As long as you follow the following guidelines, your photo should be fine for use to use:

 
- Take the photo in good lighting (preferably outdoors). 
- The photo should be at eye level. 
- You don’t need to look straight at the camera (you can if you want to though). 
- Get a close up, not a shot from distance. 
- IMPORTANT – make sure the photo isn’t blurry! 
- Check that no features are out of frame. If we can’t see them, we can’t add them to the portrait! 
- Make sure that the lighting doesn’t affect hair color. If it looks wrong on the photo, it’ll look wrong on the portrait!

The portraits are not ‘paintings’.

Instead, we use cutting-edge digital technology, including photo editing and retouching, as well as sophisticated brush stroke and blending processes. The end result? A portrait fit for a King or Queen!

Yes, but only within 24 hours. After then, we can’t guarantee that we can make the requested changes.

We can’t send you proofs before we begin printing. Our products are very popular and due to this demand it's too time consuming to send proof for every order.

Remember though, we are very talented and skilled at what we do. We’re certain you’ll be pleased with your portrait when it arrives.

We offer three different sizes of canvas frame. The frame itself is made from high-quality, gallery standard materials. The frames have a standard depth/thickness – 1.25”.

The frame sizes are as follows:

8" x 10" 

This smaller frame is perfect as a gift or to surprise to a loved one or friend. This size of portrait requires us to adjust the height-to-width areas, so be aware that you might not be able to see as much of the shoulder area of the costumes compared to the pictures displayed on our product pages.

12" x 16"

This mid-sized canvas is perfect for almost any room in your home – living rooms, dining areas, and entrance halls. Some of our customers like to give it pride of place – above their beds!

18" x 24"

The bigger…the better! This sized frame is the most popular, especially with parents whose love for their children knows no bounds. At this size, every detail and feature of your portrait is blown up for everyone to see. A portrait fit for an Emperor!

Sorry, but we can’t do this. We consider our portraits to be real works of art. We like to keep them classy, true to their Renaissance origins.
