It is your dog
Drop ears or pricked ears, a long or a short muzzle, the grey of an old dog: the portrait follows the photo, not a breed standard. Anyone who knows your dog recognises him at once.
Custom dog portraits
A dog portrait from your own photo
One photo of your dog is enough. We compose the portrait in the style you choose, you judge it before you pay, and five working days later it hangs — printed on 308 g/m² Hahnemühle cotton paper, frame included.
Why here
A dog is not an average dog
Sixty styles, one character
From a general in uniform to a single unbroken line. Every style is built around the head you send us — the muzzle, the brows, the set of the ears.
You see it beforehand
No surprise at the door: you judge the portrait before you pay for anything. We print only after your approval, in pigment ink, with every sheet checked by hand.
The unveiling
From kitchen photo to masterpiece
On the left the photo you send us, on the right what the atelier makes of it. Slide the beam of light and judge for yourself.
“The King” — from this home photo
The collection
Styles that flatter a dog
Six of sixty — chosen because they draw the most out of a dog’s face. The whole wall hangs further on.
What you send
The photo a dog portrait deserves
I
At eye level
Get down on your knees, or put the dog on the sofa. From above, every dog becomes a head with a small body — and that is rarely how you see him.
II
Daylight from the side
In the garden or by the window, without flash. Side light draws the texture of the coat and the gleam in the eyes; a flash turns a dark dog into a silhouette.
III
The head large, the ears whole
Come close, but keep the ears in the frame — drop ears included. A tongue is fine; a ball in the mouth less so.

Questions about the dog portrait
Yes — that is the whole commission. The portrait is built from your photo, with the shape of the head, the set of the ears and the pattern of the coat as fixed anchors. We judge every preview for likeness before you see it, and you approve it yourself.
Yes. A wire-haired dachshund stays wire-haired, an old Labrador keeps his grey muzzle. Those details are exactly what make it the portrait of your dog, and we guard them at review.
Certainly. A black dog asks for a photo in good daylight so the coat keeps its detail and the eyes do not disappear. If in doubt, send the photo in — we will tell you honestly whether it gives enough to work with.
Yes. Many portraits are made precisely in remembrance. For those requests we keep a quieter room of our own — the memorial portrait.
For the dog who is no longer here, we keep a quieter room of our own.
