Editorial-grade quality · Capturely
The Editorial-Grade Alternative to Capturely
Capturely and Remote Headshots both direct your headshot live over video — so the real question isn't the format, it's the finish. Capturely is optimized for fast, high-volume team headshots at a low per-person price. Remote Headshots is built for editorial-grade quality: a more directed session and hand-finished, editorial-level retouching, for a portrait that looks like it belongs in a magazine — not a bulk directory.

Same live-remote format — the difference is how directed the session is and how the final images are retouched.
Why choose editorial-grade
When the headshot is doing real work — executive and founder profiles, press, personal brand, a people page where polish is the point — the editorial finish shows. The direction during the session and the hand-finished retouching afterward put the final image in a different tier. See our retouching standards. It works for one person (individual remote headshots) or a whole team — see pricing.
When Capturely is fine
If you need to roll out hundreds of clean, consistent headshots as fast and cheaply as possible, Capturely is built for exactly that.
Common questions
Capturely vs Remote Headshots: FAQ
Isn't Capturely the same as Remote Headshots?
Both direct live over video. The difference is the finish: we deliver a more directed session and hand-finished, editorial-grade retouching, not volume-optimized output.
Why does Remote Headshots cost more?
It's a higher tier of quality — more direction and editorial-level retouching per frame, rather than a fast batch process.
Can you still do whole teams?
Yes — every person is directed to one editorial standard, so the whole team matches.
What does "editorial retouching" mean?
Each frame is hand-finished to a magazine-quality standard, not run through a standardized batch.
