One photo in. Shine out.
The phone photo they sent us, and the portrait that came back.
Four steps. You get the good one.
Upload one photo
Phone photos are fine. Eye-level and sharp beats posed and blurry.

Foil color, print only or with the walnut stand, plus a name and dates for the plaque. See the foils

You choose the frame. The portrait itself stays sealed until you open it.

One color. Make it count.
Foil isn't ink. It's a mirror with a temper — it catches whatever light the room gives it.
The classic. Warm in daylight, candlelit at night.
Cool and photographic. Made for black-and-white coats.
Soft and blushing. The most-gifted of the three.
People film this part.
Three seconds of foil leaving a card says more than we can. Some film it for everyone they know. Some keep it just for the room. Both are the point.
Drawn and finished by a person.
No auto-filters, no batch jobs. An artist draws your pet by hand and checks the finished portrait before it's pressed. If your photo won't make a good portrait, they'll say so, and help you pick another.
Heavy card, honest specs.
A4 prints don't fit a standard US frame, so we made the stand. It holds the print at reading angle on any shelf or mantel. No wall, no nails, no trip to the frame shop.
The stand folds flat and ships in the same box. It turns the print into the thing on the shelf people ask about.
Real peels, real words.
Every review PAWBAU has ever received, straight from Judge.me — each one shows the piece it was written for.
You choose the frame and the foil. The portrait stays sealed until you open it.
Tracked, flat, rigid. Never rolled. With you 12 to 15 days from order.
Matte mailer, sealed sheet inside. Zero spoilers on the outside.
Will it look like my pet?
The portrait is drawn and finished by a person working from your photo, and checked before it's pressed. If you open it and it doesn't look like them, we redraw it and press it again, free.
How do I display it?
The walnut stand holds it at reading angle on any shelf or mantel — no wall, no nails. Or use any A4 frame (21 × 29.7 cm / 8.3 × 11.7 in), widely available online.
Do I see it before it ships?
No, and that's deliberate. You choose the frame and the foil; the portrait stays sealed so the reveal is real. If it doesn't look like them when you open it, we redraw and press it again, free.
What if the peel goes wrong?
Then we press it again. Tear it, lift the foil, damage it in transit — tell us and a fresh sealed print ships free. No conditions, no deadline, no small print.
Can I include two pets?
Yes. Send one clear photo of each and the artist composes them in a single frame. If the photos won't work together, we'll email you before anything is pressed.
What photo should I upload?
Sharp, eye-level, good light. A person checks every file before drawing and will flag anything that won't translate.
Can it ship straight to the recipient?
Yes. The packaging has zero spoilers on the outside, and we can tuck a handwritten note inside.
Will the foil dull over time?
It's pigment film sealed to the card, not metal leaf, so it won't tarnish the way leaf does. Keep it out of direct sun, like any print you care about.
