Face Swap AI makes a professional headshot from one selfie. Pick an office, studio or executive portrait, add your selfie, and your face goes into a properly lit headshot in a few seconds. You see exactly which look you're getting before you start, and you can try as many as you like.

Below: how it compares with headshot generators that train on a batch of your photos, and which templates work best for LinkedIn, CVs and team pages.

Headshot templates that look like a real photo shoot

  • Smart Casual and Minimalist: chest-up portraits with plain, soft backgrounds. The safest picks for LinkedIn. See Smart Casual.
  • Tech Startup CEO: blazer, open-plan office. See the template.
  • Investment Banker: suit and tie, trading floor. See the template.
  • Bestselling Author: warm, friendly portraits for bios and book pages. See the template.

One selfie vs. a 20-photo headshot generator

Batch headshot generatorFace Swap AI
Photos neededUsually 10–20 selfiesOne selfie
Waiting timeOften 20 minutes or moreA few seconds per headshot
Choosing the lookRandom results to sort throughPick the exact template first
Looks like youVaries image to imageUses your real face
Cost to tryUsually a one-off batch fee$2.99 for 15 swaps, one-time

The trade-off: you choose from ready-made portraits instead of getting dozens of new compositions. For a professional photo, a handful of well-chosen, realistic options is usually what you want.

Take a selfie that makes a good headshot

  1. Face a window in daylight, with no lamp behind you.
  2. Hold the phone at eye level, or prop it up and use the timer.
  3. Use the 1x lens. Wide-angle selfies distort the nose at close range.
  4. Relax and smile a little, as if you're on a video call.
  5. Take a few and keep the sharpest.

Keep it honest for work

A recruiter or client will see you on a call soon, so pick a template with hair close to yours and stay near your real age. The goal is a better-lit, better-dressed you. There are more tips in our guide to making a headshot from a selfie.

Questions

How much does an AI headshot cost here?

The starter pack is $2.99 for 15 swaps, paid once with no subscription, so you can try several templates and selfies and keep the best. Regular users can choose PRO at $9.99 a month.

Can I use the headshot commercially, for example on a company website?

You can use results of your own face for your profile, CV or team page. Template photos show AI-generated people, so you're not using anyone else's likeness.
