Secta Labs: How to generate professional headshots with AI

By Hannah Miet

 

I created hundreds of headshots in two hours...

 

While some of them are flukes due to the nascent nature of visual generative AI, some are creepily accurate, so much so that I can use them in all kinds of marketing materials for my B2B content agency.

 

AI-generated headshots offer several benefits:

  • Consistency: Achieve a consistent look across different professional settings
  • Time-Efficiency: Create hundreds of high-quality headshots in minutes
  • Cost-Effectiveness: Save on traditional photography costs: While I find AI headshots work better when you have photos from a professional human photographer, they can save you returning for new headshots whenever you need a differentiated photo
  •  

It was easy: I just uploaded photos of myself to Secta Labs. Their AI generated hundreds of headshots, some of which I edited in minutes using Secta’s “remix” tool. 

Why Commercial Real Estate Professionals Need Differentiated Headshots

In the commercial real estate industry, first impressions are crucial. Whether you’re a broker, property manager, developer, syndicator, or investor, your headshot is often the first point of contact with potential clients and partners. Having a variety of professional headshots is essential for maintaining a versatile and dynamic personal brand across various platforms and properties.

 

  • Brokers: Need headshots that convey authority and expertise. Different headshots can tailor their image to high-net-worth individuals, corporate clients, investors, or the brand of a specific property.

 

  • Property Managers: Should reflect reliability and competence. Formal shots for corporate communications and casual ones for tenant interactions.

 

  • Developers and Investors: Benefit from headshots that highlight confidence and a forward-thinking attitude, useful for media appearances and investor meetings.

 

  • Investment Analysts: Need to communicate precision and intelligence in their headshots, suitable for industry reports and conferences.

 

  • Marketing and Sales Teams: We require headshots that radiate energy and enthusiasm. These will be used across digital ads, LinkedIn, and brochures. Our headshots should be differentiated and in line with our brand guidelines to visually show our expertise.

 

  • Executive Leadership: Must exude leadership and confidence and be adaptable for annual reports, media interviews, and speaking engagements.
