Photo Guide
Getting a great custom canvas starts with a great photo!
Follow these simple tips to make sure your uploaded picture gives us the best shot at creating something you'll love forever.
Tips For The Perfect Canvas:
Take the photo straight on, with your chin level or slightly raised.
Use a high-quality photo where all facial features remain clear when zoomed in. Also make sure the photo is bright and clear.
Make sure your entire head is visible in the photo with nothing cropped or hidden (hair, beard, etc should be visible).
No perfect photo? No worries!
Upload what you have and we’ll do our magic—turning it into a portrait worthy of being Canvas Me Crazy’d.
If your photo is lower quality:
Some facial details may be less defined, but the final portrait will still look fantastic.
Only have a black and white photo?
No problem. We can create your portrait from it, and the final piece will be beautifully rendered in black and white.
If your photo is old, cracked, or unclear:
We can restore it and transform it into a vivid, beautiful portrait.
Photo with a group of people?
Upload it and leave us a note pointing out the person you'd like us to use.
Special Requests? No Problem.
If there’s anything in the photo you’d like modified, let us know in the order notes. We can make a range of edits to help create your perfect portrait.
Change hairstyle:
Prefer a different hairstyle? Just tell us in the order notes and we can modify it.
Remove glasses, tattoos, piercings, skin imperfections
Prefer a cleaner look? We can remove glasses, tattoos, piercings, and small skin imperfections.
Remove hair accessories:

Enhance or Remove Makeup:
Makeup adjustments can be made to better match the portrait style.
Works with Any Skin Tone
We carefully match the skin tone from your photo to the portrait so the final artwork looks natural and true to the person in the image.
