Questions
Can I see a result before I pay?
Yes. After you upload your photos and pick your styles, we make one headshot of you for free (small, with a watermark) before you choose a plan. If you like it, your plan makes the full set in 4K without the watermark. If not, you pay nothing.
Can our whole startup team get matching headshots?
Yes. Share one Proud Look for teams link; each person uploads from their own phone, and you pick one look so the team page matches.
Does it work in Oakland, Berkeley and the rest of the San Francisco area?
Yes. Proud Look is online, so it works the same anywhere in the area, including Oakland, Berkeley, Daly City, San Mateo and Palo Alto: upload phone photos from home or work, and your headshots arrive by email.
Do you have a studio or office in San Francisco?
No. Proud Look is an online service with no local studio or office. You upload phone photos from anywhere in San Francisco, and download your headshots online.
