ACCURATE: Good photos will be sharp and avoid zooming which seriously affects image accuracy. Blurry photos will not give a clear enough view of the details and it will become very complex to capture the right lighting.

WELL LIT: the best lighting will be that which comes from behind the photographer and which can then illuminate the person, animal or objects photographed from the front. It is also important to avoid shadow areas on the faces which will prevent the final realization of the pop art.

TAKEN INSIDE: We recommend that you send us photos taken inside because photos taken outside tend to cast shadows on the faces which do not allow our teams to guarantee you a satisfactory result. .
