Pet Portrait Photo Guidelines

You can capture a great photo with a smart phone! The best portraits are created from clear, well-lit, focused images. The more clarity I can see in your photo, the more I can include in the artwork. Here are some quick guidelines to help you take or choose the optimal photo for your project.

Your photo is clear and well-lit.

Natural lighting is optimal. The ideal photo is not blurry or taken in darker places. It is not filtered or edited.
