Why it makes sense to get AI ERAS Headshots

We help you appear personable, confident, and intelligent and give you photos with different backgrounds (White and Grey Options available) within one hour. You choose your favorite background that goes well with your skin tone, clothing, and hair color.

Faculty members like to see if you are professional, trustworthy, and take your career seriously.

The simple truth is that if your photo does not meet the AAMC's criteria, admissions will simply skip past your application. This is because they don't have time to read thousands of applications.

The good news, however, is that you can get studio-quality headshots without spending your time, money, and nerves on a photography session that'll get you the perfect look.

Plus you get your Own Photo Studio

Get Residency Headshots AI Background Editor and other tools. Customize any of your photos with BetterPic's AI Studio.

You can also request a new batch of headshots.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly are "eras" headshots and which decades can I pick?

Eras headshots turn your selfies into portraits styled after a specific time period or aesthetic — 80s yearbook, 90s grunge, 70s disco, Old Hollywood, Victorian oil-painting, Renaissance, Western, rockstar, astronaut, and more. Think of it as a themed photoshoot without the costumes, wigs, or location fee.

How closely do era portraits keep your likeness?

Themed generation only works if the face survives the styling — the period look is applied on top of your features, not instead of them. BetterPic trains on the 6–12 selfies you upload, so face, skin tone and features stay intact while hair, wardrobe, lighting and backdrop change to match the era.

How long does it take to get my eras headshots?

Most orders are delivered in under 60 minutes. Upload your selfies, pick your eras, grab a coffee, and your gallery will be ready by the time you finish it.

What does a themed photoshoot cost?

A costume or themed shoot with wardrobe, hair, makeup and studio rental typically runs $300–$800 and produces a single look for that money. BetterPic starts at $35 and covers multiple eras from one upload.

Where can era portraits be posted?

Anywhere you hold the rights to the image, which for generated portraits depends on the provider's licence. Every image you download from BetterPic is yours — post it, reel it, meme it, send it to the group chat. Tagging @betterpic is appreciated, not required.

Do eras headshots work as a gift?

They make a great birthday, anniversary, retirement, or bachelorette gift. Just have the recipient upload their selfies (or surprise them with a gift card) and let them pick whichever decades they love.

Can several eras be mixed in one order?

Nothing about the process ties an order to a single style: the model is trained once and can then generate across any number of looks. One BetterPic order returns 40+ portraits, and you can split them across eras — half 80s, half Renaissance, a disco shot in between.

Can I also use these as a regular profile picture, or are they strictly for fun?

Both work. Some people use a cleaner era (Old Hollywood, classic yearbook) as their actual profile photo, while others keep the wild ones (astronaut, rockstar) for fun posts. You decide.

Is a phone selfie good enough as input?

Casual, well-lit phone selfies are the intended input for this whole category — training needs variety far more than it needs optical quality. No DSLR, no studio and no professional lighting is required for BetterPic.

What happens to my photos — are they private?

Your uploads are encrypted, never sold or shared, and auto-deleted after 30 days. BetterPic is fully GDPR and CCPA compliant.

What happens if era portraits do not come out right?

Recourse varies by provider, from self-service editing to hand retouching to a refund. Every BetterPic order carries a 100% satisfaction guarantee: in-house editors hand-retouch any shot that is not right, or you get a full refund.

Can era portraits be printed and framed?

Print needs resolution that screen use does not — anything upscaled shows on a canvas or a poster. BetterPic delivers every output at 4K, so framed prints, canvases and posters hold up. A Victorian oil painting of yourself above the fireplace is very much an option.
