Photo Guidelines

Your photo is everything.

The better your photo the more stunning your 
portrait. Here's exactly what makes a great 
submission:

IDEAL PHOTO:
✔ Clear sharp focus on your pet's face
✔ Good natural lighting. Window light is perfect
✔ Pet fills most of the frame
✔ High resolution, Recent phone photos work perfectly
✔ Front facing or slight angle with eyes visible
✔ Happy relaxed expression if possible

PLEASE AVOID:
✖ Blurry or out of focus photos
✖ Dark, shadowy, or night photos
✖ Very distant shots where pet is tiny
✖ Heavy filters already applied
✖ Screenshots of other photos
✖ Multiple pets in frame unless requested
✖ Sunglasses, hats, or costumes on pet

PRO TIPS:
🐾 Natural window light always gives the best result
🐾 Get down to your pet's eye level for the shot
🐾 Catch them in a calm moment with relaxed eyes 
   look incredible in the final portrait
🐾 The more personality in the photo the more 
   personality in the art
