AI headshots for consultants

For a consultant, the headshot is part of the pitch. It goes on the proposal, the pitch deck, the firm's website, the speaker page and the LinkedIn profile a prospective client checks before the first call. It has to carry credibility in a room you are not yet in.

Where you will use it

• Proposals and pitch decks, usually on the team slide beside colleagues.
• Your firm's website, on your bio page.
• LinkedIn, where clients and referrers look you up. LinkedIn headshots.
• Speaker pages, podcasts and articles you contribute to.
• Email signatures and scheduling links.

Dress for your clients, not your firm

The right clothes depend on who you advise. Advising banks, law firms or the public sector usually calls for a suit or a dark jacket. Advising startups, agencies or technology teams, a blazer over an open collar or a simple top is closer to the room. When in doubt, match the most formal client you work with.

Several looks, one set

Consultants often need two versions of themselves: a formal one for proposals and a more relaxed one for social posts and speaking. Choose more than one outfit and setting, and each picture in your set combines them differently, so one set covers both.

Which setting

• A library or a wall of books suits advisory, legal and financial work. Tell us you work in law or finance and your first pictures are taken beside a wall of books.
• A bright office suits strategy, operations and technology consulting.
• Plain studio grey is the safest choice for a firm's team page, where everybody should match.

For a small firm

If you want the team page to look consistent, agree on one setting and one level of formality, and each person chooses it for their own set. Everyone gets their own pictures, and the page still reads as one firm.

How it works

Upload 8 to 20 ordinary photos, choose your clothes, settings and light, and see one headshot of your own face free before you pay. See professional headshots for every other place a headshot is used, and how the AI headshot generator works.

Questions

Suit or blazer?

Match your clients. A suit for banking, law and government; a blazer over an open collar for most other work. You can have both in one set.

Can I use the pictures on client proposals?

Yes. They are photos of you, full size and without a watermark, for your proposals, website and profiles.

How do I keep my team's photos consistent?

Agree on one setting and one level of formality, and have each person choose it. Studio grey is the easiest to match.
