Corporate Headshot Men — Minneapolis Skyway Teal

The Minneapolis Skyway Teal register

Minneapolis Skyway Teal draws on Minneapolis at twenty below, where downtown crosses itself entirely by glass skyways whose tinted panes turn the snowy streets teal: a teal merino quarter-zip, nine storeys above the ice.

Photographically the license is the skyway as a studio of coloured light: teal merino against teal-tinted glass against the white city seen through it. Three settings carry the pack -- a skyway with tinted walls converging behind, a tight headshot against the pane itself with the white city glowing through, and a three-quarter turn against a steel mullion in a snowstorm -- chest-up and headshot throughout.

The output is photoreal: a real-looking photograph of you in a teal skyway, built from your own uploaded face -- not a painting, not a generic corporate filter.

How to photograph yourself for Minneapolis Skyway Teal portraits

Better source photos make better portraits. The pack works with an ordinary phone selfie -- the free preview tells you in seconds -- but a few things sharpen the likeness before the wardrobe and the tinted-glass light go on top.

1. Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight on your face. The pack builds its own cool, filtered daylight on top -- a flat, well-lit selfie gives it the clearest face to work from.
2. Front or three-quarter angleCamera at eye level, facing it or turned slightly to three-quarter. No selfie-stick uplook, no shot from below.
3. Face fully clearHair off the face, no hats, sunglasses, or heavy filters in the source photo. A clear, front-facing photo is the best input for an AI headshot.
4. A composed expressionThis register favors an easy, amused half smile over a flat expression -- a sharp, approachable look in your source photo blends more naturally into the chest-up and headshot frames.
5. Plain background is fineDon't worry about your own backdrop -- the pack's three settings replace it entirely. A plain wall behind you just helps the model focus on your face.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between the free preview and the full pack?

The free preview is one photo from your uploaded face, shown live in seconds so you can judge the likeness before you commit. The full pack is nine photos across the same three settings -- different crops, expressions, and light.

Will it actually look like a professional headshot, not an AI filter?

Yes. The output is photoreal -- a real-looking photograph of you in the Minneapolis Skyway Teal register, chest-up and headshot framing throughout, not a painting or an obvious filter pass. It's built from your own uploaded face; the wardrobe and setting are the costume, you are the sitter.

What happens to the photo I upload?

Your photo is processed on European servers to generate your preview and, if you continue, your full pack. It is not sold or shared with third parties.

Can I use one photo or do I need several?

One clear, front-facing phone photo is usually enough. More angles improve likeness slightly -- the free preview tells you whether one photo is sufficient before you commit.

Is this pack built for men or women?

The wardrobe and world here are built for men -- the palette, the cut, and the three settings are cast for that frame. A version for the other side isn't shipped in this pack.

What if my source photo isn't great?

One clear phone selfie is usually enough. The free preview shows you the likeness in seconds -- if it's off, even, soft light on your face is the fastest fix.

Can I use this for LinkedIn or my company's page?

Yes -- that's the pack's own use case. The skyway, tinted-pane-close-up, and steel-mullion settings read as a genuine corporate portrait for LinkedIn, a company leadership page, a speaker bio, or a press kit, not a holiday snapshot dressed up.

How is this different from a generic AI headshot filter?

Most generic filters default to one flat studio look. This pack is built around a specific register -- Minneapolis Skyway Teal's own world, wardrobe, and light -- across three genuinely different settings, not one backdrop repeated.

Do I need to actually be in Minneapolis or own a teal quarter-zip in real life?

No -- the pack builds the wardrobe and the setting around your uploaded face. You don't need any of it in your closet or a plane ticket; that's what the photoshoot supplies.

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.
