How Long Does a Custom Portrait Take?
Turnaround depends on the current studio queue, reference quality, complexity, and delivery format. Planning early always gives the best gift experience.
Photo quality affects speed
A clear reference photo reduces back-and-forth and gives the studio a stronger starting point. Blurry or damaged photos can take longer to assess.
Digital delivery is faster than physical delivery
A print-ready digital file avoids shipping time. If you plan to frame the portrait yourself, add printing and framing time to your gift deadline.
Order before the occasion feels urgent
For birthdays, anniversaries, and memorial dates, order early enough to allow artwork creation, printing, framing, and wrapping.

Does the site offer 24-48 hour delivery?
The current site references 24-48 hour soft-copy delivery for many orders. Always confirm timing in the order flow if you have a fixed deadline.
Can printing add extra time?
Yes. Even after digital delivery, your local print shop or framer may need additional time.
