Questions
Everything people ask us.
If something is not here, email support@headshotdp.com and a person will answer.
Getting your pictures
How does it work?
You upload 8 or more photos of yourself, choose the kind of pictures you want, and we build a model of your face and photograph it. You pick a pack, we photograph you, and you choose your favourites from the set that comes back.
Do you make Diwali pictures?
Diwali family portraits open soon — see the scenes and join the list on Diwali portraits. A festive headshot in a saree, kurta or Nehru jacket is open now.
Where can I use these?
Anywhere you need a picture of yourself: your WhatsApp or Instagram DP, a CV, a company page, a profile. You download full-size pictures with no watermark. Most of those places show your photo as a circle, so pick one where your face sits in the middle of the frame.
How long does it take?
About 20 minutes. You can close the tab — we email you when your pictures are ready, and the page picks up where it left off.
What photos should I upload?
Ordinary phone photos are fine. Different days, different clothes and different places matter far more than any of them being good. Avoid sunglasses, hats, group shots and heavy filters — they confuse the likeness more than anything else.
Will it actually look like me?
That is the whole point, and it is the thing we optimise for over everything else. The model is built from your photos alone. If your uploads are all from one day in one outfit, expect the results to look like that day.
Paying
What does it cost?
Nothing to see your first one: a free preview of your own face, no card. Then ₹799 for 8 HD headshots, ₹1,499 for 16, or ₹1,999 for 24 at launch prices until December 31, 2026, each chosen from more previews than you keep. Every plan is HD — big enough to print, not just to post. You pay once, before we start.
When am I actually charged?
When you choose your pack, before we start. That is not us being keen — the pack decides how many previews we make and how large they come out, so we cannot begin until we know which one you want. If your pictures never arrive you get your money back automatically, without having to ask.
What if I do not like any of them?
Change your outfits, settings or lighting and shoot 6 more for ₹299 — your model is already built, so nothing is trained again. You can do that twice.
What if something goes wrong after I have paid?
You get your money back automatically. If a set fails after we have charged for it, the refund happens on its own — you do not have to notice it or ask us for it.
Your photos
What happens to my photos?
They are used to build your model and nothing else. They are never used to train anything of ours, never shown to anyone, and never sold or shared. Everything — your uploads, the model, and every picture it made — is deleted 30 days after you upload.
Can I delete everything sooner?
Yes, at any time, from your order page. It is immediate and permanent, so download anything you want first.
Can other people see my pictures?
No. Previews and finished pictures are only reachable while you are signed in, and the full-resolution files are never sent to a browser before they are paid for.
Why us
How is this different from the other headshot sites?
Most of them optimise for a picture that looks impressive. We optimise for one that looks like you — real skin, real texture, no plastic smoothing — because a profile picture that flatters you but is not recognisably you is worse than no picture at all.
Why do the previews have a watermark across them?
So the free look is genuinely a look and not a delivery. Pay for the ones you want and you get them clean, at full size.
Do I need an account?
No password, no sign-up form. We email you a code, and that is it.
