The commission process

A considered process from photograph to framed artwork.

Every portrait is prepared with care, reviewed before printing, and finished as a piece intended to live in your home for years.

Upload your photograph

Choose your favourite image that carries the memory. It does not need to be professionally taken; it simply needs to capture something special. We will guide you on quality before your portrait is created.

Preview and refine

We send you a secure digital preview before anything is printed. You can approve the portrait, request a recreation, or cancel for a full refund before approval.

Framed and delivered

Once approved, your portrait is printed on premium fine art paper, professionally framed, and carefully prepared for delivery. It arrives ready to hang, made for a lasting place in your home.

Materials and craft

Made with the restraint of a gallery piece.

Each portrait is prepared for fine art printing and presented in materials chosen for weight, texture, and permanence.

Fine art paper Archival-quality print Framed to order
Luxury frame materials

Curated frame finishes

Choose from two carefully selected frame styles: a refined black box frame for a clean, gallery-like finish, or an antique gold classic frame for a warmer, heritage-inspired look. Both have been chosen to complement the painterly character of each portrait and make the finished piece feel considered, elevated, and ready to hang.

Premium Paper

Fine art paper

Printed on Hahnemühle German Etching, selected for its archival quality, heavyweight feel, and beautifully textured matte finish. The result is a portrait with depth, softness, and the quiet presence of a gallery piece.

Giclée printing

Giclée printing

Each portrait is produced using fine art Giclée printing, chosen for its rich colour, soft tonal depth, and precise reproduction of painterly detail. The result is a print with the presence and refinement of a finished artwork, not a standard photo print.

Questions

Before you begin your portrait.

Photographs, previews, fulfilment, frames, gifts and returns—explained before you order.

Will I see my portrait before it is printed?

Yes. You will receive a digital preview before your portrait enters production. You can request changes at this stage, or cancel your order for a full refund if it is not right for you.

What happens if my photograph is not suitable?

We review every uploaded photograph before creating your portrait. If the image quality is too low or unsuitable, we will contact you and help you choose a better photograph. If no suitable image is available, your order can be cancelled and refunded.

Can I request changes to the portrait?

Yes. After receiving your preview, you can request a recreation before approving it for production. Your selected crop, frame and size form part of the order you review at checkout; contact support before approval if an order detail is wrong.

What happens if my portrait arrives damaged?

Contact us with photographs of the damage and packaging. We will arrange a replacement at no additional cost, provided the damage is reported within the period stated in our delivery policy.

Your first preview is prepared in up to 5 working days with Standard, or within 1 working day with Express. After approval, allow up to 4 working days for printing and framing. UK shipping takes up to 3 working days with Standard, or typically 1–2 working days with Express. Express includes both priority creation and express shipping.
