Will it actually look like Station F and Paris, and like a real photo?

Yes on both. A zinc-counter café, a Sentier street, and Station F's concrete nave come back detailed and recognizable, and the output is photoreal: a real-looking photograph of you in Paris, not a painting or a cartoon.

Is it honest to use this as my LinkedIn photo?

Yes — it's a genuine portrait of you, styled for the founder register. LinkedIn photos are expected to be flattering and current, not a documentary record of your actual commute.

Which Paris spots does it cover?

The three that define Silicon Sentier's circuit: a zinc-counter café, a Sentier street, and Station F's nave. Nine portraits, three per spot.

How is this different from booking a real Paris photographer?

A real Station F shoot means a badge, a booking, and a photographer's day rate. This gives you the same nave, the same zinc counter, the same street, whenever you like.

Can I use it for a founder bio or press kit?

Yes — the unstructured-jacket, no-tie styling reads as a working founder's portrait, exactly what a press kit or investor deck wants.

Can women use this pack?

The sample and styling are built for men, so it reads masculine throughout. The companion 'paris-sentier' pack renders the same quarter's register for women.

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.

The Silicon Sentier photoshoot register

Silicon Sentier is the same Paris quarter by its historical name — zinc counters at eight, a walk-and-talk through the covered passages, Station F's endless nave for demo day. This pack renders the French-founder register: unstructured jackets, fine knits, no tie ever, in zinc, Haussmann cream, nave concrete and espresso brown.

The set moves through the circuit's own day: standing at a café's zinc counter with an espresso and a phone that won over the newspaper, crossing a narrow Sentier street mid-conversation with a hand mid-gesture, and standing in Station F's great concrete nave among the containers and glass bays. Three real Paris-founder rituals, not a rented backdrop.

What the pack renders is a photograph — photoreal, a real-looking portrait of you at the counter and in the nave, not a painting or an illustration. Honest note: this is a portrait of you composited into the Sentier, not a photo taken there; it holds up as a LinkedIn photo or a portrait you're proud of, and claiming it as an actual workday is a different use.

The wardrobe stays exact throughout — a charcoal unstructured jacket over a navy fine-gauge knit, sleeves pushed for the street walk, a lanyard half-removed at Station F — the calm of a man whose demo already worked.

How to photograph yourself for a Paris photoshoot

Better source photos make better portraits.

Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight on your face. Avoid overhead bulbs and phone flash — both flatten the face and are the usual reason an AI portrait misses your likeness.
Front or three-quarter angleCamera at eye level, facing it or turned slightly to three-quarter. No selfie-stick uplook, no shot from below.
Face fully clearNo sunglasses, hair off the forehead. A clear, front-facing photo is the best photo for an AI portrait — it gives the model the most of you to work with.
A Parisian's economy of expressionThe register is dry and unhurried — a slight glance up from the phone reads truer than a wide smile against the zinc counter.
Plain background is fineDon't worry about your own backdrop — the Sentier replaces it. A plain wall behind you just helps the model focus on your face.

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
