Requirement: Must be able to provide a high quality photo of pet for me to draw from. Please see the photo guide below.

Time frame: Portraits are done in the order I receive bookings. Each portrait takes a while (50+ hours) so the time frame will vary depending on how long the wait list is. I will actively update the wait time (listed above) so you can see how long the wait is before you decide to secure your booking.

Progress photos: Option to receive progress photos via email or posts on social media (@remdrawtime on instagram) to make sure you are satisfied with how the the drawing is turning out. I am always open to feedback if you want me to adjust anything. I want to make sure you are 100% satisfied with the finished product.

1. The better the photo quality, the better the portrait will be. You can take a good quality photo with a phone camera (all pictures below except the golden retriever are taken with an iphone.) However, if you do have a high quality DSLR camera, that would be preferred.

2. The photo should focus on your pet’s face and eyes as that will be the emphasis of the portrait. Make sure you can see the whites and reflection in their eyes as well as the detail of their fur. This is what will make your pet’s portrait look very realistic.

3. No flash! Take your photo in the daytime using natural daylight. Outside is fine as long as it isn’t in direct sunlight. The best condition to take a photo outside is when it is slightly overcast as it provides the most even daylight.

4. Have your pet looking at or towards the camera. Hold a treat near your camera to get them to look directly at it.

5. If your pet that has passed away and you only have old photos, please send me the best ones you can find I will will try my best to work with what you have.

Once you have read all the guidelines, please send me an email at remiyasui@gmail.com with your photo(s) attached to secure your booking! If you are unsure about your photo, feel free to send me multiple pictures and I can help you pick which one is best.
