A Few Wrinkly Possibilities
Same Person. More Character. Considerably More Mischief.
Every portrait starts with a real photo and ends with a gloriously exaggerated, affectionate version that still feels unmistakably like them.
The Newly Retired
For someone who has finally escaped work and intends to make a career out of lunch.
The Double Trouble
A funny shared portrait for anniversaries, weddings, or two people who have survived each other.
The Family Character
For the one relative everyone talks about, usually just after they have left the room.
Every portrait is made from your supplied photo.
The finished style can be colourful, classy, cheeky, glamorous, eccentric or quietly ridiculous, depending on the person.

How It Works
Four Simple Steps to a Proper Wrinkly Portrait.
No forms from hell. No technical wizardry. Just a good photo, a little personality, and someone you love who deserves to become a legend.
01
Choose Your Portrait
Pick the style that suits the occasion, whether it is a birthday laugh, retirement gift, couple portrait or family keepsake.
02
Send Your Photo
Upload or email a clear favourite photo of the person you want transformed. The better the photo, the more personality we can bring out.
03
Tell Us Their Character
Add a few details about their hobbies, favourite colours, funny habits, treasured sayings or general level of mischief.
04
Receive Your Portrait
We create the finished image and send it back as a high-quality digital file, ready to share, print or unleash on the family WhatsApp group.
Best results come from clear photos.
A bright front-facing photo works brilliantly, especially one where the person is smiling,
laughing or already causing mild trouble.
Perfect For
Made for the People Who Make Life More Interesting.
A Wrinkly Portrait is not another forgettable present shoved in a drawer. It is a funny, personal keepsake created for people worth celebrating.
Birthdays
For the person insisting that age is only a number, usually while refusing to reveal it.
Retirements
A proper send-off for someone finally escaping meetings, deadlines and people called Gary.
Anniversaries
For couples who have survived decades together and still somehow find each other funny.
Christmas
Far more memorable than novelty socks, bath foam or another emergency box of chocolates.
Family Gifts
For the relative everyone loves, laughs with, and quietly blames for the family sense of humour.
Photo Guide
A Good Photo Gives Us More to Work With.
You do not need a professional studio portrait. A clear, well-lit photo with a face we can see properly is more than enough.
What Works Brilliantly
- A clear photo where the person is facing the camera.
- Good natural light or a bright indoor photo.
- A smiling, laughing or expressive face works especially well.
- A recent photo is ideal, but older favourites can still work beautifully.
- Photos that show a little personality are always welcome.
Best to Avoid
- Very dark, blurry or heavily filtered photos.
- Faces hidden behind sunglasses, hats, hands or someone else.
- Tiny faces in a large group photo.
- Photos taken from far away where facial details are unclear.
- Screenshots or images that have been repeatedly compressed.
Not sure whether your photo will work?
Send it anyway. We will always let you know if we need a clearer image before we begin, because guessing someone’s face from six blurry pixels is not a service anyone should be charging for.
Questions, Answered
The Sensible Stuff Before We Get Started.
Everything you need to know before sending us a photo and unleashing a new family legend.
Will the finished portrait still look like the person?
Yes. The point is to keep their core likeness recognisable while adding more character, expressive wrinkles, bold styling and a bit of affectionate exaggeration. This is not a random face in a silly hat pretending to be your dad.
What kind of photo should I send?
A clear, well-lit photo where we can see the person’s face properly is ideal. Front-facing photos work best, especially if they are smiling, laughing or generally looking like themselves.
Can you create a portrait from an older photo?
Usually, yes. Older photos can work beautifully as long as the face is reasonably clear. If the image is too dark, blurry or tiny, we will let you know before any work begins.
Can I request a certain outfit, hobby or personality style?
Yes. You can tell us about favourite colours, hobbies, clothing styles, funny habits, sayings, pets, holidays or anything else that helps make the portrait feel more personal.
Can you create portraits for couples or families?
Yes. Couple and family versions are available too. These need a little more planning and may have different pricing, because more faces means more glorious chaos to get right.
How will I receive my finished portrait?
Your final portrait is sent digitally as a high-quality image file, ready to save, share, print at home or send directly into the family WhatsApp group before anyone has had a chance to prepare themselves.
Can I make changes after I receive it?
One round of simple edits is included. This covers small reasonable adjustments, such as changing an accessory, colour or minor detail. A full redesign is a separate job, because even art needs boundaries.
Still not sure?
Pick your best photo and send it over when you order. We will check that it is suitable before creating the final portrait.
