A close-up where the face fills most of the frame.
Natural daylight, with no harsh flash or heavy shadows.
Taken at eye level, looking towards the camera.

Framing & sizing

Why we sell our prints unframed

Most of our prints ship unframed, so you can choose a frame you love rather than pay for one you'd swap out.

Pick your own look. Match the frame to your room, oak, black or white wood, or a mounted gallery style.
Don't pay twice. A frame you didn't choose often gets replaced. Unframed keeps the cost on the artwork.
Ships flat and safe. A flat-packed print travels far better than glass.

Prefer it ready to hang? Add a fitted black, white or natural wood frame at the size step above.

Choosing a frame that fits

Our prints come in three standard sizes, so an off-the-shelf frame is easy to find:

21 × 29.7 cm (A4) — fits any standard A4 frame.
30 × 40 cm — a common ready-made frame size.
45 × 60 cm — a popular large size, also widely sold ready-made.

Two easy ways to frame it:

Frame to size. Buy a frame in the exact size above, no mount needed.
Use a mount (mat). Choose a slightly larger frame with a mount cut to your print size, for a gallery look with a border.

Tip: check the frame's artwork opening (not its outer size), and look for a real glass or acrylic front.

How it'll look on your wall

Here's how the three sizes compare against a standard three-seat sofa (about 2 m wide) and an adult, for scale:

Above a sofa or sideboard, most people choose 30 × 40 or 45 × 60 cm. For a shelf or a gallery wall of several prints, A4 works well.

About this print

Some photos capture the way your child reaches for you, arms up, head tucked in, that particular lean that only belongs to the two of you. This print starts there. Send us that photo and our artist reimagines it as a soft watercolour portrait, the kind that earns a place on the wall and stays there.

It's an artist-reimagined digital watercolour, made from your own photo, not a filter, not a template. The result is a finished piece that reads as art: gentle washes of colour, real warmth in the composition. A thoughtful gift for a new mum with a newborn she can't put down, or for any mother who'd love to see that hug rendered in something she could actually hang.

Before anything prints, we send a free digital proof. You check it, ask for any changes and only confirm when you love it, nothing prints until you approve. Choose from three sizes (21 × 29.7 cm, 30 × 40 cm or 45 × 60 cm) and add a wood frame in Black, White or Natural for an extra £30. Delivered in days.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use any photo, even one taken on a phone?

Yes. Most customers send a phone photo and the results are just as good. The main thing is that the subjects are clear and recognisably themselves. If you're not sure whether yours will work, send it over and we'll let you know before you commit.

What does the free digital proof actually show me?

You'll see the full artwork, your photo reimagined as a watercolour, before we send anything to print. If the colours, the composition or any detail isn't quite right, tell us and we'll adjust it. Nothing is printed until you approve.

Is this a hand-painted original?

No, and we're upfront about that. It's an artist-reimagined digital watercolour made from your photo and printed on premium paper. The finish looks and feels like art, but it isn't a physical painting. Honesty is the point: the free proof exists because there's nothing hidden in the process.

Which size works best for a mother and child portrait?

The 30 × 40 cm is the most popular for this subject, large enough to show the detail in faces and expressions, but easy to place on most walls. If you're planning to frame it, the 21 × 29.7 cm is a good desk or shelf size. The 45 × 60 cm makes a real statement above a bed or sofa.

What if I don't like the proof?

Then we change it. The proof stage is there so you can ask for tweaks to the colours, the background or the likeness, and we'll keep revising until you're happy. Nothing goes to print until you approve it.

Can I return it if I change my mind?

Because every print is made to order from your photo, we can't accept returns for a change of mind. You approve a free digital proof before we print anything, so there are no surprises. And if a print arrives damaged or not as approved, we'll put it right straight away.
