How long will it take for a painting or shoes to arrive?
Shoes:You will need to book your shoes onto the calendar for completion in time for dress fitting schedules if applicable.This will be discussed once you pay your booking deposit. Shoes are needed for approx 4-6 weeks usually although lead times can be shorter on request. Portraits: From confirmation of order and receipt of deposit or redemption of voucher, you should allow 4 weeks for your artwork to be completed and arrive. It may be ready much quicker than this depending on back orders at any given time. If you need a picture urgently for a special occasion please contact me by email.
Can I have a drawing of how my shoes will look before I order?
After you have put down a deposit you will get sketched ideas of your design and we will work together to reach your perfect shoe. Unfortunately designs can't be given before you order due to the time it takes. Hopefully by looking at existing designs I have done you can get an idea of how I can achieve something beautiful for you and my style.
What paint do you use on my shoes and is it waterproof?
I use a variety of professional grade inks and paints carefully matched to the material/surface of the shoe. They are water resistant and will NOT wash off. However the nature of the service is that it is a hand made item and not industrially produced and as such must be treated with due care (no jumping in puddles!) All my shoes so far have seen the day out with their brides both rain and shine with 100% success rates!
Is my picture in a frame?
No, Due to postal costs and breakages all artwork will be sent mounted ready to be framed in protective cellophane. Standard beautiful moment portraits fit a 16 x 20" frame. However if you are local to my Studio in Harlow and would like me to arrange framing this can be discussed further and a quote given.
I want a picture/have a voucher and I'm not sure what sort of photographs I should send as none of my pictures seem suitable, what shall I do?
Its sometimes hard to imagine how an illustration can be made from a few snapshots when you may not be artistically inclined! Just trust me that between us we will create something lovely. Send what you have and give a few details and I can use my skill and experience to make your beautiful moment artwork happen!
Do you only do Bridal shoes and pictures?
No, Your shoes can be for any occasion!Treat yourself! Beautiful Moment Artwork can be whatever you chose.
