In short: you upload a few of your selfies, the AI learns your face and builds a personal model of you, then generates new, professional portraits from it — in the outfit, background and framing you choose. It's not a filter slapped on one photo or a background swap; the system genuinely "learns" your features from several shots and builds realistic new images from them. Below we walk through the whole process step by step — no technical jargon.
The process has three stages. First you upload a few sharp selfies from different angles. Then the AI learns your face — it analyses your shape, features and proportions and builds your individual model. Finally it generates new portraits from that model in professional quality: good lighting, a neutral or business background, the right framing. You pick the best shots and download them ready to use.
From a single photo the AI sees only one angle, one light and one expression — which makes mistakes and an "averaged" face more likely. Several shots from different sides, in different light and with different expressions let the model learn you, not one situation. So the better and more varied your selfie set, the stronger the likeness and the more natural the result.
The whole process is online and fast: you usually have finished portraits within under an hour of uploading, with an email when your set is ready. You pay once upfront, no subscription — a fraction of a photographer's price, and in return you get a whole set of shots in different setups.
A well-made AI headshot has realistic skin with visible texture, natural lighting and your real features — not a "plastic" look. Quality depends mostly on the input: sharp, well-lit selfies with your face clearly visible. Weak, blurry or very similar photos give a weaker result. It's a bit like working with a photographer — the better the start, the better the portrait.
A fair question, since you're uploading your likeness. At LookTwin your selfies are used only to generate your portraits — we don't share them, we don't train general models on them, and we delete the files after a set period. We process data under GDPR, and AI photos are also labelled in the file metadata as EU rules require.
A few simple rules: upload several sharp photos from different angles, in good light (daylight is best), with your face uncovered. Avoid sunglasses, hats, heavy filters, group photos and very old shots where you look different. The more varied the set — different expressions, backgrounds, outfits — the better the model learns you specifically.
A filter applies an effect to one existing photo. AI learns your face from several selfies and generates entirely new shots in professional quality — with new lighting, background and framing.
Usually a handful of sharp photos from different angles. The more varied the set, the stronger the likeness and the more natural the result.
Yes — the model learns your real features. With good selfies you keep the likeness; mainly the lighting, background and framing change.
Usually within under an hour of uploading. We'll email you as soon as your set is ready.
