I work from
photographs; and if possible, I prefer to take my own photos
so I can meet and get a feel for each individual pet. If you
live somewhat close by, I can go to your house or you and your
pet can visit my studio. There is no charge for taking my own
photographs, but I will charge a travel expense if you live
farther than 30 miles from my studio.
If we can not arrange for me to take photos, I will work from
your submitted photos. I will need around 4 or 5 closeups,
clear photos to work from. Even if there is one specific photo
you would like the portrait done from, I would still like to
see other pictures so I can get a sense of your pet's personality.
Remember, if I don't get to meet your pet, the only information
I have to work with is the photos you provide. Accurate and
clear photos minimally tell me what color the eyes and coat
are and ideally should convey some expression or mood. I will
return all your photos with the completed portrait - I know
how important photos are, especially if your pet has passed
away.
Please E-Mail me
if you have any questions, or use the online Order
Form to submit your information. I would love to hear about
your pet and know their special ways and personality.
