How to Choose the Best Photo for a Big Head Cutout

Image quality plays an important role when a photograph is enlarged.

For the best result, choose a photo that is:

• Clear and high resolution
• Well lit
• In focus
• Taken relatively close to the subject
• Free from heavy shadows across the face
• Large enough to remain clear when enlarged
• Showing the complete area you want included

A front-facing or slightly angled portrait will generally make the person's face easier to recognize.

Avoid heavily compressed images, blurry screenshots, extremely small photos, or pictures where the face occupies only a tiny portion of the image.

Quick tip: If you have several photos available, choose the original, highest-quality image rather than a screenshot or a version downloaded from social media.
