Pro Tips
Get the best results every time
Use natural, even lighting
Take your photo facing a window or in open shade. Even lighting helps the AI produce the cleanest edge separation, especially around hair.
Stand in front of a contrasting background
While SlickBG can handle any background, starting with a plain wall or sheet gives you the cleanest initial cutout with minimal touch-up needed.
Match the background to your purpose
LinkedIn and corporate headshots look best with light gray or navy blue. Use white for passport photos. A subtle gradient adds polish for personal branding.
Process team photos in bulk
Need headshots for your entire team? Use the Bulk Remover to process all team photos at once, then apply a consistent background color in the Bulk Editor.
