Custom Golden Retriever Portraits

A custom golden retriever portrait from L'Atelier is your own golden placed into an original French scene and printed on matte canvas in the USA, from $99. A golden brings its own light into a room, so we keep the coat, the feathering and the soft eyes true to your photos. Send 2 or more photos, see a proof in 24 to 48 hours with as many changes as you like, and include up to 3 dogs. Framed or frameless, with free shipping in the US.

Examples. Your canvas is made with your own dog, from your photos.

Photographing your Golden Retriever

Golden coats glow in sunlight and burn out easily. Photograph your golden in open shade or on a bright overcast day, never in direct midday sun. Get down to eye level so the face is not foreshortened, and take 1 photo that shows the feathering on the legs and tail. If your golden is red or very pale, a photo in neutral daylight helps us match the exact color.

Scenes that suit a Golden Retriever

How it works

Choose a scene, send at least 2 photos of your dog, and we place your dog into it. You see a proof within 24 to 48 hours and can ask for as many changes as you like. Your canvas is printed in the USA, framed or frameless, and ships free in the US.

Questions

How much does a custom golden retriever portrait cost?

From $99 for a frameless 9 x 12 in canvas, and from $139 framed. A golden stretched out on a daybed in a panoramic scene such as L'Orangerie starts at $149. Shipping is free in the US.

Will the canvas get my golden's coat color right?

Yes. We match the coat from your photos, whether it is red, gold or cream, and you can ask for changes on the proof until it looks right.

Can I include 2 or 3 dogs in 1 portrait?

Yes, up to 3 dogs. Send photos of each dog, and the proof shows them together in the scene, whether that is 2 goldens or a golden and its best friend.

Can you make a golden retriever memorial portrait from old photos?

Yes. We work with the photos you have, older prints and phone photos included, and you can ask for as many changes on the proof as you need until it looks like your dog.

Is a golden retriever portrait from L'Atelier a painting?

No. It is a painting-style portrait printed on canvas: your golden placed into an original scene, printed on matte canvas in the USA and finished framed or frameless.

Is the dog in the examples my dog?

No. The dogs shown are examples. Your canvas is made with your own dog, from the photos you send.

How long does it take?

Your proof comes back within 24 to 48 hours. Once you approve it, printing and finishing take 2 to 3 days (3 to 5 from mid-November through December), and delivery another 1 to 3 days (2 to 4 in that season), so most canvases arrive 3 to 7 days after you order.
