A St Patricks Day Photoshoot

The Seventeenth register

The Seventeenth draws on Dublin on the seventeenth of March — the pub's green tile front, the green wool coat, the sky grey held to the family: a st patricks day photoshoot built on a street held entirely to green. The value is a grey Dublin afternoon carrying one green figure.

Photographically the register is grey light, green through the tile's glaze, the coat's wool and the scarf's knit, separated by gloss and nap. Three frames carry the pack: a head-and-shoulders with the green coat's collar and scarf against the pub's tile, a chest-up standing at the door with a pint held at the chest, and a wide shot of the street from the corner, the pub's green front the frame's single colour.

The output is photoreal — a real-looking photograph of you at the pub, generated from your own uploaded face. It's a portrait for men built on the St Patrick's Day tradition, not a depiction of any real pub, brand, or person.

How to photograph yourself for a St Patricks Day photoshoot

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 setting go on top.

1. Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight on your face. The pack builds its own studio or location 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, sunglasses, or heavy filters in the source photo. A clear, front-facing photo is the best input for an AI portrait.
4. A composed expressionThe day favours a genuine grin over a stiff pose — a warm, easy expression blends most naturally into the register.
5. Plain background is fineDon't worry about your own backdrop — the pack's setting replaces 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 — a real-looking photograph of you at St Patrick's Day in Dublin, not a painting or an illustration — built from the documented details of the day: the wardrobe, the setting, and the light.

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 in the same register — different crops, expressions, and light.

Is this a real photo from St Patrick's Day in Dublin, or of me?

It's a portrait of you. The pack borrows St Patrick's Day in Dublin's documented wardrobe and setting as a costume and visual reference; every frame is generated from your own uploaded face.

How is this different from a generic AI photo filter?

Most generic filters default to a vague green-filter overlay. This pack is anchored to specific, documented details — the pub's green tile, the wool coat, a grey Dublin afternoon — so it reads as an actual green outfit portrait, not a stock-photo approximation.

Can women use this pack?

This pack is styled and posed for men. A women's version 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, the prep tips above are the fastest fix, and lighting is the most common culprit.

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 it as a March 17th social post?

Yes — it's built exactly for that: a striking St Patrick's Day portrait to share for the occasion.

Do I need real Dublin pub access for this to work?

No — the pack builds the pub front and street around your uploaded face. You don't need to be in Dublin; 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.
