What photos to send for an AI photoshoot

Photos from different angles

Start with a straight-on photo and a three-quarter view, with your head turned slightly. Add a profile if the side view or hairstyle matters. Choose recent photos: if your haircut, hair colour or beard has changed, say which appearance to preserve. A relaxed expression and a natural smile can also help.

Face and figure

For a close portrait, face angles matter most. For waist-up or full-length images, a photo showing body proportions is useful. Choose everyday clothes and a comfortable pose. If a particular garment or accessory should appear in the result, show it separately and mention it in the brief.

Light and image quality

Choose clear photos in daylight, with your face unobstructed by hair, a hand or deep shadows. Phone photos are fine. Strong filters and retouching that change your features make it harder to understand your actual appearance. Try to avoid very close wide-angle selfies: they can make your nose and other features look unusually large. If you have the choice, send the original photo file instead of a screenshot from a chat or gallery. Screenshots often lose quality or crop the frame.

Style references

Your own photos show whose face and appearance the images should carry. Separate references help choose clothing, light, setting, mood or composition. You can share them as links; you do not need a reference for every angle. If you have a specific look in mind, point out which details matter and what can change.

How to share the materials

Describe the idea in the form below and add a reference link if useful. The form does not have photo uploads yet: source files are shared through an agreed channel after we discuss the task. We’ll first decide which photos your project needs.

Use photos you have the right to share, with the consent of anyone pictured.
