FAQ

Questions, answered

How long does it take?

Your free preview is ready in about a minute. After you order, we make your print in 2–5 business days, and shipping within the US usually takes 3–7 business days. You'll get a tracking number by email as soon as it ships.

Can I use more than one photo?

Yes. You can upload up to 3 photos — for example, two people photographed separately, or you and your pet. We'll bring everyone together in one portrait. Use the note field to tell us anything special.

What photos work best?

Clear, well-lit photos where faces are sharp and easy to see. Avoid sunglasses, heavy filters and very small or blurry faces. A regular phone photo is perfect.

Will it look like me?

Our AI is tuned to keep faces recognizable, and you always see the preview before you pay. If something isn't right, tap Try again or Change something. The watermark only appears on the preview — your print and file come without it.

Can I change something in my portrait?

Yes. Tap Change something and describe what to adjust — for example "make the background darker" or "add our dog". Or tap Try again for a fresh version in the same style. Each new version uses one of your free previews.

What sizes are available?

Canvas: 12×16, 16×20 and 24×30 in. Poster: 12×16, 18×24 and 24×36 in. You can also get the Digital 4K file and print it anywhere you like.

How much is shipping?

Shipping is free on every order within the United States. Prints are made and shipped from the USA.

What if my print arrives damaged?

Contact us within 30 days of delivery with a photo of the damage and we'll reprint it for free. Because every portrait is made to order, we can't accept returns for a change of mind — that's why you see and approve your preview before you buy.

What happens to my photos?

Your photos are used only to create your portrait. They are processed by our AI partners for that purpose only — we don't keep your original photos, unordered portraits are deleted after 30 days, and we never sell your images.

How can I pay?

All major credit and debit cards (processed securely by Stripe) and PayPal. Checkout is handled by Shopify, so your payment details are never stored by us.
