You don't need to take an afternoon off work to get a professional headshot. UK-built AI headshots, delivered to your inbox in two hours, from £29 — without setting foot in a Glasgow studio.
Why Glasgow professionals are picking Profyle: studios in central Glasgow typically charge £150-300 for a one-hour session, plus the cost of getting there, plus a week's wait for edits. Profyle delivers 50+ professional headshots in two hours from £29, all from your phone. UK-hosted. UK GDPR. 7-day full refund if it doesn't land.
Why this works for Glasgow
Glasgow's professional base spans engineering and shipbuilding heritage (BAE Systems, Babcock), a strong financial services back-office presence (Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase have major operations), the Scottish creative industries cluster, and one of the UK's larger university research economies (University of Glasgow, University of Strathclyde). The Glasgow professional headshot brief tends to tilt slightly less formal than Edinburgh — friendlier, more approachable — and Profyle's styling reflects that distinction. Same model, different prompt tune.

What Glasgow customers use Profyle for
- LinkedIn refresh — single high-quality headshot for the most-viewed profile photo on the platform.
- Company team page — consistent style across the team without coordinating a single studio day for everyone.
- Conference and speaker bios — a fresh profile shot that doesn't look like every other corporate stock photo.
- Estate agent / agency profiles — Rightmove, Zoopla, and agency websites all need professional photos, and Profyle has a niche page for estate agents with the right styling.

How it works
You take 10-15 selfies on your phone (any modern smartphone — iPhone, Android, doesn't matter). Upload them through pro-fyle.co.uk. Within roughly two hours you get an email with a gallery of 50+ professional headshots in your selected styles. Pick your favourites, download, use them anywhere. The selfies you uploaded are deleted after delivery; nothing is retained beyond what you'd see in your delivery email.
Common questions for Glasgow customers
Do I need to be in Glasgow to use Profyle?
No. Profyle is fully remote — you upload selfies from anywhere with internet. Glasgow location matters only for what your headshots will be used for (LinkedIn for Glasgow jobs, Glasgow company team page, etc.), not for the photo session itself.
How does Profyle compare to a one-day pop-up shoot in Glasgow?
Pop-up shoots produce real photos with a real photographer, which has its merits. The trade-off: a typical session costs £150-300, you spend an hour or two travelling and on-site, and you wait for the edit pass. Profyle is £29-£39, takes two hours start-to-finish, and you don't leave your desk. Different products for different priorities.
Are the headshots good enough for senior roles?
For LinkedIn, recruiter pipelines, agency profiles, and standard corporate use — yes. For senior executive printed marketing or board-level annual reports, the case-by-case answer depends on your specific brand standards. The 7-day full refund covers it if it doesn't meet your bar.
Is my photo data stored in the UK?
Yes. All Profyle data — including selfies and generated headshots — is hosted in the UK on UK GDPR-compliant infrastructure. If your employer's IT team has data residency requirements, this answers them in one sentence.
