Everyone enjoys receiving a special gift from those they love.  It is hard shopping for people who seem to have everything, but they are sure to love something as personal and unique as a charcoal portrait.  Sondra's Ink creates customized charcoal portraits from your photo, this is the perfect way to express your heartfelt love for anyone.

Many brides and grooms are now using the very popular signature mats rather than a guest book.  The wedding guests sign the mat that surrounds a beautiful charcoal portrait (sometimes it's the engagement picture).  After the wedding there is a beautiful memento to display in your home.  Many brides order a portrait after the wedding so they can have a charcoal portrait of themselves complete with veil and dress.

Portraits are wonderful to keep for yourself too, I have my own children's charcoal portraits displayed on my living room wall. 

Charcoal portraits are wonderful gifts for the parents of brides/grooms.  Gift certificates are a popular baby shower gift, and grandparents love portraits of their special grandchildren. 

Portraits can also work in a corporate environment.  The public library in East Grand Rapids, Michigan has been displaying a different employee's charcoal portrait each month in a very unique display.  Every month an employee picks their favorite book and poses with it, a snapshot is taken and emailed to Sondra's Ink, where a portrait is completed.  The portrait is then featured with the employee's favorite books.  This project is on it's fifth month and has been very successfully received by the library patrons.   Each individual receives his/her portrait to keep.

Photos can be altered as needed.  Subjects can even be from two separate snapshots as long as they are similar poses.  For pricing and more information click here
