Step 2: Reference Photo
Next, you'll need a high-quality photograph of your pet. It's important that the photos you select capture your pet's character and provide clear visibility of their eyes and other features. In general, photos taken at your pet's eye level in natural light (outside or by a window) tend to work best. I would usually encourage you to send multiple photos so I can get a good sense of your pet and their features. This also allows us to select the most suitable picture together if you are unsure.
This step is crucial in the process—the clearer the photo, the better the final portrait will be!
