A good work photo needs a plain background, even light and clothes that fit the job. These five prompts cover a speaker shot at a podium, a relaxed full-body studio portrait and three chest-up headshots on light gray, useful for a company bio, a conference page or a résumé site.

You can open each template in Reshot AI with a selfie, or copy the prompt and use it in another tool. Most of these prompts ask to keep your current hairstyle, so the result stays close to how you look day to day.

How these templates use your photo

Each template starts from a photo you pick. The prompt tells the model what to change, and your photo is the reference for everything else. Clear, front-facing photos with even light give the closest match.
