What is Magic Studio?
Magic Studio (formerly InstaHeadshots) is an AI photo service. You upload at least 10 clear, recent solo photos, ideally a mix of close-ups and waist-up shots with varied outfits, backgrounds and lighting. The service uses them to build a personal AI model that learns your face, hair and features.
Once the model is ready, it generates 50 watermarked preview photos, and you are emailed when they are done. You can start with professional headshots, then use credits to explore more looks from its professional, social and dating collections, or create more images in a style you already like. The site also lists headshot pages for LinkedIn, real estate, doctors and lawyers, plus some photo tools such as background removal and an AI image generator.
