Terms & Conditions



Pre-production Layout & Artwork Proportions

Before we start creating the actual artwork, every customer is presented with a detailed layout derived from their submitted photographs. This layout acts as a blueprint for the commissioned artwork, ensuring it is produced to scale. This means that the final artwork will closely match the proportions and details of the approved layout, ensuring accuracy and customer satisfaction.

For abstract and free-style artwork requests, customers should specify their preferred style. If not indicated, artworks will be crafted in line with the styles showcased in our gallery.

Additional Costs

Customizations such as backgrounds, themes, props, or any alterations may incur additional charges. Please contact us for a custom quote.

Delivery Commitment

While we strive to meet specified delivery dates, custom nature of our artworks might cause unexpected delays. Whataportrait.com isn't liable for delivery delays, especially those resulting from revision requests.

Orders with Deadlines

For all orders with specified deadlines, we mandate a 100% upfront payment. This advance payment enables us to allocate sufficient resources and prioritize your order, ensuring timely delivery to meet your needs.

Payment Terms

We require a 20% partial payment to begin working on your artwork. Please note that this 20% partial payment is non-refundable. The remaining 80% balance will be due after you approve the preview and before we proceed with shipping. Additionally, if the main picture submitted is blurry or of low quality, we will require 100% upfront payment to commence the artwork. This policy ensures that we can dedicate the necessary resources to deliver a high-quality final product that meets your expectations.

Payments and Pricing

Artworks will only be shipped once all due payments are cleared. Delays in shipping due to outstanding payments are not Whataportrait.com's responsibility. Pricing may vary based on the complexity and difficulty of the provided photograph. However, any increase in price will only be marginal, ensuring affordability.

Delivery and Revisions

We earnestly strive to deliver each piece within the specified time-frame stated on the website. For priority delivery, we request each customer to notify us while placing their order about the date that they would like to receive their artwork by.
