Email Your Photo:

  1. Exact Profile: exact side view.

    1. Good contrast between subject and background

    2. In-focus

    3. Straight face, closed mouth (no smiles, or talking, or tongues, or grimaces)

    4. If making a Half-Length silhouette: include the whole head in the profile photo, down to the belly button.

    5. Hair suggestion: female hair looks best in silhouettes when styled up, half-up, in bun, braid, ponytail, curly or layered style.

    6. Send several profile photos of the person, taken a second or two apart (if possible). Taking a few photos allows the sitter to be relaxed, and also allows you to readjust your shot to get a true profile (sideways). You should not see the eyelashes of the other side of the face. Make sure you vary your position to take a photo to get the side view.

    7. Please send your photos within 12 hours of making your order. Sending your photos early makes sure that your photos are able to be connected with your order.

  2. Tip for a great portrait: if you are a woman or a girl, put your hair up or back. Ponytails, buns, or braids look exceptional in silhouettes; long, loose hair does not look as classically beautiful as these styles.
