How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Drop your image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Any casual photo works - the AI will make it professional and firm-ready for your architectural practice.

    Expect: Simple headshots: 15-30 seconds. Complex lighting adjustments: may need 2-3 refinements.
  2. Describe your headshot style

    Type your instruction: 'create a professional architect headshot with clean background' or 'make this look like an architectural firm partner photo with professional attire and confident expression.' Be specific about background, attire, and professional appearance. No marking needed—the AI understands architectural professional requirements.

    Tip: Include specific details like 'with modern architectural setting' or 'clean minimalist background' for better results

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Architectural firm website headshot create a professional architect headshot with clean white background and confident expression in business attire
    Principal architect profile transform into professional architect headshot with modern minimal background and authoritative presence
    LinkedIn architect profile create LinkedIn-ready architect headshot with clean background and approachable professional appearance
    AIA directory photo create formal architect headshot with neutral background and professional architectural industry appearance

    Design competition profile create modern architect headshot with subtle architectural background and creative professional styling
    Urban planning headshot transform into professional urban planner headshot with clean background and thoughtful authoritative expression
  3. Generate and review

    The AI creates your professional architect headshot. Check the lighting looks natural, background is clean, and the overall appearance meets firm standards at full zoom.

  4. Refine with markers if needed

    If lighting needs adjustment or the background isn't perfect, tap markers on those specific areas and regenerate. This is optional—most headshots work without markers.

    Tip: Markers are for precision refinement, not a required step. Try without them first.

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from description alone. This happens with ambiguous requests.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific area you want to change, then regenerate with the same prompt

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS one specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Background isn't clean enough or has distracting elements

Why: Complex backgrounds require more specific prompts about the desired background type.

Try: Use 'replace background with solid white' or 'create clean minimal background'

Tip: Be specific about background style - 'white', 'gray', or 'minimal' work better than 'clean'.

Lighting looks unnatural or harsh

Why: The original photo's lighting conflicts with professional headshot standards.

Try: Add 'with soft professional lighting' or 'with natural office lighting' to your prompt

Tip: Professional headshots need even, flattering lighting that doesn't cast harsh shadows.

Attire doesn't look professional enough

Why: The AI needs specific guidance about professional architectural attire expectations.

Try: Specify 'in business attire' or 'wearing professional architectural industry clothing'

Tip: Architects typically wear business casual to formal attire, often with clean modern styling.

Expression looks too casual or not authoritative

Why: Architectural headshots require a balance of creativity, approachability and professional authority.

Try: Add 'with confident professional expression' or 'with trustworthy creative presence'

Tip: Architect headshots should convey both technical competence and creative vision.

Overall appearance doesn't match architectural industry standards

Why: Different industries have varying professional appearance expectations.

Try: Add 'for architectural firm' or 'with modern design professional styling' to your prompt

Tip: Architectural professionals often embrace more modern, design-forward styling than traditional corporate looks.
