02 / Your photograph
One photo isall it takes.
We do not simply paint whatever sits in the middle of the photograph. First, we find your actual home and every part connected to it.

Fast where it matters.Obsessive where it counts.
01
The photograph
Show us the whole place.
Upload the clearest photograph you have. Cars, bins, grey skies and ordinary phone cameras are all part of the job.
02
The architecture
Confirm what is yours.
Before paint touches paper, we outline the complete property—including extensions, bays, rooflines and the correct half of a semi.

Good questions.Straight answers.
Still wondering? Write to us at hello@heldportraits.co.uk.
01Will it actually look like my house?+
That is the whole point. We identify the exact property first, map the connected parts and check the finished portrait against its windows, door, roofline, chimney and shared-wall relationship. If it misses the architecture, it does not pass.
02What if my photograph has cars, bins or neighbours in it?+
That is completely normal. The portrait removes everyday clutter and lets adjacent homes recede, while keeping the real structure of your property truthful.
03Is the preview genuinely free?+
Yes. No card details and no obligation. An email address keeps the finished portrait at a private link so you can return to it.
04Is every portrait checked?+
Yes. Automated architecture checks happen before the reveal, and a person reviews the final crop and print file before a paid order is released to production.
05Can I buy only the digital file?+
Yes. A print-ready digital download is £12 on its own, or £9 when added to a physical order.
06What happens if the frame arrives damaged?+
We remake and reship it without charge. You will not be asked to return the damaged piece.
