How your model is created from your photos
Every pack on Narcis, made with your face
Nine photographs of you in one setting: one pack of the Narcis catalogue.
A white Russian general's coat, gold epaulettes, the Saint Andrew ribbon under a Redoutensaal chandelier — the royal court photoshoot built around the Congress that redrew Europe between waltzes and suppers. Nine photographs of you, in portrait format. The nine vary in crop, expression and light, so there are real choices, not nine identical files.

The Congress of Vienna register
This pack is one of Etiquette's royal court photoshoot series — the courts of Europe, 1450–1935 — set at the Congress of Vienna: Alexander I dancing a new map of Europe into being across 1814 and 1815, between the Hofburg's waltzing and Talleyrand's suppers. The value is the male court dress of the Congress that danced.
Photographically the register is candle and gilt: a Russian general's white uniform coat with gold epaulettes and the Saint Andrew ribbon, tight white breeches and boots, or a dark green Russian coat with orders and a plumed bicorne. The palette runs white, gold, blue ribbon, green, and Vienna cream.
Three scenes carry the pack: the Redoutensaal among waltzing couples and lit chandeliers; a late supper in a Vienna palace dining room, the map of Europe being redrawn between courses; a Schönbrunn court hunt among huntsmen's horns and bare gold trees. Each is a genuine facet of the Congress that governed by ballroom, not one coat in three rooms.
The output is photoreal — a real-looking photograph of you in that world, not a painting despite the early-nineteenth-century references. It's a costume portrait; it isn't a depiction of any real historical figure, and it doesn't claim to be.
How to photograph yourself for a Congress of Vienna photoshoot
Better source photos make better portraits.
- Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight on your face. The pack adds its own candlelit ballroom glow later — a flat, well-lit selfie gives it the clearest face to build 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 filters in the source photo. A clear, front-facing photo is the best input for an AI portrait.
- Charming, easy composureThe register favors charming, easy composure over a big grin — a relaxed, confident look in your source photo blends more naturally into the ballroom and supper frames.
- Plain background is fineDon't worry about your own backdrop — the Redoutensaal, the supper table, and the Schönbrunn hunt replace it entirely. A plain wall behind you just helps the model focus on your face.
Frequently asked questions
- Will it actually look like a real photo, and like the Congress of Vienna?
- Yes on both. The output is photoreal — a film-still-quality photograph, not a painting — and the white uniform, the gold epaulettes, and the Redoutensaal's chandeliers are built to read as a genuine 1815 world.
- Is this a real historical figure, or is it me?
- It's a portrait of you. The pack borrows the male court and military dress of the 1815 Congress of Vienna as a costume and visual reference; every frame is a portrait of you and doesn't depict any real historical figure.
- Can women use this pack?
- The styling and sample set are built for men — the uniform coat, the epaulettes, the bicorne — so it reads masculine.
- Can I use this as a profile picture or on a dating app?
- Yes — it's a striking, charming portrait that reads well on either. Used honestly, as a stylised AI photoshoot rather than a claim of royal descent, it works well on any profile.
- Can I use it for a themed ball or history-costume invitation?
- Personal use like this is fine — an invitation, a themed birthday shoot, a keepsake print. It isn't licensed for commercial resale.
- Do I need an actual uniform for this to work?
- You don't need any of it in real life; that's what the photoshoot supplies.
- 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.
