The Photo Is Already on Your Phone
You took a selfie last month. Maybe at your desk. Maybe in the car before a meeting. The light was decent. You looked like yourself.
It just doesn’t look like a headshot.
Selfie to Headshot closes that gap. You send me that selfie. I send back a set of lifelike, studio-style headshots, with clean light, clean backgrounds, and the polish a LinkedIn profile expects.
Lifelike. Not AI-Looking.
Most AI headshot apps hand you something that looks like AI. Plastic skin. Hair that melts into the background. A face that’s almost yours. People notice, even when they can’t say why.
Mine look like photographs. Real skin texture. Real hair. Light that falls the way it does in a studio. Forty years of looking at faces, built into proprietary prompts I developed myself.
You, on Your Best Day
For years, clients have sat beside me at the screen while I retouched their portraits. They don’t ask for a different face. They ask me to straighten a lazy eye, take off a few pounds, soften the tired look.
So when you order, tell me what you’d like refined. A lazy eye. A little slimmer. Stray hairs. Under-eye shadows. Ask for nothing, and your headshots come back natural.
Through all of it, one rule holds. I call it Likeness Lock: you stay recognizably you. Never a stranger. Never a different face.
Built for Your Job, Not a Template
Most AI headshot apps run every face through the same settings. Mine don’t.
So when you order, I ask what you do, the position you hold, and why you need the headshot. A promotion. A new company website. A profile listing. A trial lawyer and a pediatric nurse shouldn’t get the same headshot, and they won’t.
Joining a team page? Send me the link. I’ll match the background and light so your headshot sits naturally next to everyone else’s.
Honest About What It Is
Your finished headshots are AI-generated, and they’re labeled that way. They are not studio photographs, and I won’t present them as such.
What it does have is a photographer behind it. I’m Aric Hoek. I’ve spent forty years photographing faces, and I review every headshot myself before it goes out.
How It Works
- Place your order. A set of headshots, $125 plus sales tax. Tell me what you do, where the headshots are going, and anything you’d like refined.
- Upload your selfie. Right after checkout, you’ll get an email with a private upload link.
- Get your headshots. I build them, check each one, and deliver them in a private online gallery.
The Selfie That Works Best
- A recent selfie
- No filters, no beauty mode, no portrait-mode blur
- Your whole face in view, facing the camera
- Soft daylight from a window
A second selfie from a different angle helps. It’s optional.
When to Come to the Studio Instead
If you can get to Houston, come sit for me. An in-studio session gives you a real photograph, made with you in the room and approved by you before you leave. That is still the best headshot I make.
Selfie to Headshot is for when the studio isn’t an option. You’re in another city. The deadline is Friday. Or you need something better than what you’re using right now.
