InstaHeadshots is still #1 on this desk. These are the hops when the job is not “LinkedIn in 15 minutes.”
You need 4K / print
BetterPic
True 4K. Skin and fabric hold at 100% crop. Slower than Insta. No exclusive coupon here.
You need a matching team
HeadshotPro
Matched lighting across a roster. Not the prettiest single frame. The consistent fifty.
You will not pay yet
APOB AI or Canva
Free keepers exist. They are drafts. Do not send them to a recruiter as the final file.
