How to send my photos?

Send photos

We suggest you to send your photos at the end of the product page, or by the "send photos" button at the top right of the home page.

You can also send them by email to contact@votreportrait.fr.

Also, before ordering, you can receive a free diagnosis of your pictures to be sure the quality of your photo is enough to create a personalised portrait.



For a couple portrait, can we send two photos?

Couple photography

Our graphic designer can make a photo-montage by bringing people together for the final portrait. Note that a couple photo counts for the price of 2 faces.



Do you remove the photos background, behind the characters?

Cropping and deleted background

Our graphic designer delete the background to keep only people, except for a photo mosaic portrait where the background is an integral part of the creation.



Specific for my mosaic photo portrait

How many (digital) photos should I send for my mosaic ?

Number of photos for a nice photo mosaic

Minimum 200 and maximum 1500. A mosaic is composed of about 2500 photos, so there will be repetitions (but not same picture side by side). The more photos you send, the fewer duplications. To have more variety, we can have manual extracts in the photos where there are several people. All the photos you send us will be present in the composition.



How to send hundreds of photos for my portrait?

Send photos for your photo mosaic

On our site by clicking on the button "send photos" or by the website wetransfer.com. Note that sending a lot of photos by our website may take a little time.



What are the advices for the main photo?

Advices main picture

People must be close, the colors varied and the light rather uniform. If people are far on the photo, this is still possible but it will be necessary to choose a larger size of mosaic.



Will we see the small pictures on my mosaic portrait?

zoom on photo mosaic

My photomosaic portrait is bluffing because from far you can see the main photo and up close you can see all the small pictures. The larger the portrait size, the bigger the photos will be.



About the overviews and the creation of my portrait

Can I see a free preview of my portrait before ordering?

Hand-made creation

Creations are not automated, they are done with care by our graphic designer and take a long time. That's why we can't give a free preview. However, after your order has been finalised and the preview sent by mail, you can ask us for free modifications (lines, colors, shadows, but no change of style or new photo), so as to refine your personalised canvas photo and satisfy you fully.



Can I ask for changes on the preview of my portrait?

Changes portrait preview

After the reception of your preview, you will be able to ask for modifications (ex: lines, colors) so that your portrait satisfies you completely. However, if we have to restart the work with another photo or in a different style, the creation costs will be putting on the bill (17£ per face, 21£ per face for the Artist Touch style, and 44£ for the mosaic style).



Can I have a preview of my portrait in different styles?

No preview in different styles

It's not possible to have a preview of your portrait in 2 different styles because the creation's techniques aren't the same. we should start creation work again. If you have doubts, our graphic designer will advise you by e-mail of the best photo. However, if you really want a preview of 2 different styles, you will have to participate in the creation costs, 17£ per face worked in a new style . (21£ per face for Artist Touch style 44£ for the mosaic style). On the other hand, when you receive a preview, you will be able to ask us some modifications (ex: lines, colors) for free.



Can I have more than one preview if I hesitate between photos?

You must choose one picture

Yes, in return for an additional cost of 17£ per face (21£ per face for Artist Touch style and 44£ for mosaic style). If you hesitate between several photos, we will advise you of the most suitable photo. When you receive a preview, you can ask to the graphic designer for changes (ex : lines, colors) several times.
