Quick Photo Tips
Get a close up of your pet. This way I can better see all of their beautiful features.
Get an eye-level shot by crouching down when taking the photo.
It is best if you take the photo when your pet is either sitting or standing, not laying down.
Light plays an important role in good photos. For best results, take your photo outdoors, in daylight.
How it works
1 - Choose your size
Consider the size of the portrait. Will it be a small painting that you can display on a shelf, or a larger piece that will hang on your wall?
2 - Choose framing
When it comes to portraits, the right frame can make all the difference. Not only can it enhance the aesthetic of the piece, but it also provides long-term protection.
That's why I offer four framing options with every portrait - because I believe that every client deserves to have their artwork displayed in a way that they love.
And while sometimes opting in for an unframed portrait may seem like the more budget-friendly option, it often ends up costing just as much, if not more.
By choosing one of my pre-framed options, you'll be able to hang your portrait immediately upon receiving it - no running around trying to find the right frame for your piece.
Ultimately, my goal is for you to be able to sit back and enjoy your framed portrait for years to come.
3 - Add your pet's name
Even though it may seem like a small customization, adding your pet's name brings an extra level of charm and allows you to truly express your love for your furry friend.
And don't worry about whether you want the name included or not - simply specify that by writing "no name" in the designated text box and I'll leave it off.
4 - Upload photos of your pet
A great pet portrait begins with a great photo. It should be in focus, good quality, and taken in the daylight. It is also best if the shot is taken at eye level with the pet, and not at an angle from above.
Not sure which image to choose? Need help?
That’s okay! Feel free to upload any photo you have in mind, and if it is not suitable for a portrait, I will reach out to you and help you pick the right one.
You'll see every brush stroke and every last detail of your pet on this portrait.
Unlike digital illustrations or photoshopped images, watercolor paintings reflect your pet's loving spirit with their soft colors and subtle nuances.
This is no ordinary print. I hand paint your custom pet portrait and reproduce it in the finest quality.
Guaranteed to last a lifetime.
Your pet portrait will be printed on gallery-quality paper and come with ready-to-hang components pre-attached to the high-quality frame.

“Wow is all I can say!My friends organised a peekaboo picture of my beautiful dog Levi who sadly passed away a few weeks ago and it’s the most beautiful picture, so special. I loved it so much that I ordered another 3, one of our other puppy Theo and 2 for family members as Christmas gifts of their dogs. This lady has some serious talent behind her, absolutely unbelievable. Couldn’t be happier”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I searched many options before choosing RomaLena for my pet portraits. I admit I was very afraid of being disappointed but it's just the opposite - I'm in love. The quality is excellent, the portraits are not digital (like so many other vendors) they're actually hand-painted water colors and they arrived exactly on time. My framer even commented that he had framed a lot of pets and this style was the nicest he had seen” - Terilyn
