Why this prompt works
LinkedIn photos read best with soft, natural light and a friendly expression, so both are set explicitly.
A simple, non-distracting background keeps the focus on your face at thumbnail size — the size LinkedIn actually shows.
Sunglasses, clutter, and heavy filters are excluded because they tank approachability and recruiter trust.
