Photo Guide

Choosing the Perfect Photo

A great portrait starts with a great photo.

✔ Clear, high-quality image
✔ Good natural lighting
✔ Face and neck fully visible
✔ No heavy filters
✔ Front-facing is ideal (but any pose works!)

Please note: Accessories like harnesses are removed by default unless you'd like us to include them.

Still not sure if your photo works?

Just email it to us at hello@keepsakekrate.com to ask.

If you're honouring a pet who's no longer with you, we know your photo options may be limited. In many cases, we're still able to create a beautiful portrait from older or less-than-perfect photos.

In most instances, we can still make it work.
