How do I commission a pet portrait?

Step One

Send me an email/use my contact form if you’re thinking of commissioning a portrait, I can discuss your portrait with you and let you know current timeframes.
Step Two

If you’re happy with the timescales I require a 30% deposit to secure your place on my waiting list - this can be paid by PayPal or bank transfer - I can send you the details and a reference code via email.
Step Three

Look out some great digital photographs, or take some new ones! See my page on tips for a great reference photo! Let me know your pets name and some aspects of their personality as it really helps to convey more of them in the portrait.
Step Four

Send your favourite photos over to me; a few weeks before I start your portrait I will assess which photo will look best and work on a potential layout. I’ll send you a few mock ups so you can choose a layout and paper colour. Once you have indicated your preference I will be ready to start your portrait.
Step Five

I will keep you updated on my progress and send you a photograph of your finished portrait to check, if anything needs changing at this point I will happily change it for you. Once the portrait is completed and you are satisfied I will ask for the final payment of the remaining 70%.
Step Six

Once your balance has been paid I will post your portrait to you. I would love to know when it’s arrived safely with you and to see it up in your home.
