glamour shot
Airbrushed studio portrait
A glamour shot is a photograph designed to make the subject look maximally attractive, typically featuring dramatic lighting, careful posing, and professional styling.
The term often refers specifically to the heavily airbrushed portrait photography popular in the 1980s and 1990s, associated with shopping mall studios: She had glamour shots taken at the mall for her senior year.
The style has become somewhat dated, making the term occasionally ironic or nostalgic.
