Zapotec Weaver Portraits
Nine photos of you in one setting
How your model is created from your photos
Every pack on Narcis, made with your face
Nine photographs of you in one setting: one pack of the Narcis catalogue.
Nine photographs of you, styled as a Teotitlán del Valle Zapotec weaver — a treadle loom with a diamond-pattern rug, cochineal-red and indigo wool drying, a hung finished piece against adobe walls, in portrait format. The nine vary in crop, expression and light, so there are real choices, not nine identical files.

The Teotitlán Loom register
This pack draws on the Zapotec-loom register — colour-rich and warm, Oaxaca's weaving staged in the weaver's own courtyard. An embroidered blouse with a woven skirt or jeans, hair braided with ribbon, a rebozo in one frame; the palette runs cochineal red, indigo, adobe, and Sierra blue.
Three situations carry it: seated at the treadle loom with the shuttle mid-pass and a diamond-pattern rug growing, warm patio light; standing among skeins of red and indigo wool drying on a line, hands stained, laughing; standing before a hung finished rug with arms folded, rebozo over the shoulder, calm pride. The output is photoreal — a real oaxaca weaver photoshoot of you at the loom, not an illustration.
How to photograph yourself for an oaxaca weaver photoshoot
Better source photos make better portraits.
- Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight. Avoid overhead bulbs and flash.
- Front or three-quarter angleEye level, facing forward or turned slightly. No selfie-stick uplook.
- Face fully clearHair off the forehead or braided back, no sunglasses. The model needs a clean read of your face at the loom.
- A warm, easy expressionThis register wants real warmth — a laugh among the dye skeins, quiet pride at the finished rug, not a stiff studio smile.
- Plain background is fineThe loom, the dye line, and the hung rug replace whatever's behind you — a plain wall just helps the model focus on your face.
Frequently asked questions
- Will it actually look like a real oaxaca weaver photoshoot?
- Yes. The output is photoreal — a real-looking photograph of you at the treadle loom, among the dye skeins, or before a hung rug. Not a painting, not a cartoon.
- Which scenes does the pack cover?
- Three that trace the weaver's own courtyard: the shuttle mid-pass at the loom, standing among drying wool skeins, and posed before a finished rug. Nine portraits, three per scene.
- Why Teotitlán del Valle?
- It's Oaxaca's own weaving village — cochineal and indigo dye, treadle looms, diamond-pattern rugs, all still made in family courtyards. The pack stages that exact place, not a generic market stall.
- How is this different from the Banarasi Weaver pack?
- This pack is Oaxaca's Zapotec wool weaving, dyed with cochineal red and indigo. Banarasi is Varanasi's silk-and-gold-zari pit loom. Different looms, different worlds — pick the one that matches yours.
- Does this pack work for men?
- This pack renders as a female sitter by default, matching the register described.
- Can I use it commercially?
- It's for personal use — profile pictures, prints, gifts — not licensed stock photography for resale or ad campaigns.
- Who is this pack for?
- Weavers and textile lovers, anyone with roots in Oaxaca, and gift-givers hunting something more specific than a generic Mexican-blanket photo.
- 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
