Is there an alternate way to get Profile Headshots? or is it a scam?
Since I offer film promotional services for most south indian industry professionals, I get to interact with various agencies, and today I came to learn that there are a few individuals who are charging a certain fee to offer headshots on profile for lifetime (example i was given was: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm12190366/?ref_=nmbio_ov_bk) While i would love to engage in this service and bypass the IMDb pro fee, i was hoping to understand what are the alternatives and eligibility criteria for the same.
Thank you.

If you are an official photographer accredited by IMDb, you can definitely add photos that get added to people's profile pages. Think red-carpet event photographers - they might add many photos to a film's page, and these official photos also get added to your own personal page if you get tagged.
I'm not sure how they get accredited but it must be a strict and official process.
What you're referring to, I believe, is that I've observed that a number of these photographers will specifically post photos to your account for a fee. It's dodgy, and it probably goes against the terms of service, but technically it should work - until they get caught.
