Capturing Kevin’s heart-warming personality.

This was the first time I have ever experienced having a portrait done and Naomi made the experience perfect. I loved how she wanted to get to know my dog’s characteristics before starting and really added a lot of life to the portrait. The finished product exceeded my expectations and was absolutely amazing.

Milana and I reviewed several lovely photos of Kevin, looking for that perfect reference picture for me to draw his portrait from. Milana said Kevin smiles constantly, even when he’s sleeping, so we knew his portrait had to reflect that. We chose a photo that really captured his glorious beaming grin and happy nature. The photo was taken at the local baseball ground so that was an extra lovely touch.
Choosing a head and shoulders pose meant that the portrait focused in on his wonderfully expressive face, and in particular the smile in his eyes.
The light cream background colour contrasted well against his silky black fur, and brought out the glossy shine in his coat. It also gave the portrait a homely feel, which was fitting for Kevin, whose happy place is snuggled on the sofa with Milana.
Milana and Kevin live over in Vancouver, Canada, so Kevin’s portrait had to be carefully packaged to ensure its safe arrival. It arrived in perfect condition and Milana was over the moon. She loved it so much, she couldn’t stop looking at it. Kevin also wholeheartedly approved, and happily posed next to it for a few proud photos!
