× 
Photo days, per-hospital vendors, and one-off shoots, each with its own light, background, and retouch level.
Physician profiles on houstonmethodist.org, internal directories, badges, and campaigns each show a different photo, or one from years ago.
Every update costs scheduling emails, clinical time, and files that end up in folders nobody governs.
Patients choose physicians with their eyes.
Before the credentials, before the reviews, they see the photo: on houstonmethodist.org, in the provider directory, on the badge. Right now, no one system owns it.

× A mobile, self-service studio with patented directional soft light that rolls between hospitals.
Real iPhone photos submitted from anywhere, finished to the same standard.
Retouch, relight, and background standardization that never invents a face.
Invites, galleries, tags, exports, brand rules. One archive for every image.
The difference is the system around the image.
× × A branded link arrives by email.
They submit a real iPhone photo, or upload an existing one.
AI relight, clean background, retouch. The studio standard, applied.
Finished headshot returns to the user and the admin portal.
Built for: physician profiles on houstonmethodist.org · July residency cohorts · off-site leaders · urgent directory updates · nurse recruiting

Headshot LabOne sitting, five identity-verified looks. The whole studio, in a box.
✦ See your 5 looks
One sit. Five studio looks. Unmistakably you.
Every surface carries the same standard: identity verified, brand approved, one archive.
× No fantasy portraits. Real capture in, one approved, brand-safe standard out.
× Less chasing. No scattered folders. One approved image source, and a provider directory that finally looks like Leading Medicine.
× Every employee, every session, every gallery. Searchable, taggable, exportable.
Smart retouching, background swaps, and uniform looks across the team, end to end.
Same lighting, same framing, same retouch level. Every hire, every quarter, every year.
Your colors, your backdrop, your booking flow. Your team books inside Houston Methodist.
Batch exports named to your convention: Lastname_First_Dept, sized per surface, directory-ready.
Who shot when, completion rate by department, sessions per quarter. Pipe it to your HRIS or badge system.
× This is the delivery built for Houston Methodist: your blue, your logo, a private gallery link, a physician in a Methodist coat. It is live in our system today.
× Studio Pod did not start as a photo booth adapted for headshots. It started from professional portrait standards: light quality, light direction, skin tone, repeatability. Then it automated them.
