# Studio headshot

1. Use the `headshot` tool. It takes one clear, front-facing photo of one person and either a `template` or a `prompt`, not both.
2. Ask for the photo with `ask_for_media` and `kind: "image"`, and in the same message ask what look they want.
3. Once the photo is in, use the look they describe as `prompt`, or call `list_presets` for `headshot` to show templates.
4. Call `headshot` with the input and a fresh `request_id` and no `max_credits`, then follow the quote's `next` (it applies the user's approval mode). On a yes, call it again with the same input and `request_id` and the agreed `max_credits`.
5. Offer follow-ups: another template, `edit_image` for touch-ups, `upscale` for print, or `create_video` to animate it.
