2/4 selected

Professional headshots live or die on subtle details: natural skin texture, realistic lighting, clean backgrounds, accurate facial features, and wardrobe that reads “corporate” without looking costume-like. Influencer Studio offers two strong options for generating and refining corporate headshots—Flux 2 and GPT-Image 1.5—each with a different edge depending on your workflow.

This comparison focuses specifically on corporate and professional headshot photography: generating polished, camera-like portraits; maintaining identity across variations; handling retouch-level edits; and balancing quality against credits per image.

Professional Headshot — Side-by-Side Results

Prompt

"A late-20s influencer with shoulder-length wavy brown hair wearing a smart-casual blazer over a plain white tee holds their phone at arm’s length for a selfie, looking slightly off-camera with a confident, approachable half-smile. Shot like an Instagram story “quick update” in a quiet coworking café corner against a clean light-grey wall, minimal background clutter for a headshot feel. Soft natural window light from the side, realistic phone-camera perspective, no glam retouching."

Flux 2 Strengths

  • Best for iterative headshot editing: strong image-to-image workflows for refining an existing portrait (lighting, background, wardrobe tweaks) without starting over
  • LoRA support for consistent “house style” headshots (e.g., matching a company’s look across teams) and repeatable brand aesthetics
  • Up to 4MP output helps preserve crisp facial detail for profile photos, websites, and larger crops
  • Versatile style transfer for producing multiple corporate looks (modern studio, outdoor corporate, executive editorial) from a single base
  • Face-swap support can help align identity across headshot variants when you need consistent likeness across poses and outfits

GPT-Image 1.5 Strengths

  • Strong prompt adherence for reliably hitting corporate requirements (neutral backdrop, soft key light, specific wardrobe, framing, expression)
  • High-fidelity generation that can produce clean, camera-like headshots from text prompts without needing a source image
  • Flexible quality tiers (low/medium/high) make it easy to choose quick drafts vs portfolio-ready outputs based on time and budget
  • Strong at detailed scene control when you want contextual professional environments (office, conference venue) while keeping the subject primary
  • Predictable results for standardized prompts, useful for batch-generating consistent headshot sets

Verdict

Choose Flux 2 when your headshot workflow is edit-heavy: you already have a base image (or a strong first pass) and need controlled refinements—background swaps, subtle retouching, wardrobe adjustments, or consistent styling across a team. Its LoRA support and editing versatility make it a strong fit for “production” headshot pipelines.

Choose GPT-Image 1.5 when you want high-quality corporate headshots directly from prompts with minimal iteration, or when prompt accuracy is your top priority. It’s also a good value for concepting at the low tier, then stepping up to medium/high for final selections.
