What photo should I send to event organizers?

Send a recent, high-quality head-and-shoulders portrait that you have approved, plus the requested file format and dimensions. Avoid text embedded in the image because organizers often crop it for several layouts.

Why use a 4:5 speaker headshot?

A 4:5 portrait gives event teams useful vertical framing for speaker cards and program pages. They may still crop it square or circular, so keep important facial and hair detail away from the edges.

Can I create a more editorial speaker portrait?

Describe a restrained background and lighting treatment that remains credible for the event. Review the generated portrait and reject any result that changes recognizable facial features or implies a misleading setting.

How do I deliver the finished speaker image?

Review it at full size, export the clean result, and keep an uncropped source if the organizer requests another ratio. Confirm the organizer accepts AI-assisted imagery when their policy requires disclosure.
