Here's some general guidelines for your photographs
1. Please provide a selection of photographs of your animal
(about five or six photos is a good number).
2. Whether you choose to order online or via the mail, photos can be emailed or mailed.
(I always return any photo's that are sent to me).
3. You may wish to suggest a preferred photograph for me to work from, or which photo best reflects the subjects eyes or coat color.
(This information can be written in the "Additional information" box when ordering via the mail, or email me if ordering online).
4. If your pet has died and you only have poor photos please read this FAQ for more information.
Below are some ideal examples of photographs.
Ideal example.
Poor photo examples
1.Overhead shots cause the portrait to have a "contorted" feel.
2. The dog is not filling the photo, making it difficult to see the detail of the coat and eyes, etc.
Tips for the best possible portrait result:
1. Photograph outside (avoid indoor flash).
If it's a sunny day, make sure the sun is behind you to the left or right.
2. Your pet should fill the photo
3. Try to get down to the animals level
4. Photos should be in focus and in color
If you'd like a portrait in time for Christmas, please remember to allow plenty of time and order well in advance.
