Style combinations determine how your headshots look. You pick a background and an outfit — each combination generates 12 unique headshots with different poses, expressions, and lighting.

## How Combinations Work

Each combination pairs one **background** with one **outfit**. Your plan determines how many combinations you can create:

-   **Basic:** 3 combinations (36 headshots)
-   **Professional:** 5 combinations (60 headshots)
-   **Executive:** 10 combinations (120 headshots)

During onboarding you create your first 3 combinations. With Professional or Executive plans, you can generate more headshots with additional combinations later.

> **Tip:** We recommend choosing at least two combinations with Studio backgrounds — they produce the most consistently good results.

## Backgrounds

Backgrounds set the scene for your headshot. Browse by group:

-   **Studio** — clean, simple backdrops
-   **Corporate** — office and business environments
-   **Urban** — city and street settings
-   **Nature** — outdoor and green environments
-   **Architectural** — buildings and interior spaces
-   **Residential** — home and casual settings

You can toggle between "With person" and "Empty background" previews to see how each background looks.

## Outfits

Outfits control the clothing in your headshot. Browse by group:

-   **Shirts, Polos, T-Shirts** — casual and smart-casual options
-   **Sweaters, Blazers, Suits** — formal and business attire
-   **Uniforms, Sports, Education** — industry-specific looks

You can also filter outfits by color (black, white, navy, blue, etc.).

## Filtering and Searching

The style browser includes several tools to find what you're looking for:

-   **Group filter** — narrow by category (e.g., only Studio backgrounds)
-   **Color filter** — for outfits, filter by color
-   **Search** — type a name to find specific styles
-   **Grid density** — switch between 4-column and 8-column views

Styles are automatically filtered by your gender for the best results.

## Plan-Locked Styles

Some styles are only available on Professional or Executive plans. These show a lock icon. If you see a style you like that's locked, you can create a new profile with a higher-tier plan to access it.

## Tips

-   Mix formal and casual combinations to get variety
-   Love a particular look? Add the same combination multiple times to get more variations of it
-   Try different background types — a Studio background gives a different feel than a Nature one
