Examples from our studio
This modern pet portrait keeps the animal as it actually looks. You get the head and chest in a realistic finish on one plain background colour you choose, with the name alongside. Black is the suggested frame, and you can change the colour.
Shoot in good daylight without flash, at your pet's eye level, whole head in frame, close enough to see the eyes. One pet per photo, and a phone photo is fine. Our studio examples show the style on four dogs, two cats and a chestnut horse.
Swap the black frame for oak look or white. Framed prints use a 20 mm timber frame and an acrylic front. The white mount adds the gallery border. With no mount, the picture fills the frame. Canvas hangs on a 38 mm stretcher bar, and art prints come unframed. Sizes: A4 (21 x 29.7 cm), square (30 x 30 cm), A3 (29.7 x 42 cm), A2 (42 x 59.4 cm). The style is made on a clear background, so it sits on any colour you pick, dark ones too, and your colour prints as the background on white matte art paper.
Add one photo and the preview appears in under a minute, free and watermarked, before you pay. The close-up shows detail, and the On the wall view places it in a room. Adding the name is free, up to 24 characters.

Which frame colour suits a modern pet portrait?
The suggested frame colour is picked for you on the style page, and for the Modern style it is black. You can change it to oak look or white on the same page.
Does the Modern style work for cats and horses?
Yes. The style is a realistic finish on the head and chest, and our studio examples show it on four dogs, two cats and a chestnut horse, so you can compare a modern dog portrait with a cat before you add your own photo.
How does the background colour work in the Modern style?
The portrait is made on a clear background, so the colour you choose is what prints behind your pet. Warm white, sage, blush, sand, sky, navy, forest, terracotta and charcoal are all available, and dark colours work too. Your colour prints as the background on white matte art paper.
Can one portrait have two pets, or me with my pet?
One portrait holds up to three pets, or you with your pet, one pet with one or two people, or two pets with one person. Add one photo per pet and per person, and a selfie is fine. With a person in the portrait, one photo of everyone together also works, and you confirm you hold the rights to the photos. Separate photos come out side by side, close together, nobody hugging or holding. No extra cost. A few styles stop at two pets, shown on the style page.
What changes can I ask for on my portrait?
Each style page has an optional Special requests box above Add to cart. Our design team reads your note and makes the change before your proof, included in the price. People ask for the name smaller or larger, the name centred or moved up or down, wider or tighter letter spacing, two names over two lines, a background colour outside the swatches, a collar, lead or harness left out, a stray object behind the pet tidied away, the crop adjusted for more room above the ears, or an eye colour or coat marking corrected.
What if it does not look like my pet?
You are the judge, first in the free preview before you pay. If it is not right, try another photo or another style at no cost. Write what you would like adjusted in the Special requests box. After you order, a designer reviews the portrait to make sure it will print well, then you receive a proof. Nothing is printed until you approve the proof, and if you want it refined at the proof, we refine it at no cost.
