The Pink Palaces register
Luanda is a Portuguese colonial capital on a curved bay: a fortress on the hill, palaces and churches in pink and ochre stucco with white trim, a new promenade along the water and glass towers beyond, all in a warm humid light. The pack puts the architect there in a dusty rose linen suit over a blush shirt, pink in every value from pale blush to deep rose.
He stands before a pink stucco wall with white trim, soft behind him, with warm light from one side and a catchlight in each eye. He rests a hand on a palace's white colonnade, the pink wall soft behind. And at half-length he stands on the promenade while the pink palaces run along the curved bay behind him toward the fortress on its hill. The mood is a man dressed in the stucco the colony painted its palaces in.
What comes out is photographic: nine photos of you, three in each of three settings, in the look of Luanda. 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 level, composed lookA architect's portrait should read as calm and attentive. A steady 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 in Luanda?
- No. It is a portrait of you set in the look of Luanda. 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, not a painting or a cartoon, in the look of Luanda.
- Is it right for architects and designers?
- Yes. It suits architects, urban planners, interior designers and engineers, for a practice website, a competition entry, a conference programme or an author photo.
- Why pink?
- Luanda's colonial palaces are pink and ochre stucco with white trim. A rose suit over a blush shirt lets him stand in the walls instead of against them.
- 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
