💌 THE PROCESS
- Drop me an email (hello@benjyandfriends.com) with good quality photos, and a clear description of what you are looking for (eg. A simple pet portrait, a family portrait etc)
- I’ll reach out if I have further questions or remarks, otherwise I’ll email you with a quote based on your request (keep an eye on your spam folder).
- Once you accept the quote, you’ll receive an invoice and payment request.
- If you would like a family portrait, you can send through individual photos of the pets, and I will put them together according to your description.
- Full upfront payment is required before I begin your artwork.
- There are a limited number of commission slots per month, which work on a first paid first served basis. Once payment is received and reflected, your slot will be confirmed.
- Turnaround time is 1–4 weeks, depending on complexity. An anticipated deadline will be confirmed with you before work commences but after payment. If you have a deadline in mind, please also let us know so we can let you know if we are able to meet your expectations.
