Traditional Oil Paintings from your Photoshoot

By our Award Winning Artist, Steve Haigh

Sometimes there's nothing quite like an oil painting. Even as photographers, we appreciate that an oil painting has a very different role to play in a home and in some settings even the best framed photographs would look out of place. So now we have the best solution for when only a oil painting will do. We have partnered with an Award winning painter (see all his awards listed below)

Using traditional oils on canvas and taking about 3 weeks of work by the artist to complete, Steve painstakingly looks at a number of photos from your photo shoot as the basis for your portrait in Oils. Painted with great care and attention to detail he ensures that he gets the closest feel and style of the original photograph, while simultaneously seeking to capture, as closely as possible, the true personality of the subject.

Prices for a 24x18 inch (61x46cm) canvas is £2490. Your painting can then be framed by our partner Framer who specialises in framing Oils, or by your own preferred framer.
