When possible I prefer to work from a studio-quality photo. Sharp focus and good strong lights and darks are so important in describing the subject’s features. Please keep in mind - the better the photograph, the better the results.
However, if a studio photo is not available I can use a quality snapshot. Natural light is preferred, as flash has a tendency to wash out shadows and contrast – so important in capturing a likeness. The more reference photos you are able to provide, the better. The heads should be at least 1 ½ inches high in the photo(s).
Delivery time is generally 3-4 weeks. If you would like the portrait done for a specific date or holiday please mention this when placing your order and I will do my best to have it finished in plenty of time for your special day!
