Start with a clear photo of yourself

Face a window or another soft light source, hold your camera at eye level, and include your shoulders. Use a recent image with your face in focus.

After generating, compare the details with your original. Keep natural-looking skin texture and choose a portrait you feel comfortable using on your profile.
