The register of the old city of Cairo
The old city of Cairo is a street of medieval mosques, schools and merchant houses in honey limestone, with carved stone screens, tall minarets, latticed wooden balconies and a covered bazaar. The pack sets the architect in its architecture, never in a rite, and dresses him in a honey-brown linen suit over a cream shirt, the colour of the facades. The light is dusty and gold.
He stands before a wall of carved honey limestone, rests a hand on the dark frame of a latticed balcony at a merchant house, and stands on worn paving with the minarets rising behind him above the facades. The silhouette is the tall tiered minaret and the carved screen, and every value runs from pale dust to deep carved shadow.
What comes out is photographic: nine photos of you, three in each of three settings, in the look of the old city of Cairo. The place and the wardrobe are borrowed as a setting; the photos are portraits of you, not pictures taken there.
How to photograph yourself for a architect headshot
Better source photos make better portraits. An ordinary phone photo is enough, and a few habits sharpen the likeness.
- Even, soft lightStand near a window with daylight on your face. Avoid overhead bulbs and phone flash, which flatten a face.
- Front or three-quarter angleCamera at eye level, facing it or turned slightly. No shot from below, no stretched arm.
- Face fully clearHair off the face, no sunglasses and no filters. A clear, front-facing phone photo is the best starting point.
- A calm, level lookA relaxed expression with the mouth closed or a slight smile carries over best.
- A plain background is fineDo not worry about your own backdrop. The pack replaces it entirely.
Frequently asked questions
- Is this a real photo taken at the old city of Cairo?
- No. It is a portrait of you set in the look of the old city of Cairo. It is not a picture taken there.
- Will it look like a real photograph?
- Yes. Every photo is photoreal: a real-looking photograph of you in the look of the old city of Cairo, not a painting or a cartoon.
- Is this set inside a mosque?
- No. The pack stays in the streets and facades of the old city, in its architecture, and shows no worship.
- Is this pack for men?
- The wardrobe and styling are cut for men, so the pack reads that way. Other packs on Narcis suit other looks.
- Will the photos look like me?
- Every photo looks like you, well photographed. If one is nearly right, say what to change, in your own words.
- Do I have to write a prompt?
- No. There is nothing to write: you pick a pack, and it is ready in seconds.
- How many photos of myself do I add?
- Between six and twenty, from different days and in different light, with your face clear. We check each one when you add it.
- What happens to the photos I add?
- They are used only to create your model, on our own servers in the European Union. They are not shared and not sold.

About narcis
Most AI photo tools put every pose, job, era, and style in one giant catalog. The photos all look like every other AI photo on the internet — a glaze over a stock face. Narcis goes the other way. One job: photos of you that look like photographs. You add at least 6 photos of yourself, and we create your AI model from them. Your photos are ready in a few hours, and we email you when they are. Then this pack and every other pack on Narcis can be made with your face. Each pack is curated against real references — paintings, photographers, places — and tested on real faces before it goes live. Built and run by one small team, on our own servers.
All images are AI-generated. By using this service, you confirm you are 18+, that any face photo you upload is your own or used with explicit consent. Full Terms
