​The better the photograph, the better your portrait will be! 

Take close up facial photographs with the face, eyes, nose, and hair in sharp focus.

Make sure you are able to see things such as nose texture, individual hairs, whiskers, eye colour, and reflections in the eye.

Zoom in on your photo to make sure the details are still clear and not grainy. 

Go outside! Use natural light rather than a flash whenever possible.

Make sure that the lighting in the photo shows your pet's true eye and hair colour. 

Take lots of photos in different poses so that together we can select the most appropriate one.

Take the photograph from the level of your pet.

Please avoid bandanas or other clothing, as well as photos where your pet is covered in snow.

Use treats to get your pet to pay attention to you or ask a friend for help!
