An Attorney Portrait Courthouse Steps in Charcoal

The charcoal-grey register

This pack borrows the documented register of an advocate on the marble steps of a courthouse in November — grey columns, a grey sky, and a charcoal wool suit with a trimmed moustache and a leather briefcase.

Photographically the register is camaïeu: wool, marble, and sky share one charcoal-grey hue, held apart by texture and the direction of light, even overcast light from above.

Three settings carry it: on the marble steps with a column behind under even overcast light; under the portico's columns, the shadow side deep; and half-length at a bronze door held to a value, marble around.

The output is photoreal — a real-looking photograph of you in that world, not a painting or a film still. It's a portrait built from your own uploaded face in an advocate's charcoal suit; it doesn't depict any specific real person.

How to photograph yourself for an attorney portrait

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 register goes on.

1. Even, soft lightStand near a window with indirect daylight on your face. The pack builds its own even, overcast light on top of a clear, flat selfie.
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 glasses in the source photo. A clear, front-facing photo is the best input for an AI portrait.
4. A composed expressionThe register favours an easy, confident stance over a big grin — it blends more naturally into the courthouse-step frames.
5. Plain background is fineThe pack's own settings replace your backdrop 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 photograph, not a painting or a film still — built around a documented advocate's register: a charcoal suit, a briefcase, marble courthouse steps.

Is this a photo of a real person, or of me?

It's a portrait of you. The pack borrows an advocate's documented register — the suit, the briefcase, the steps — as a costume and setting; every frame is generated from your own uploaded face and doesn't depict any specific real person.

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 first. The full pack is nine photos across the pack's three settings — different crops, expressions, and light.

How is this different from a generic AI headshot filter?

Most generic AI headshots default to a flat studio backdrop. This pack is anchored to a documented advocate's register — the charcoal-grey camaïeu, the marble steps, the portico columns — so it reads as a specific world, not a template swap.

Can women use this pack?

The styling and sample set are built for men — the suit, the moustache — so it reads masculine. 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, better lighting is the fastest fix.

Can I use this for LinkedIn or a firm bio?

Yes — it's built for exactly that register: confident, dignified, and unmistakably yours, for a firm bio, a government page, or a LinkedIn profile.

What happens to the photo I upload?

Your photo is processed on European servers, used only to generate your preview and your pack. It is not sold or shared with third parties.

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.
