We light it with available daylight only, no studio modifiers, motivated and naturalistic and grade it natural skin tones preserved exactly, no beauty retouch, pores and freckles and small marks retained, ambient film grain. It reads as no filter. looks like you., and it's generated from a single selfie in about 60 seconds.

Authentic Me headshots: FAQ

Is the Authentic Me style free?

Yes. You get 3 watermarked Authentic Me headshots a day for free, with no signup and no credit card. The one-time packs ($9 for 30 photos, $19 for 100 in Full HD, $49 for 300) remove the watermark and unlock all 100+ styles.

How many photos do I upload for a Authentic Me headshot?

Just one selfie. FreeHeadshot runs on Google Gemini 2.5 Flash Image, which reads your face straight from a single photo, so there's no model training and no 20-photo upload. You can add up to 5 for slightly better results.

What should I wear for the Authentic Me look?

Nothing special. We render the subject's own wardrobe style as one might actually wear — no glow-up, no upgrade for you, so upload any clear, well-lit selfie and we handle the wardrobe, lighting, and setting.

How long does it take, and where can I use my Authentic Me headshot?

About 60 seconds for the free 3-pack. The Authentic Me look is built for LinkedIn, resumes, team pages, and social profiles. It is not valid for passports or government ID, which require an unedited photograph.
