How It Works: Create a Portrait in 3 Easy Steps
Some gifts are opened and forgotten. Not this one.
At Welham & Co, we turn your favorite memories into custom portraits in just three simple steps - simply upload your photo(s), add a personal message, and preview your artwork before you pay.
Step 1: Upload Your Photos
It all starts with a photo - or a few. Upload them with you order, or if you’re still choosing the perfect ones, you can send them to us later.
Want something even more special? With our ‘Combine Photos’ add-on, we can blend loved ones from different photos into one beautiful portrait.


Step 2: Bring The Story to Life
Add a heartfelt message - we’ll print it with your portrait in our signature font, creating a timeless keepsake. Choose a framed print, poster, or a beautifully textured canvas, in sizes up to 24×36".
Whether it’s displayed on a wall or unwrapped for the first time, your gift will be a memory they treasure forever.
Step 3: See It First, Then Say "Yes"
You deserve to fall in love with your portrait before you pay. That’s why we offer $0 Upfront - you’ll receive your proof in just 1-3 days, and only pay when you’re 100% happy. Change your mind? Cancel anytime.
When the wrapping is pulled away and they see their portrait for the first time - you’ll know you created something they’ll never forget.

Helpful tips to get a great photo
- Upload a clear, high resolution photo
- Avoid photos with dark lighting
- Please avoid using any filters to ensure we can color your artwork correctly
- Make sure everything you would like shown in the artwork is visible in the image
Not sure if your photo will work? You can still place your order and either upload your images now or later. Our artists can review your photos once received and let you know if anything needs changing.
We understand it’s not always possible to follow every guideline, and in most cases, we can still create your custom portrait without issue.
Still unsure? Feel free to email your image to us (support@welhamandco.com) and we'll happily take a look.
