Turn selfies into a pro headshot with Ultron: the prompt pack

A few phone selfies plus one key line is all Ultron needs to rebuild a professional headshot that still looks unmistakably like you, in about thirty

A few phone selfies plus one key line is all Ultron needs to rebuild a professional headshot that still looks unmistakably like you, in about thirty seconds.

Most people pay a couple hundred dollars for headshots, or miss the company photoshoot and end up with nothing. Ultron turns a handful of phone selfies into a polished, professional set without a studio or a booking. Below is the main prompt, a team-matching prompt, three more looks, and a full casual cinematic set, all built to keep your real face.

The main prompt

What it does: locks your real face while Ultron rebuilds the lighting, lens, wardrobe, and background like a real studio shoot. The "keep my face exactly the same" line is the part that stops it inventing a stranger.

Use it when: you need a clean, professional headshot for LinkedIn, a website, or a work profile.

Heads up: give Ultron clear, recent photos (garbage in, garbage out), and it can drift on small details, so generate a few and pick the truest one.

Prompt
Here are 3 to 4 photos of me. Create one 1:1, ultra-realistic 4K corporate headshot of the same person. Keep my face, bone structure, skin texture, and hairline exactly the same, do not beautify or smooth my features. Lighting: soft key from a large window at 45 degrees, gentle fill, a subtle rim light to separate me from the background. Lens: 85mm at f2, shallow depth of field, eyes tack sharp. Wardrobe: a well-fitted navy blazer over a crisp white shirt. Background: clean neutral grey, softly blurred. Expression: natural and confident, slight smile, looking just past the camera. Finish it colour-graded like a real photo, no plastic skin, no AI sheen.

Match your whole team

What it does: rebuilds your headshot in a teammate's exact lighting, background, and crop so the two look shot in the same session.

Use it when: you joined after the company photoshoot, or your team page looks inconsistent.

Heads up: you need one real team headshot to match to, and check the result actually sits next to theirs before you use it.

Prompt
Here are 3 to 4 photos of me, plus one real headshot of a teammate to match. Create one 1:1, ultra-realistic 4K headshot of me that looks shot in the exact same session as the teammate's photo. Match their lighting direction and softness, their background colour and blur, the crop and how large the head sits in the frame, the colour grade, and the overall mood as closely as possible. Wardrobe: match the formality of their outfit (for example a navy blazer or a smart neutral top) without copying the exact clothes. Keep my face, bone structure, skin texture, and hairline exactly the same, do not beautify or smooth. Lens: 85mm at f2, eyes tack sharp. Finish it colour-graded like a real photo, no plastic skin, no AI sheen. If anything is ambiguous, prioritise matching the lighting and background so the two sit side by side cleanly.

Three more looks

Same face, different vibe. Run any of these after the main prompt to build options for different platforms.

Three more looks3 prompts
1

Warm casual

Warm casual. Here are 3 to 4 photos of me. Create one 1:1 ultra-realistic 4K portrait of the same person, relaxed and approachable. Keep my face, bone structure, skin texture, and hairline exactly the same, do not beautify. Lighting: soft, warm window light, gentle and flattering. Lens: 85mm at f2, shallow depth of field. Wardrobe: a casual crewneck or soft knit in a neutral tone. Background: a warm, out-of-focus office or cafe in cream and wood tones. Expression: natural and friendly, a real smile. Finish: colour-graded like a real photo, no plastic skin, no AI sheen.

2

Cinematic editorial

Cinematic editorial. Here are 3 to 4 photos of me. Create one 4:5 ultra-realistic cinematic portrait of the same person, editorial magazine mood. Keep my face exactly the same, do not beautify. Look: shot on a 35mm film camera, subtle film grain, warm practical lighting like a lamp or window glow, moody but flattering, shallow depth of field. Wardrobe: a simple, elevated top in a neutral or earthy tone. Background: a softly lit interior with depth, blurred. Expression: calm and confident, looking slightly off camera. Finish: cinematic colour grade, gentle contrast, real skin texture, no AI sheen.

3

Founder / personal brand

Founder / personal brand. Here are 3 to 4 photos of me. Create one 1:1 ultra-realistic portrait of the same person for a personal-brand or founder profile. Keep my face exactly the same, do not beautify. Lighting: a clean soft key with a subtle rim light. Lens: 85mm at f2, eyes tack sharp. Wardrobe: smart-casual, a blazer over a tee or a structured neutral top. Background: warm cream with a hint of paper texture, softly blurred. Expression: warm, direct, approachable confidence. Finish: natural colour grade, real skin, no AI sheen.

The casual cinematic set

What it does: generates a whole colour-matched set in one go, so you get a cohesive feed or about-page lineup, not one lonely headshot.

Use it when: you want a personal-brand set that looks shot in one session
Here are 3 to 4 photos of me. From the same face, generate a colour-matched SET of three casual cinematic portraits that look shot in one session: (1) a relaxed seated shot with a warm cafe or desk background, (2) a standing half-body shot near a window with soft natural light, (3) a closer portrait with shallow depth and a hint of bokeh. Across all three, keep my face, skin texture, and hairline exactly the same, use the same warm cinematic colour grade, the same wardrobe (a casual neutral knit or a relaxed blazer), a 35mm film look with subtle grain, and consistent soft lighting, so the three sit together as one set. No plastic skin, no AI sheen.

How to get the most out of it

  • Give Ultron 3 to 4 clear, recent photos from slightly different angles, even lighting, no heavy filters.
  • Keep the "keep my face exactly the same" line in every prompt.
  • New to this? Run the main prompt as-is and pick your favourite. More advanced? Chain a variation right after ("now the same face as a casual version") to build a whole set in one go.

The honest bit

AI headshots can still drift on eyes, teeth, and hairline, so check those before you use one, and pick the version that looks like you on a good real day, not the most airbrushed one. Some employers and platforms prefer real photos, so use your judgment on where an AI headshot fits.

Run this on autopilot.

Everything in this guide becomes an agent inside Ultron: set it up once, keep it running. You review, it executes.
