How I Created a Professional Headshot Without Leaving My Bedroom

I’ve been experimenting with Google's Nano Banana to edit my photos in different situations so I don’t always have to step out just to get new shots.

For this one, I wanted a specific look that tied back to a story I shared on LinkedIn about how I got into photography. That’s why I used the prompt below.

This process literally saved me about an hour and I did not spend time, stressing over finding the best spot or outfits. I did this in my bedroom, and you and the good thing is so can you.

Here’s the exact prompt I used 👇

"Transform this photo into a professional-casual headshot in black and white. Maintain a creative and artistic vibe, as if the subject is a photographer. Emphasize natural lighting on the face, soft background blur, clean composition, and subtle contrast. Retain the black-and-white film aesthetic, while keeping the subject approachable, confident, and stylish."
