Commission a Portrait

Your pet’s love, captured forever

Your Story, My Brush

A custom pet portrait is more than a likeness — it’s a deeply personal tribute to the bond you share. Whether you’re celebrating a cherished companion, remembering a pet who has passed, or gifting something truly meaningful, I work closely with you to create artwork that captures their spirit and holds a special place in your heart.

 Each commission is approached with care, patience, and an unwavering commitment to quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

What photos should I provide?

Clear, high-resolution photos with good lighting work best. I recommend natural daylight and close-up images that show your pet’s eyes and personality. You’re welcome to send multiple photos — I can combine them to create the perfect composition.

How long does a commission take?

Turnaround time typically ranges from 2–4 weeks depending on size and current bookings. If you need your portrait by a specific date (for a gift, for example), just let me know and I’ll do my best to accommodate!

Do you require a deposit?

Yes, a 50% deposit is required to secure your booking and begin your portrait. The remaining balance is due once the artwork is completed and approved, before shipping.

Can I include more than one pet?

Yes, multiple pets can be included in one portrait. I can also combine pets from different photos. Additional pets may require a larger size and will include an added fee depending on complexity.

Can I request changes during the process?

Absolutely. I’ll share progress photos at key stages so you can be part of the process. Minor adjustments can be made along the way to ensure you’re completely happy with the final piece.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes, I ship both within the UK (£12) and internationally. Your portrait will be carefully packaged to ensure it arrives safely. Shipping costs and delivery times vary depending on location.

“I honestly cried when I opened the portrait on Christmas Day. Katie captured my dog so perfectly from the eyes, the expression, everything felt so real and full of personality. This is something I’ll treasure forever, and it was the most meaningful gift I received. Thank you so much.”
