LinkedIn headshots in London — UK-priced, GDPR-safe, from £29
Updating your LinkedIn photo shouldn't mean a half-day off work for a studio in central London. AI headshots from your phone, delivered in two hours, from £29.
Why London professionals are picking Profyle: studios in central London 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 London
London's LinkedIn baseline is set by recruiters across financial services, law, tech, and consulting who scan thousands of profiles a week — the photo is a 2-second judgement that frames the rest of the profile. The expectation is high (recent, professional, well-lit, framed correctly) and the cost of getting it wrong is real. Profyle generates LinkedIn-cropped headshots in multiple styles tuned to the look London recruiters expect, without the £200-400 a Mayfair or Shoreditch studio would charge for a comparable session.

What London 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.
- Personal branding — coaches, consultants, freelancers in London who want to look professional without the studio cost.
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 London customers
Do I need to be in London to use Profyle?
No. Profyle is fully remote — you upload selfies from anywhere with internet. London location matters only for what your headshots will be used for (LinkedIn for London jobs, London company team page, etc.), not for the photo session itself.
How does Profyle compare to a one-day pop-up shoot in London?
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.
