The Oldest College register
The oldest university of Poland stands in Kraków, and its medieval college is a Gothic courtyard of red brick and pale stone, with a cloister of pointed arches, a well, a carved bay window and a clock whose wooden figures parade at the hour. The old town's market square is a street away. The pack puts the professor in that courtyard in a rust-red corduroy jacket over a cream knit.
Deep brick red is the colour, with pale stone tracery as its light. He stands before a red-brick wall with a pale stone arch soft at the edge and a book held closed against his jacket, in the cloister with a hand on a stone pier and the arches receding behind him, and on the court's paving with the carved bay and the well at the centre. The daylight in the court is soft. The clock figures and the clock face are kept unreadable.
What comes out is photographic: nine photos of you, three in each of three settings, in the look of the Gothic courtyard of the oldest university in Poland. 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 professor 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 thoughtful, open lookA professor's portrait should read as someone who listens before he answers. A calm, attentive expression in your source photo 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 Gothic courtyard of the oldest university in Poland?
- No. It is a portrait of you set in the look of the Gothic courtyard of the oldest university in Poland. 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 Gothic courtyard of the oldest university in Poland, not a painting or a cartoon.
- Is this right for professors and lecturers?
- Yes. It suits professors, lecturers, deans and researchers, for a faculty page, a department directory, a conference programme or a book jacket.
- Why rust and cream?
- They are the colours of the brick and the stone tracery. A corduroy jacket and a knit in that pair let the portrait sit inside the courtyard.
- 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
