The styles

Seven period styles for the two of you

Each style dresses you both for its own age: brocades and jewels for Duke & Duchess, a gilded salon for Palace Portrait, an English park for Aristocratic Estate. Choose one now. You can always try another before you order.

Royal Court, Create in this style
Velvet, ermine and gold: the full ceremony of a court portrait, lit as if by candlelight.
Noble Lady, Create in this style
Silks, pearls and a gentle light, in the refined spirit of eighteenth-century portraiture.
Duke & Duchess, Create in this style
Brocades, jewels and a composed, confident pose: nobility at its most assured.
Military Commander, Create in this style
A braided uniform, gilded epaulettes and a heroic stance, in the tradition of the great officer portraits.
Palace Portrait, Create in this style
Marble columns, heavy drapery and gilded interiors: a portrait set within the grandeur of a palace.
Golden Age, Create in this style
Deep shadow and luminous light, in the spirit of the Dutch Golden Age masters.
Aristocratic Estate, Create in this style
An open landscape, a country house in the distance and the easy elegance of the English country portrait.

Choosing the photo

One photo together, or one each

For a couple portrait, upload one photo of the two of you, or two separate photos. One photo works best when you both face the camera, your faces are of a similar size and neither is half-hidden. Separate photos are the better choice when your only picture together was taken from afar: choose two with similar light, as if you had sat for the painter on the same afternoon.

A wedding photo, a holiday snapshot or a picture from your first years together can all work, as long as both faces are clear. After you upload, we check that we can see both faces and tell you if a sharper or brighter photo would help. More advice in our guide to choosing a photo for a custom portrait.

Create Your Couple Portrait

Can we use two separate photos?

Yes. Choose Couple, then upload one photo of the two of you or one photo of each. Separate photos give the best result when their light and angle are similar. Please make sure you have your partner's permission to use their photo: we ask you to confirm it before uploading.

Will it arrive in time for our anniversary or wedding?

Every print and canvas is made to order: production takes 3 to 5 business days, and most Standard orders arrive within 7 to 14 business days in total, with free shipping. Delivery times are estimates, so allow a little extra time before a special date. If the day is close, the Digital Artwork is sent by email shortly after your order, ready to share.

Can I give a couple portrait as a gift?

Yes: to your partner, or to parents, grandparents or friends for their anniversary. Upload their photo with their permission and approve the portrait yourself. Then enter their address at checkout: we ship it straight to them, free on every print and canvas, and no receipt or invoice is included in the parcel.

Which style suits a couple?

Duke & Duchess, with its brocades, jewels and composed pose, is a natural choice for two. Palace Portrait sets you in a gilded salon, Noble Lady in silks and pearls, and Aristocratic Estate outdoors, before a country house. Your first preview is free, and you can try up to 3 more times for each portrait, in the same style or another.

Can our dog or cat be in the portrait with us?

A couple portrait brings together two people, without pets. To appear with your dog or cat, choose Person + Pet: one person and their companion, together in one portrait.
