Free photo check
Will your photo work? Let us take a look.
Old pictures and separate photos can still make meaningful portraits. Send us your images and we will give you an honest assessment of what can be drawn by hand.
Free and without obligation. Decide when you are ready.
Feel confident before you order
Old or unclear photos
We check whether faces and key features are visible. If needed, we suggest an extra reference photo.
Bring people together
Parents, children and grandparents can be brought together from separate photos in one shared portrait.
Personal guidance
We help you choose the style, size, number of people and composition, so you can order with confidence.
We create a new portrait using your reference photos. This is not digital photo restoration, and a photo check does not commit you to a purchase.
Real photos. Meaningful portraits.
See how separate photos can become a shared memory, a thoughtful gift and a portrait that captures the people you love.
Examples from our portfolio. Choose your format, size and number of people when you order.

A few things to know before you order
Is the photo check really free?
Yes. Our personal assessment is free and does not commit you to an order.
Can I send an old or damaged photo?
Yes. We check whether the face, eyes and distinctive features are clear enough. An additional photo of the same person can sometimes help.
Can you combine people from different photos?
Yes. We review perspective, expression and composition to see how your photos can work together naturally.
Do I need to upload every photo when I order?
No. You can place your order first and send your files later with your order number.
Is the portrait made with AI?
No. A real Sketchus artist draws your portrait by hand. The artistic drawing is not made with an automatic AI portrait generator or photo filter.
Will I get a preview?
Every new custom portrait order includes a free preview. You receive it by email after production and before shipping.
Your photo could become a meaningful keepsake.
