Recommended Resolution

Use a high-resolution image (at least 2000px on the shortest side). Most smartphone photos are fine—just ensure the image is sharp and well lit.

Make Your Pet the Star

• Keep your pet centered and in focus.
• Avoid cropped ears, paws, or tails (unless choosing a Bust portrait).
• Use natural light or soft indoor light; avoid heavy shadows.

Camera Angle

For a classic portrait, photograph your pet straight on or close to a forward-facing position. Unless you want a specific stylistic angle, a near-front shot is ideal. We will paint your animal close to exactly as they appear in your chosen photo.

Backgrounds

A clean, simple background helps us capture detail—but note that we do not include backgrounds in the final artwork. Your pet will be isolated on a white or near-white background for a gallery look.
