Examples from our studio
Crown, lace ruff and ermine: the full royal treatment, for the pet who already rules the household. The Royal is a royal pet portrait: your dog, cat or horse as a monarch in an antique oil-painting look. Any dog or cat owner who has watched a pet claim the armchair will laugh. Hang it in a hallway, a living room or above a fireplace.
Skip the flash, use good daylight, keep the camera level with your pet's eyes, and have your pet face you with the whole head in frame. A phone shot is fine. For the frame, you can choose oak look, black or white. On framed prints, the white mount sits inside the frame as the gallery border.
Add a photo and your pet appears in the look in under a minute. The preview costs nothing and carries a watermark. It starts with a close look at the entire piece, and an On the wall view places it in a room. Your pet's name comes free, and you can add a year beneath it. A designer checks every portrait before it prints.
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.
Does the crown cover my pet's ears or face?
No. The crown is small and sits low between the ears, so the ears and face stay clear, and the lace ruff runs under the chin. Add one photo and the free preview shows where the crown and ruff land before you pay.
Which frame suits The Royal?
You can choose an oak look, black or white frame before you order. The framed print comes ready to hang, with a 20 mm timber frame and a shatterproof acrylic front.
Do cats and horses work in this style?
Yes. A cat or horse follows the same steps as a dog, with one photo and the same crown, ruff and robe. Examples from our studio cover four dogs, a tabby and white cat, a grey shorthair and a chestnut horse. A royal dog portrait or a cat in that dress can be checked on screen before you pay.
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.
