The portrait session you never have to book
A premium printed wall calendar, shipped free to your door.

A real wall calendar, printed and posted to your door
This is the calendar itself, not a download: twelve months and a cover on thick paper with a silky finish, joined by a metal binding, with a hole to hang it by. Open on the wall it measures 11 by 17 inches (A4 pages in the UK and Europe). We post it free, usually five to seven business days after you approve it.

What a portrait sitting usually takes
The usual way
- Find a photographer who is good with animals, then wait for a date that works.
- Bath, brush, and everyone into the car.
- An hour on the floor hoping they all look at the lens at the same moment.
- Wait for the edits, choose from a gallery, pay for the sitting and then for the prints.
- And you still do not have a calendar.
The Picture Perfect way
- Pick a few photos you already have. About ten minutes at the kitchen table.
- We style all twelve months, one for every season of the year.
- See four of them free, and change anything that is not right.
- Approve every page. Only then do we print it and post it to you.
No sitting fee. No print packages. Nothing to put in the diary.
How it works
- 1
Send us a few photos
The ones you already have are the right ones. A clear face, a couple of angles, and a full length shot if you have one.
- 2
We style every month
The seat, the flowers, the light and the season. Your pets are placed together on one styled set, faces to the camera, coats uncovered.
- 3
You say yes, or you change it
Look through the pages, have any picture redrawn or adjusted, and nothing goes to the printer until you have approved every one.
Every picture is made by our AI from the photos you send. There is no camera and no appointment, and nothing is printed until you approve it.
What makes it Picture Perfect
Everyone in the picture, looking at you
If you have more than one, they sit side by side on the same seat at the same distance, every face turned to the camera. That is the shot that is hardest to get in a real sitting, and the one we are asked for most.
A set for every season
Daffodils and a weathered garden shed in March. Wisteria over an old stone wall in May. Climbing roses in June. A seaside porch in August. Apples and late dahlias in September. A fir garland on the staircase in December.
Nothing they have to sit still for
No studio, no lights, no treats held above a camera. The pictures are made from the photos you send, which is why a shy dog, a busy kitten and a pet who is no longer with you can all have their year.
Twelve months, twelve sittings
This is our own example calendar, start to finish. Minnie and Nala are our two dachshunds. Yours will star your own.

Know someone who would love this?
Send it to the friend with more photos of her dog than of her children. She will know the feeling of trying to get all three to look at the camera at once.
Questions people ask
- Does my dog have to sit still for anything?
- No. There is no camera and no appointment. We work from the photos you upload, so your dog can stay asleep on the sofa while you choose them.
- Does this work for cats and other pets?
- Yes. Dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, hamsters, guinea pigs and horses all work the same way, and you can mix them. A dog and a cat sit together on the same seat like any other pair.
- I have three dogs. Are they all in it?
- Yes. Every pet you add is in every month, side by side on the same seat with their faces to the camera. Most of our calendars star more than one.
- How does this actually work?
- You send a few photos of your pets. We use the world's most advanced AI image models to create each month from those reference photos, so every picture is of your own pets rather than a stock animal that looks a little like them. There is no camera and no appointment, and nothing is printed until you have approved all twelve months.
- What if a picture does not look like her?
- Have it redrawn, or tell us what to change in your own words, before anything is printed. Nothing goes to the printer until you have approved all twelve months and the cover.
- Do I get the digital files as well?
- Yes, at no extra cost. Your order page holds the high resolution PDF we send to the printer, and every month's artwork as its own high resolution image, so you can reprint a favourite, frame one or share it.
- Can I make one of a pet who has passed away?
- Yes, and many people do. We only need the photos you already have. If you would like a hand choosing them, reply to any of our emails and a person will answer you.
- Is the preview really free?
- Yes. You see four months of your own pets in Picture Perfect before you decide, with no card and no obligation.
- When will it arrive?
- We print close to where you live and post it free. Most calendars arrive within five to seven business days of your approval.
