You choose
- Which animal, from your own photo
- Which of the seven lighting setups
- Print, canvas, framed print or framed canvas
- The size, from eighty-eight options
- Whether to order at all, after seeing it
You upload one photo, choose one of seven studio lighting setups, and see the finished portrait on screen. Then you pick paper, canvas or a frame, and it ships to the address you give us.
Nothing is charged until you have seen the result.
Image generated with AI
That last line matters, so it is worth being blunt: the portrait is produced by an artificial intelligence model from your photograph. It is not painted, not drawn, and not shot in a studio. We disclose it here, on the result screen and in the metadata of the file we print, as Article 50 of the EU AI Act requires.
A ceiling bulb flattens a face: no shadow, no shape, no depth in the eyes. A studio setup puts a large soft source off to one side and lets the other side fall away. That single change is most of the distance between a snapshot and something you would frame.
Which is why the seven setups are the real choice on this site, and why you get to see all four applied to your own photo before deciding.
A phone photo is fine. Face visible, eyes open. Nothing has to sit still and the photo does not have to be good.
Seven studio setups, from the gentlest to the most dramatic. You see each one applied to your own photo.
The finished portrait appears on screen. If you like it, choose a size and we print it. If you do not, you close the tab.
Cotton paper, no frame. Frame it yourself or clip it to the wall.
Stretched over a wooden bar. Hangs as it comes, no glass in the way.
Wooden frame and mat board. Arrives ready to hang, hanger fitted.
Canvas in a floater frame. The heaviest of the four, and the one that reads as a piece.
The animal, which comes from your photograph, and then the lighting setup, the format and the size. The pose comes from the photo you upload — we do not put your pet in a costume or a new position.
You choose among the seven studio setups, each of which has its own backdrop, from bright to nearly black. There is no free-form background editor.
No. The file we print is the portrait itself, with no text on it. If you want a name, engraved plates for frames are sold everywhere and cost very little.
One. If you have a better one, use the better one — but a single usable photo is the whole requirement.
Yes. People often order the same portrait twice in different formats — a canvas for themselves, a framed print for a parent.
You see the finished portrait before paying, which is where most of that risk goes. Once printed, a piece made from your own photo cannot be resold, so it is not returnable. The terms page spells this out.
