To make your silhouette, you'll need to take a photo in profile of the subject.
It doesn't have to be fancy! Just a clear image snapped with your phone will do.
When taking a photograph, please follow these guidelines so that we can cut the most accurate portrait possible.
-Take a profile shot of the subject, at their eye level.
-Be sure the subject is looking straight ahead, with a relaxed expression and lips closed.
-Include the subject's full head/hair and shoulders.
-If possible, a simple background is best. (For example, against a wall or solid curtain.)
*If photographing a wiggly child, we always suggest that you catch them while they are watching a video or enlist help from someone to catch their attention. It'll make your job much easier.
*If photographing an animal, enlist help from someone to catch their attention with a treat or toy.
Below are two good example photos.
