Havanese portrait questions

Will the portrait really look like my Havanese?

Every Havanese portrait starts with an identity passport built from your photos: the exact long, silky coat, the white, cream, gold colouring, the ear set and the eye colour. The finished painting is then compared back against your originals and repainted if it drifts, so what arrives is your Havanese rather than a generic one.

My Havanese has unusual markings — can you keep them?

Unusual markings are the part we protect hardest. A springy little dog with a nation's affection behind it deserves the sweetest, softest possible portrait. A split face, an odd sock, a freckled nose or a scar all get listed in the identity passport and checked one by one in the likeness review.

Which photos work best for a Havanese portrait?

The best Havanese photo is unglamorous: natural light, camera at their height, nothing covering the face. Long and layered coats look best when light comes from the side. Two or three photos from slightly different angles beat one perfect portrait.

Which styles suit a Havanese best?

All twelve styles are open to every dog, but the three shown above suit a Havanese particularly well: a toy toy that reads as affectionate, playful carries those scenes without looking costumed.
