CUSTOM PET PORTRAITS

TO ORDER

If you are interested in commissioning a portrait, please read the following.

I require at least 2 to 3 clear and detailed photos of your pet. The 3 photos must be of your pet’s adorable face and photos that have them looking at the camera head on, and their head should be least 3 inches large in the actual photo itself.

Once you contact me with your inquiry & 2-3 photos, I will respond as soon as possible and then we can discuss the specifics of your order and try to customize it to be special for you and your pet.

–I request a 50% deposit to begin your custom piece, the remainder plus shipping to be paid upon completion. I will let you know when your item is completed and expect the final payment before shipping.

-Once the piece is started the deposit is non-refundable as the materials and time have still been spent on your request.

-Prices do not include shipping costs, which will be determined based on your order and location. In certain instances I can accommodate drop offs in areas of Brooklyn and Manhattan for a small delivery fee.

-Accepted payment methods: PayPal, Zelle Quickpay, Venmo, or Cash

Tips for Getting the Perfect Photo

I understand getting these perfect photos can be tricky, so here are some of my personal tips for photographing pets.

*Take them with a digital or high quality phone camera, while having a friend hold a treat right above your head.

*Make a attention grabbing noise, but not the one you would usually use to “call” them over to you.

*Try to get the light source above and behind you but don’t cast a shadow over them.

*Try not to use flash, it can wash out the color and detail of your pets beautiful features. (However flash photos are preferred to low-lit photos)

*The best lighting scenario is outdoors on cloudy day (early afternoon), or by a window indoors (with the window behind you).
