Academic headshots for faculty pages and conference programs.

Use cases

Built for the places Teacher & Educator photos actually get used.

Each look in this pack is tuned for the surfaces below.

Use case

Faculty profile

Prospective students and collaborators land on your department page first. A current, approachable photo makes it easier to reach out.

Use case

Lab websites

Research groups show the PI and members in a grid. One shared look keeps the page consistent as people join and leave.

Use case

Conference programs

Organizers ask for a speaker photo weeks before the event. Having a ready file saves a scramble before the program goes to print.

Use case

Press and public writing

Journalists quoting your research and editors running your op-ed want a headshot. The Editorial look is clean enough for news layouts.

Why it works

Open the Teacher & Educator pack on the Faculty Office look: a tidy department workspace and a blazer or smart shirt.

Use a selfie that matches how students see you in lectures, glasses and beard included.

Add Education Conference Speaker for talks and Education Editorial for press quotes and book jackets.

Frequently asked about professor headshots

Can I use this for my university ID card?

No. Campus ID offices usually take their own photo or set their own rules. Pixshop is for profiles, programs, and press, not ID cards.

Does my university have a headshot style guide?

Many communications offices do. Check it for background or crop rules, then pick the look that matches most closely.

I am a PhD student on the job market. Is this for me?

Yes for your job-market website and conference talks. If you are still applying to programs, the Grad School Application pack fits better.
