Choosing the Best Photo for Your Custom Pet Portrait
A great portrait captures your pet’s unique spirit, personality, and charm, creating a work of art you’ll treasure. At Wild Lilli, every custom portrait is crafted with attention to detail, and the photo you choose is important in achieving a beautiful result. We’ve created this guide to help you select a photo that brings out the best in your pet, ensuring that their one-of-a-kind personality shines through in the final artwork.
Here are a few tips to make sure your photo captures your pet perfectly:
Perfect!
Awesome!
Adorable!
Images should be in focus
Blurry photos can hide important details. Choose a high-resolution image with sharp focus. If your pet is dark haired avoid dark backgrounds.
Choose natural lighting
Aim for even or natural lighting. If the photo is taken in direct sunlight be mindful of shadows that may cover your pet's features.
Take your photo at eye-level
Photos taken from above aren't ideal. Try to get down to your pet's height or raise smaller pets for an eye-to-eye shot.
All features are showing
Ensure your pet’s head, ears, and any defining features are entirely in the frame so we can highlight everything that makes them special
Avoid awkward poses
Photos with your pet in an unusual posture, like lying down or looking over their shoulder, are difficult to position into the design.
Too far away
Avoid photos where your pet is far from the camera. A close-up head and shoulders view helps us capture their features fully and clearly.
