI headshot on LinkedIn?

Many people do, but it should still look like you. Avoid edits that change your face, age or features, and check your employer's rules if you are unsure.

Which prompt is best for a LinkedIn profile picture?

The LinkedIn office headshot for men or women, with the 1:1 ratio. The studio headshot prompt is a good plain alternative.

Can I change the blazer colour?

Yes. Change the colour words in the prompt before you copy, or use the Outfit option in the customiser on the prompt page.

Do these work in ChatGPT too?

Yes. They are plain text, so they work in ChatGPT and most image tools that accept a reference photo.
