AI Executive Headshots

The Jakarta executive register

This is the capital's business life dressed as its own people dress it. The centrepiece is modern batik — the slim-cut indigo-and-cream sogan shirt, the teal-and-gold parang blouse — worn the way it is genuinely worn to a tower office on a Friday: as tailoring, not costume, an executive garment with a pattern behind it. Around it the pack builds the two other rooms where the city's professionals actually spend their days: the specialty kopi bar of warm walnut and brass where a small glass of black coffee sits beside a closed laptop and a deal gets talked through, and the high skybridge where the monsoon breaks the sunset into banked orange cloud.

In photographic terms: half-length and three-quarter framing, natural equatorial daylight — hazy through tower glass, rain-softened through the cafe window, storm-torn at dusk — and a palette that follows the garment and the room. Indigo, cream and gold in the office; white, walnut and brass in the coffee bar; black batik, amber and storm violet on the skybridge. Sharp modern tailoring alternates with the batik so the set reads as one coherent professional wardrobe, not a theme.

The output is a photograph, not an illustration — real photography of you, in a real Jakarta business setting, with none of the plastic AI gloss. Three registers, nine portraits: the tower office, the kopi bar, and the skybridge at monsoon dusk.

How to photograph yourself for AI executive headshots

One clear photo is enough to see your free preview in seconds. To unlock the full pack you train your own model on 12-20 photos — that is what makes every headshot truly you rather than a close stranger.

1. Use soft, directional daylightStand near a window with indirect daylight on your face from one side. Avoid overhead office lighting and phone flash — both flatten the modelling the office and kopi-bar registers rely on.
2. Shoot at eye level, front or three-quarterCamera at eye level, face front-facing or turned slightly — the same angle a good pas foto uses. The pack frames you half-length; skip selfie-stick uplooks and steep angles.
3. Keep the background plainA plain wall lets the AI place the tower office, the coffee bar, or the skybridge behind you cleanly instead of fighting a busy room.
4. Dress the partThe pack renders modern batik and sharp tailoring. Starting from a collared shirt or a blouse in your source photo, rather than a heavy jacket or a t-shirt, keeps the portrait consistent with the executive register.
5. Upload 12-20 varied photos to train your modelOne photo covers the free preview. For the full pack, upload 12-20 photos — front, slight turn, different light. That varied set is the best photo input for AI headshots and holds the likeness across all nine.

Frequently asked questions

What does the output actually look like — is it photorealistic?

Photorealistic. It reads as a real photograph of you in a Jakarta business setting — a tower office in modern batik, a specialty coffee bar, or a skybridge at monsoon dusk — not an illustration and not the plastic AI look. The free preview streams in seconds so you can judge the likeness before committing.

Is the batik treated respectfully?

Yes. Modern batik here is office tailoring, worn the way it is genuinely worn to a tower office — the slim indigo sogan shirt, the teal parang blouse — not a costume prop. It is one register in a coherent professional wardrobe alongside sharp modern suiting.

Can this replace a pas foto or foto formal?

It can stand in wherever you'd use a foto formal for a professional profile — LinkedIn, a company page, a work channel. It reads as a real business portrait rather than a plain document photo. For an official pas foto with fixed government size and background rules, follow the specific requirements of the office that asks for it; this pack is styled portraiture, not a regulated ID photo.

How does it work, and how long does it take?

Drop one photo and a free preview streams in seconds — close, not fully you yet. To unlock the full pack you train your own model on 12-20 photos; it trains in the background and we email you when it's ready. After that every one of the nine headshots renders from your model in about ten seconds.

Can I use these on LinkedIn or a company site?

Yes — that's the core use. Full-resolution, portrait-ratio, no watermark. The three registers give you variety so a leadership page doesn't read as nine copies of one shot, and a single frame carries your LinkedIn or professional dp.

What if my only photo is a casual selfie?

One good photo is enough for the free preview. If the likeness is off, the prep tips above fix it fastest. The full pack trains on 12-20 photos, which absorbs any single weak input.

How is this different from HeadshotPro, Aragon, or Photo AI?

Same family, different order of operations. Those tools train a model per shoot — pay first, upload, wait, one delivery. Narcis gives you a free preview before you commit, then trains your model once. That one model renders this pack, every other pack, and the portrait Studio at about ten seconds a portrait, and it stays yours to retrain or delete.

How is this different from generating an 'executive' image in Midjourney or Stable Diffusion?

Text-to-image tools produce a person who fits a description — not you. This pack anchors the identity to your own uploaded photos, so the output is a headshot of you, not a plausible stranger in a batik shirt.

Can I use the headshots commercially, and what happens to my photos?

The output is yours — company site, press, decks, business cards, anywhere a professional photo belongs, no restriction (see the terms). Your photos are processed on European servers; preview photos are deleted within 24 hours, training photos train only your model, and we do not share them.

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.
