Male Birthday Gifts and anniversary gifts...hmmm…a tough one…no way!
I remember this lady who emailed me from an Australian Navy vessel stationed in the Gulf; she wanted to get her husband a unique gift which symbolised their commitment to each other in picture form. (They had been married for a long time - a fifteenth wedding anniversary - I thought about it for a while and said to her…
“Sheryl listen, I really don’t know you well enough to be suggesting gifts like that for you and your husband…I don’t know what to say.”
Anyway, that’s the last I thought I’ve ever hear from Sheryl in the Gulf.
I admit sometimes I’m not the best sales person and should really just make up something! Why not? Because I really want our clients to think of something special. I know these amazing oil portraits will be with people for a long time….so I really make a point to the client to think of their own unique idea…Suddenly the phone rang - I could not believe who was on the other end…AND… IT WAS NOT SHERYL!!..

A wedding anniversary is an occasion which gives us the scape to be as romantic as we wish. Unlike birthdays or Christmas, it is a celebration of equal significance for both people. The commemoration of the day that began your life together is sadly often forgotten. However, it is worth remembering that anniversary gifts are a unique and intimate recommitment to your status as man and wife…
We take your photo (as seen here)
and hand paint it into an oil painting on canvas!

When your wedding anniversary has passed the Coral or 35th year it becomes property of the whole family. It can be held up as a wonderful example of how a marriage can last. Much ado can be made about wedding anniversaries and the longer they have lasted the grander the rewards should be, in terms of celebration and gifts.
(Have a look at some great results here - We’ll go to the main site)
The 50th or Golden anniversary is a monumental achievement and should be celebrated by all the family.
The original wedding day photo can be hand painted by one of our professional artists. They can recapture the day with a transformation of your old photos onto canvas. Now, since gold is the symbol it should be included in the gift! This can be easily achieved by framing your portrait in a beautiful golden frame - ornate or modern.

If you are looking for a unique first wedding anniversary gift idea or 50th wedding anniversary present then we have a suggestion. Over the past year we received more commissions from people who wanted their favourite wedding photo or image painted into a wedding portrait. The request usually came from the husband or wife; and also from the children (gift for mum and dad). See our latest examples…
The process is simple; simply send us a photograph of the image you would like painted and we will reply with a quote and suggestions. For example, some photos are looking old and faded. The artists will paint the portrait with brilliant colour and contrast…so the painting will generate a powerful energy which radiates from the portrait. Sometimes the background is plain or just plain wrong! We send the photo to our graphics department and they will suggest a background. The team will adjust the photo and digitally insert an appropriate background for you to see. We will send the image to you via email for your inspection. When you are 100% happy with the image we will instruct our professional portrait artists to start the commission. continue reading »
