This is the part most comparisons quietly skip.

A photographer is the right call sometimes. So is a phone. We sell AI portraits and still believe both. Here is when each of the three actually wins.

Route 01

The DIY route

Your phone, your window, your patience

When it wins
  • You have good window light and 90 patient minutes
  • You enjoy the process and want full control
  • The photo is for low-stakes, internal use
  • Budget is the dominant constraint
Route 03

The photographer

Live direction, single flagship shoot

When it wins
  • One photo carries unusual weight: a book jacket, magazine feature, campaign
  • You want live coaching and candid moments captured
  • You photograph stiffly and need a human to coax expression
  • Budget genuinely is not a meaningful constraint

Pricing questions

Everything you need to know.

Each team member completes their own upload independently and you receive a coordinated set of employee headshots with a unified style. Contact us for custom team pricing.
A photographer typically charges $200 to $500+ for a single session. Our plans start at $8 for a quick single look, or from $19.99 for curated packages — ready in minutes, with no scheduling.
You do, fully and permanently, with full commercial usage rights on every plan. Uploaded selfies are deleted within 7 days and generated portraits within 30 days, or immediately on request.
Every plan carries a 100% money-back guarantee. Professional and Executive plans also include a free redo, so you can run the process again with different selfies for a better result.
