Not only are our portraits amazingly stunning, they are very cost effective with prices from just £15. One of the best things about ordering a picture from Charlie’s drawings is the ease of it all. You can take a photo off your phone or camera and upload it then order on our website, yes its really that easy.

One of the most unique reasons to get a portrait from your photos with Charlie’s drawings in connecting people who did not get the chance to meet in person. Taking separate photos of people who never got the chance to meet and drawing them into a beautiful portrait is just the perfect way to create an emotional one off gift. Photos can be from separate occasions and even eras. So if it’s an emotional Grandparent / Grandchild portrait or yourself with a much missed family member.

Family portraits are also another great gift for everyone, even the people who are incredibly hard to buy for. The thought of getting the whole family together for long enough to get a portrait drawn brings shivers down most peoples spines. The great thing about our portraits is they can be drawn from separate photos and all done with a click of a button. All you need is a nice snapshot of everyone and we do the rest of the work.

Step one – choose your ideal photos.

When choosing the ideal photos you should consider a few things, the main things is that you can see facial details clearly. Now these don’t need to be professional quality because who has that, most smartphones have a pretty outstanding camera today so phone pictures are great. If you have any old photos floating around in draws and you want to use them, then instead of sending them in by post just take a photo of your old photo. This will usually allow us to use your much-loved treasured photo without risking it with royal mail.

Step two – choose your style

The next most important thing is to choose your portrait style, here at Charlie’s Drawings we offer some amazing styles that can choose from.
