FAQs

Here you’ll find answers to the most common questions about portraits, timing, and the process. If something isn’t covered, feel free to reach out.

When will I receive my portrait?

The current delivery window is 3–4 weeks from the moment photos are submitted. If you ordered just a furry friend portrait, the delivery window is 1 week.

A limited number of rush delivery slots (1 week) are available upon request and subject to availability.

If you need your portrait sooner, please contact me before ordering to check availability.


How do I send my photos?

After checkout, you’ll receive a confirmation email with a link to the Photo & Details Guide, explaining what to send and how to send it.


What kind of photos do you need?

I’ll need a few photos of each person (and furry friends, if included).

Clear photos of faces and full-body photos work best.

You’re also welcome to share references for clothing, accessories, or small details you’d like me to consider.


I don’t have photos of everyone together. Is that a problem?

Not at all. You can send separate photos of each person, and I’ll bring them together in the final portrait.


Do the portraits come printed?

Portraits are delivered as high-resolution digital files and also printed in a 6x8inches print, if you order a couple or family portrait, and in a 5x7inches print, if you ordered a furry friend portrait. I also include a waterproof sticker of your portrait.

If you want a bigger print, contact me, and I'll let you know available sizes and prices.


Can I choose clothing and other details?

Yes. After checkout, you’ll be able to share clothing preferences and any other details you’d like me to consider.

If nothing specific is requested, I’ll make choices that best suit the portrait.


Can I choose the background color?

Portraits are created with a clean, balanced background by default.

You’re welcome to suggest a color if you have one in mind.

A detailed background can also be added as an optional add-on.


I want to order a portrait as a gift, but I don’t have photos yet. What should I do?

You can order a gift certificate instead.

This allows you to gift a portrait without needing photos right away.

The recipient can contact me later to start the process.


Can I make changes after I see the preview?

Yes. Small adjustments are included to make sure the portrait feels right before final delivery.


Can I cancel my order?

Cancellations are accepted before photos are submitted.

Cancellations must be requested within 6 months of the original purchase date. After six months, cancellations are no longer accepted.

Once photos are sent, time is reserved in my schedule and cancellations are no longer possible.


What file format will I receive?

You’ll receive high-resolution digital files suitable for printing in multiple sizes and a 6x8inches print, if you order a couple or family portrait, and a 5x7inches print, if you ordered a furry friend portrait.
