Premium Portraits launches an AI platform that generates professional business headshots from user-uploaded selfies.
The Swiss startup combines AI technology with 20 years of professional photography expertise.
Users receive up to 200 realistic portraits in 15 minutes to two hours, depending on the package.
The service is designed for LinkedIn profiles, resumes, and corporate branding.
It offers a 24/7, accessible, and affordable alternative to traditional photoshoots.
Users can select from various backgrounds and clothing styles to match personal or corporate brand needs.
The launch addresses a common professional need—a high-quality headshot—by removing traditional barriers of cost, scheduling, and location. Premium Portraits’ platform is engineered to make professional-grade portrait imagery accessible to a wider audience, including students, job seekers, and companies looking to standardize their team's professional appearance without the logistical overhead of coordinating photoshoots.
The startup’s value proposition is rooted in combining technological innovation with deep domain knowledge. Phil Jeker, Founder and CEO of Premium Portraits, stated, “A professional portrait is often the first impression—whether on LinkedIn, a resume, or a company website. Having worked as a professional portrait photographer for over 20 years, I know what makes a strong image. With Premium Portraits, we’ve built a solution that brings that level of quality within reach for many more people, and we continue to refine and improve the platform as we grow.”
The service utilizes advanced artificial intelligence models trained on principles of professional portrait photography. Users upload a series of selfies taken with a smartphone, and the AI generates a wide array of headshot options. The platform provides customization features, allowing users to choose from different backgrounds (e.g., studio, office) and clothing styles to align with their personal or corporate branding. This process aims to deliver not just a technically correct image, but one that adheres to the compositional and aesthetic standards expected in professional contexts.
Positioned as a SaaS solution, Premium Portraits enters a growing market for AI-enhanced professional services. Its key differentiators are the speed of delivery—results in as little as 15 minutes—and the founder's direct photography expertise embedded in the AI's training. The platform promises significant time and cost savings compared to booking a photographer, traveling to a studio, and waiting for edits, making it a practical tool for individuals and HR departments managing employer branding at scale.
