Dan reached out for some fresh headshot updates for his website and LinkedIn page to help him stand out in Phoenix- a friendly face and a real business portrait set you up with an edge above professionals who use fake AI headshots or cell phone pics from their friends wedding!

While in person headshots can seem like a hassle to plan for and awkward to sit through, I make the whole process easy and relatively pain free! AI-generated headshots can look super polished, they definitely lack that “human” depth and warmth that real photos bring.
The psychological factor is real—knowing it's AI even if it ‘looks’ real it feels like something is off, even if the image looks perfect. Those AI headshots use your photo to match with bits and pieces of other peoples portraits- images often stolen from other businesses and photographers. Once I saw one with a well know photographers signitures smooshed up in the corner. even the reall good AI you pay for uses Frankensteined parts of other peoples photos.
Honestly, most people will not and do not care. It really depends on your character. If you are using a headshot to promote yourself in your career, AI photos give off the impression you are vain or lying, or just too lazy for a real headshot. Do you want folks to perceive you as someone who looks perfect, but seems a bit off? Don’t start off a potential business relationship with a lie.
I can make it easy, authentic, and professional- all are great qualities companies and clients are looking for!
