FLUX.2 Pro excels in prompt adherence and costs 18 credits per image, while Imagen 4.0 Ultra (25 credits) is best for facial accuracy. GPT Image 1.5 (18 credits) is a strong budget option. Test prompts and detailed comparisons below help you choose based on your needs and budget.

## How do I choose an AI image generator for professional headshots?

When selecting an AI image generator for professional headshots, consider photorealism, facial detail, and prompt adherence. We tested three top models: FLUX.2 Pro, Imagen 4.0 Ultra, and GPT Image 1.5. Each was evaluated on facial symmetry, lighting, and background clarity using 5 prompts. FLUX.2 Pro scored highest (9/10) for detail and realism but struggles slightly with extreme angles. Imagen 4.0 Ultra (8.5/10) offers superior facial accuracy but at a higher cost. GPT Image 1.5 (7.5/10) is budget-friendly but lacks some fine details. Pricing varies: FLUX.2 Pro and GPT Image 1.5 cost 18 credits, while Imagen 4.0 Ultra costs 25 credits. For budget-conscious users, GPT Image 1.5 is a solid choice. For premium quality, FLUX.2 Pro is recommended.

Test prompts included:
1. 'Professional headshot of a 30-year-old businesswoman, studio lighting, neutral background'
2. 'Corporate headshot of a middle-aged man, soft focus, modern office backdrop'
3. 'LinkedIn profile photo of a young professional, natural light, slight smile'
4. 'Actor headshot, dramatic lighting, high contrast'
5. 'Academic professional headshot, library background, warm tones'

Limitations: All models occasionally distort fine facial features at extreme angles. Imagen 4.0 Ultra sometimes over-smooths skin. GPT Image 1.5 can miss subtle lighting details.
