Having to go to a photo studio for an ID photo, but you don't have time, and what if it turns out awkward — you've probably had this thought before, right?
What if you could create professional ID photos for job applications or passports with just one selfie from your smartphone? An expert with over 10 years of experience running a photo studio will guide you through using AI ID photo services.
How to Create AI ID Photos?
The process is simple.
- Take a selfie with your smartphone — in natural light, facing forward.
- Upload it to MONKOS AI — Easy login with Google or LINE.
- Choose your style — Specify background color and outfit style.
- Download your completed ID photo — High-resolution original for printing/submission.
No need for photo studio appointments or feeling nervous under bright lights. The selfie you took at your most natural moment becomes your ID photo.
Will it look natural even though it's a selfie?
This is the most frequently asked question.
To get straight to the point — it's much more natural than you'd expect.
MONKOS AI does not artificially alter your face shape or apply excessive retouching. It maintains the natural expression of your selfie while transforming only the background and outfit to a professional studio standard.
Because this service was directly developed by a photographer with 20 years of experience, incorporating real studio operation expertise, the quality of the results differs from typical AI apps.
Can I change my outfit too?
Yes, this is a core feature.
You don't necessarily need to wear a suit when taking your selfie. Even if you take it in your casual clothes, MONKOS AI will naturally transform it into a professional suit for job applications or an appropriate outfit for ID photos.
- Korean Style — Navy jacket, casual, etc.
- Japanese Style — Black suit + white shirt, neat expression
Being able to compare both styles at once is also a significant advantage.

What's more important than specifications — Your natural expression
The most important thing for an ID photo isn't the specifications. It's a natural expression that conveys trustworthiness in a first impression.
A selfie taken when you are most natural can actually make a better ID photo than one taken nervously under studio lights.
MONKOS AI makes that possible.
