“Helen captured my dear little dog, Colin from Accounts, so well, with so much detail, that I actually started believing that I was actually looking at real Colin.”

reference photographs
For most commissions I will work from your photographs.
Here are a few important things that I need to be able to work from a photo.
LIGHT
Ensure the subject is well-lit, preferably with natural daylight. A good test is in the eyes; can you see their colour? Do they have a reflection? If not, its likely too dark.
POSE
The subject must be large in the frame or it will pixelate when I zoom in. An unusual angle, or interesting expression will make for a unique portrait. Pick one that suits their character.
QUALITY
Your photo MUST be in focus and taken with a decent camera. Modern mobile phones are usually fine. Clean the lens before taking a phone photo, it makes a big difference.
DOWNLOADS
Don't download a photo from social media sites as they squash the original file size and I cant zoom in for details. Better to find the original if you still have it.
COPYRIGHT
Only send photos you have taken yourself, unless you get permission from the photographer to use them.
