Request a portrait

Tell us who it is for

We make a small number each month.

A few details are enough to begin. We will reply with a time for a short call, so you can ask anything you like before deciding.

The portrait can be for you, or for someone else as a gift. If it is a gift, we send you a card to give.

A few details

Is this portrait for you or for someone else?

For example, my mother or my grandfather.

Do they know yet?

For example, an 80th birthday in March.

How would they like to talk?

Hearing, a story that is always told, a part of the life the family knows little about.

We use these details only to reply to you. Privacy

What happens next

A short call, then we begin

First

A short call

After you send the request, you can choose a time for a 15-minute call. We talk about who the portrait is for, what the family hopes to hear, and any questions you have.

Then

We begin

When you are ready, we send the link to the family's private space online, and the first conversation is booked at a time that suits.
