Frequently Asked Questions

Is a custom portrait a good 18th birthday gift?

Yes — it is one of our most popular 18th birthday gifts: personal, unexpected, and the kind of thing people keep on the wall. Upload a photo, pick a style, and preview it free before you order.

What do you get someone who has everything for their 18th?

A custom portrait of themselves in a style they love — it's the rare gift a "has everything" person can't buy for themselves, and it celebrates the milestone in a way no gadget can.

Can a couple, family, or pet be in it?

Yes — choose a design made for the number of subjects you want and upload a clear photo of each.

What photo should I upload?

A clear, well-lit, front-facing photo works best — phone photos are perfectly fine. The sharper the photo, the more detailed the portrait.

Will it arrive in time?

The preview is instant and the digital download is immediate, so even a last-minute birthday is covered; printed canvases ship fast with full tracking.
