Pet Portraits from Photos
Your photos and descriptions are what I will work from for your pet portrait. The quality of the photos is directly related to the success of the finished product. I will work with any photos you may have, but you may also want to consider taking some new photos with the portrait specifically in mind.
Pet photo tips and tricks
High resolution digital photos with clear details are the best to work from. But printed photos, old and new will work too.
Pet portraits usually look best when your pet is not facing straight into the camera or look like they're sniffing the camera. It might be helpful to have something to distract your pet from looking straight into the camera.
Even, ambient (all-over) light is usually best.
Close-ups of your pet's face, head-and-shoulders shots, and full-body shots are all helpful even if they may not directly relate to the portraits finished look. They all help me get a feel for your pet's character, colors and visual details. Send as many pictures as you'd like and I can work out the final composition.
I can remove or replace the background from a reference photo. I especially like to simplify or remove backgrounds completely in favor of more focus on the subject.
If you'd like to include a background, good subjects can be familiar places such as a field you take walks together in, a garden they play in or a favorite ray of sunlight for napping. And, I can combine a favorite pet photo with a different background picture supplied by you or something I can provide that we'll agree on.
