Will it actually look like a real photograph?

Yes. The output is photoreal — a genuine-looking low-light photograph, not an illustration — built around a black roll-neck and a cat sharing the frame.

Do I need to own a cat for this to work?

No. The pack builds the cat and the dark room around your uploaded face — you don't need a cat, or that exact flat, in real life.

What's the difference between the free preview and the full pack?

The free preview is one photo from your uploaded face, shown live in seconds so you can judge the likeness before you pay. The full pack is nine photos across three takes with the cat — different crops, expressions, and light.

Is this pack for men or women?

This pack is styled for men — the roll-neck and register are built around a masculine, understated look. Narcis has other packs if you're after a women's version instead.

Can I use this as a dating profile photo?

Yes — it's built for exactly that. A calm, low-light portrait with a cat reads as composed and a little dry rather than trying too hard.

How is this different from a generic AI dating photo filter?

Most generic filters apply a vague dark-mode look. This pack is anchored to a specific all-black outfit and a real cat sharing the shoulder, so it reads as a genuine shoot rather than a filtered selfie.

What happens to the photo I upload?

Your photo is processed on European servers to generate your preview and, if you continue, your full pack. It is not sold or shared with third parties.

The Black Cat Black Knit register

This pack is a tone-on-tone dark portrait: a black merino roll-neck against a black cat on the shoulder, both lit by one low warm source so the eyes — his and the cat's — are what the frame actually shows.

Photographically the register is deadpan and dim: a dark wall or a window with city lights beyond, one soft side light, the knit's matte wool against the cat's glossy fur.

Three takes carry the pack: chest-up with the cat on one shoulder against a dark wall, a tight headshot with the cat's head beside his jaw and four eyes to the lens, and a three-quarter turn holding the cat by a window with city points beyond.

The output is photoreal — a genuine-looking low-light photograph of you and the cat, not an illustration. It's built from your own uploaded face; no real cat is depicted, and it doesn't claim to be.

How to photograph yourself for the Black Cat Black Knit photoshoot

Better source photos make better portraits. The pack works with an ordinary phone selfie — the free preview tells you in seconds — but a few things sharpen the likeness before the low light goes in behind you.

Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight on your face. The pack builds its own low, warm light on top — a flat, well-lit selfie gives it the clearest face to work from.
Front or three-quarter angleCamera at eye level, facing it or turned slightly to three-quarter. No selfie-stick uplook, no shot from below.
Face fully clearHair off the face, no hats or sunglasses in the source photo. A clear, front-facing photo is the best input for an AI portrait.
A calm, amused expressionThe register favors deadpan and composed over a big smile — a calm expression in your source photo blends more naturally into the low-light frames.
Plain background is fineDon't worry about your own backdrop — the pack's dark room replaces it entirely. A plain wall behind you just helps the model focus on your face.

About narcis

Most AI portrait tools ship every pose, profession, era, and aesthetic in one giant catalog. The output looks like every other AI photo on the internet — a glaze over a stock face. Narcis goes the other way. One tool, one job: turn photos of you into portraits worth keeping. Drop a selfie and your free preview streams in seconds — a quick sketch: close, not you yet. For portraits that are truly you, train your own model on 12 to 20 photos; it trains in the background, and we email you when it is ready. Train once, render everywhere — this pack, every other pack, and the Studio all come out of that one model, about ten seconds a portrait, and it stays yours to retrain or delete. Each pack is hand-curated against actual references — paintings, photographers, registers — and tested on real faces before it ships. See a free preview before you pay, not after. Packs are one-time — no subscription to buy one; Studio, the unlimited composer, is optional at €12/month and every pack includes 30 days of it. No template generator. Built and run by one team, on our own infrastructure.
