Let’s Create Something Special

I’d love to create a portrait of your companion. Please include a clear, well-lit reference photo where your pet’s eyes and features are easy to see. Natural light works best, and sharp photos taken at your pet’s eye level usually give the best result. Avoid blurry, dark, heavily filtered, or tightly cropped images. You’re welcome to send more than one photo so we can choose the strongest reference. Pricing depends on the portrait size, number of pets, and any special requests, and I’ll confirm those details with you before I begin.

Pricing

Custom pet portraits, priced simply

Every portrait starts with a base price that includes one pet. Add-ons depend on what you'd like included. Prices below are placeholders and will be updated soon.

Additional subjects

​

Additional subjects may be included for an additional fee. Pricing depends on portrait size, composition, and level of detail. Please inquire for a custom quote.

Turnaround time & Shipping

Most portraits are completed in approximately 2–3 weeks, depending on size and complexity. I’ll confirm the estimated completion date when your commission is scheduled.

Shipping time is additional. Original portraits are carefully packaged for protection, and shipping costs are calculated separately based on size and destination. Local pickup may be arranged.

Background detail

Included

Each portrait includes a soft, complementary pastel wash, thoughtfully chosen to enhance your pet’s coloring and keep the focus on their personality. If you prefer a more detailed or customized background, please discuss it with me when ordering. Additional charges may apply depending on complexity.

Final quote

Every portrait is unique. Once I have reviewed your preferences and reference photos, I’ll provide a personalized quote for your approval before beginning your commission.

A 50% deposit is required to reserve your commission.
The remaining balance is due before shipping or local pickup.

I’ll keep you updated as your portrait progresses and can share a progress photo along the way.
