The Plane Tree Avenue

The Plane Tree Avenue register

The Plane Tree Avenue pack sets a headshot inside one November idea: an avenue of plane trees, their leaves ochre on the ground and thinning above, an ochre wool coat with wide lapels worn against the bark's own mottled ochre. Leaf, bark and wool share one hue in three textures — the face the only other colour.

Photographically the register is soft outdoor afternoon light: close against the mottled trunk, open and diffuse in the avenue's centre where the thinning canopy lets the light through. The coat's wide lapel is the frame's silhouette, never a second colour.

Three looks carry the pack: against a plane trunk with the leaves soft behind, centred in the avenue under the thinning canopy, and half-length on the leaf-covered path. The output is photoreal — an actual-looking photograph from your own uploaded face.

How to photograph yourself for The Plane Tree Avenue portraits

Better source photos make better portraits. The pack works with an ordinary phone selfie — the free preview shows you the likeness before you commit — but a few things sharpen the result.

1. Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight on your face. The pack builds its own outdoor light 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 or heavy filters in the source photo. A clear, front-facing photo is the strongest input.
4. A composed, professional expressionA level, assured look reads better in a headshot than a big grin — a calm expression in your source photo carries through into the finished frames.
5. Plain background is fineDon't worry about your own backdrop — the pack's settings 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 photograph?

Yes. The output is photoreal — real plane trees, real afternoon light, an ochre wool coat — built from your own uploaded face.

Can I use this as my LinkedIn photo?

Yes — it's built for exactly that. The avenue and ochre coat read as a warm, professional headshot.

How is this different from a generic AI headshot generator?

Most AI headshot tools default to a studio sweep that reads as obviously synthetic. This pack is anchored to one specific avenue and one held ochre palette, so it reads as an actual photograph.

Is this pack only for women?

This particular pack is built and styled for women — the ochre coat and register around it. A men's headshot pack in a matching November world is a separate pack.

What if my source photo isn't great?

One clear phone selfie is usually enough. The free preview shows you the likeness before you commit.

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 isn't sold or shared with third parties.

Can I use it for a dating profile too?

Yes — the same natural, outdoor-lit look works well on a dating profile as it does on LinkedIn.

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.
