For a custom 3D portrait, send a sharp, well-lit image with the face clearly visible and a natural expression. Useful extra angles can explain features the main photo hides. Artiqra's FAQ says good mobile photos are suitable and that its team reviews references before production.
Choose clarity before background or occasion
A beautiful background does not help if the face is tiny, blurred or hidden by shadow. Check the eyes, nose, mouth and hairline at a comfortable viewing size. Avoid heavy beauty filters that alter facial structure. Keep the original file where possible instead of sending a screenshot of a social media image.
Give each reference a clear purpose
Select one main photograph and explain whether it should guide the expression, hairstyle or outfit. Add another angle only when it reveals useful information. Sending many contradictory photographs without instructions can create confusion. A short note such as "use the smile in photo one and the current hairstyle in photo two" gives the team something specific to assess.
Prepare couple, family and pet references carefully
For people together, ensure every face is visible rather than assuming one clear subject compensates for another hidden one. For pets, show the face and distinctive markings in soft light. If subjects come from separate photographs, ask about feasibility and composition before ordering. The availability of extra references does not guarantee every arrangement is possible.
What to do if your only photo is imperfect
Send the best available original and explain why the memory matters. Ask for an assessment before committing to details that the image cannot show. Do not use an AI-restored face as unquestioned evidence of real features; restoration can invent details. If available, include another authentic photo to help clarify the person's appearance.
