1 - Reference Photo
Please have ready some high-quality photographs to show me.
These don’t have to be professional - a good phone camera will do! If you’re unsure which photo will work best, send them all and we can decide together.
(please send photos via WeTransfer or by cloud to avoid low-quality compression)
Top Tip: Read this blog-post for my best tips on how to photograph your pet!
2 - Select a Size
Decide on the size for your portrait - it will be bigger once framed too.
Your size will depend on your photo detail, your wall space, and of course your budget. If you’re not sure what size to go for, just ask!
(You’ll find all my sizes on the pricelist below)
Top Tip: Measure your walls, and add 2-3 inches around each edge for framing!
3 - Book!
Get in touch to book! I request a 25% deposit to secure your slot; the balance is due on completion.
You can frame your commission through me, or opt for extras such as greeting cards or prints. Ask me anytime during your commission about these!
(frames are locally sourced through my framer and glazer, at an additional cost)
Top Tip: Check out the shop for other personalised pet gifts!
