AI dating photos or a photographer
One is a booking, a half day and 200 to 400. The other is about fifteen seconds a photo. Here is what each one actually gives you.

Photo check

Made for
Three things, one promise
A photographer takes real pictures of you, in a real place, on one particular day. Fottory generates new images of your face from photos you already have. That difference is the whole comparison, and most pages in this category are careful not to mention it. A shoot buys you a day with someone whose job is making people look good. Fottory buys you many attempts at many ideas, for less than the travel to the shoot. Which one suits you depends on what you are short of: money, time, or ideas.

Where each one wins
Cost and time
A dating shoot runs about 200 to 400 and takes half a day, plus finding a photographer, agreeing a date, and waiting for the edits. Fottory packs are one off: 30 photos for 19, 100 for 39, 200 for 69. Each photo takes about fifteen seconds. The first 2 are free and need no card.
What you actually get
The photographer gives you photographs. Real light, a real place, a real afternoon, and a professional deciding how you should stand. Fottory gives you generated images of your likeness, built from 1 to 4 photos of your face. They are not photographs of a day you had. They are pictures of you in a scene you specified. Anyone telling you those are the same thing is selling one of them.
When to book the photographer
If every photo you have is four years old, book the photographer, because nothing here can generate a face it has not seen. If you want pictures of a real trip, a real event or a hobby you actually do, book the photographer. And if a half day of it sounds fun rather than like a chore, book the photographer. Fottory is for the commoner case: you need better photos this week, for a profile, and hiring someone for that feels absurd.
Who you actually have to convince
What the category answers to
Face verification. A realness score. Slipping past a detector. Every rival aims its honesty claim at software, which is a real problem and the wrong one.
What actually decides it
A person sitting across a table who has seen your profile and is now looking at you. No detector has an opinion about that, and no detector is who you have to convince.
It is also why the check exists. Independent judges rated about a third of online dating photos inaccurate while the people who chose them believed otherwise, so the question is not only about the photos you are about to make. It is about the ones already up. Hancock and Toma, 2009

Questions
How much does a dating photoshoot cost?
Around 200 to 400 for a dating specific shoot in most cities, usually including 15 to 20 edited pictures and two or three outfit changes. Add travel, a date that suits you both, and one to two weeks before the edits arrive. Fottory packs start at 19 for 30 photos, and the first 2 are free.
Are AI dating photos as good as a photographer's?
For one perfect picture, no. A good photographer beats a generated image and it is not close. What generation wins on is attempts. You can try eight ideas in a few minutes and keep the two that worked, where a shoot gives you one day, one weather, one mood, and the choices you happened to make at the time.
Will people be able to tell?
Some will, some of the time, and any page promising otherwise is guessing. What you can control is the gap between the pictures and the person who turns up. Fottory builds every photo from your own face, so the answer to "is that you" is yes. Keep the ones that look like an ordinary day of yours and skip anything that flatters you into a stranger.
Can I use both?
Yes, and it usually makes the best profile. Pictures from a real day carry things generation cannot invent: your actual friends, an actual trip, a hobby you actually have. Use those to show a life, and use generated photos for the slots you have nothing decent for.
Will the photos still look like me?
Yes. It is your own face, not a new one. Upload clear photos and the results look like you, at your best.
Are AI photos allowed on dating apps?
Dating apps do not ban AI photos. Tinder’s Community Guidelines say “Don’t create a fake account or pretend to be someone you’re not”, and say nothing about AI at all. The rule is about whether the person in the photo is you.
Will people be able to tell the photos are AI?
We cannot promise nobody notices, and anyone who does is guessing. What we can say is what decides it. A generated photo gives itself away when the face has been smoothed, when the light does not match the place, or when the person in it is not quite the person you meet. So the whole product is built the other way: your own face, your own features, kept as they are. You choose which photos to use, and you can say they were generated. Our own writing argues you should.
How many photos do I need to upload?
One is enough. It has to show only you, with your face towards the camera and your hair visible. You can add up to four for more variety. A side angle or a full body photo helps, but we do not need them.
Can I choose the scenes and outfits?
Yes. Pick a place and clothes from the list, describe them, or show us a photo to follow.
How much does it cost?
You pay once, with no subscription. Packs start at 19, and you only spend a credit when you ask for a photo.
Can I try it for free first?
Yes. Your first two photos are free and you do not need a card. See your own face before you pay anything.
Is my data private?
We never train on your photos and we never share them. They stay yours.
