Examples from our studio
Only the head and front paws of your pet appear in the peek-a-boo pet portrait, breaking the bottom edge of the picture with the paws resting there. Behind them is a deep chocolate brown background, lit softly from one side, with detailed fur in a painted photo look.
Black is our suggested frame colour, and the other frame colours can be swapped in on the style page. The white mount is for framed prints only. Without it the picture runs to the frame edge. Send a photo with your pet facing the camera and the whole head visible.
How it works
1. Pick a style
27 styles, from royal oil to fine line.
2. Add one photo
See your pet in that style in under a minute, free. Try other styles with the same photo.
3. Frame it
Pick a frame, size and name.
4. Proof, then print
A designer reviews your portrait for print quality, you approve a proof before anything goes to press, and it is printed in Australia.
Which frame colour suits the peek-a-boo pet portrait?
The style page starts you on black, the frame our studio suggests for this look, and any of the other colours can be chosen when you order. A white mount is an option on framed prints only, where it forms the gallery border inside the frame. Leave the mount off and the printed picture runs to the edge of the frame.
Does the peek-a-boo style work for cats and horses?
Yes. The examples from our studio show this style on four dogs, two cats and a chestnut horse, and the dogs include a cavalier King Charles spaniel. A peek-a-boo dog portrait is built the same way as one of a cat: the head and front paws break the bottom of the picture, the paws sit on that edge, and behind them is the deep chocolate brown background.
What photo shows the fur detail in a peek-a-boo portrait?
A phone photo works well. Shoot in good daylight without a flash, hold the camera level with your pet's eyes and have your pet face you. Keep the whole head in the frame and move in until the eyes are clear. One pet per photo. JPG, PNG, WebP and HEIC files up to 15 MB are accepted. If a file is too small or blurry, the page says so as you add it.
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.
