PortraitDirector
Direct your own studio portrait, don't just generate one
Most AI portrait tools are a slot machine: upload a selfie, pick a preset, hope. PortraitDirector hands you the controls instead. Move a real 3D lighting rig to place your key and fill exactly where you want them, then dial in expression, framing, wardrobe and backdrop before you generate. The result is a studio-grade portrait that still looks unmistakably like you — and one you can reproduce, so a whole team can share a consistent look.
Hello :)
I initially built this as a personal tool. I kept getting clients who needed consistent headshots of their team while handing me the absolute worst reference images they could find. I also had issues with inconsistency and light positioning, so I put together a system that can consistently and accurately light portraits.
A tool like that felt silly not to share (and monetize), so here it is! I hope it serves you all very well.
Happy to answer anything in the comments, and if you try it, I'd love to hear what you think.
