How it works
How your pet’s portrait is made
From one favourite photo to a framed close-up portrait, at your own pace. Here is every step, including what happens after you pay.
Six steps from photo to frame
- 1
Add their name and details
Enter your pet’s name, and their dates and a short message if you would like. These are set into the portrait.
- 2
Upload a favourite photo
Choose a clear, well-lit photo where their face and eyes are easy to see. JPG, PNG or HEIC, up to 15 MB. Portraits are close-up head-and-neck portraits.
- 3
Choose a style and see a free preview
Pick Soft watercolour, Classic oil painting or Gentle pencil & gold. Previews are low resolution and watermarked. Compare styles on the portrait styles page.

Check the preview carefully
AI can sometimes get markings, eye colour or ear shape wrong. If it is not right, do not approve or pay. You can regenerate up to 3 times after the first preview per photo (4 in total), within a limit of 10 previews per day.

Choose a framed size and pay
Select 8 × 10, 12 × 16 or 16 × 20 inches and pay securely through Stripe. Approximate centimetre dimensions are listed alongside each size. See prices and sizes.
