This is a memorial portrait for a pet who has passed away

I’m so sorry for your loss. There’s no rush with any of this. If you’d like to tell me a little about them below, it helps me capture who they were.

Your photos — at least one; clear, well-lit photos showing the eyes and markings work best

Please add at least one photo of your pet.

Those photos are too large to send together. Try removing one, or email them to me instead.

Background colour

Every portrait includes a simple one-tone background. Would you like something more detailed, like a garden or a favourite blanket? Mention it below and I’ll quote the small extra.
