A sweet gift from my children. I recently lost my precious husband after 52 years together and miss him so much. This pic was our 25th anniversary. It came out so nice that I’m very soon going to have you do our 50th. I have it right where I can see his smile every morning when I wake up. Thank you!
Store owner replied:

I absolutely loved it!! It made me feel so many memories
This picture is beautiful I got it for me and my husbands 1 year anniversary and he absolutely loved it as well as all our friends and family. I would definitely order from here again :)
It’s better than perfect. There was a glare from the sun on the actually photo that I wanted removed. Their staff was diligent in their efforts to ensure exactly what I wanted done to improve the photo. I love the picture and the service was above and beyond my expectations
I absolutely love it. My grandmother was my best friend and this brought tears to my eyes to see such a beautiful memory of us painted for me to see everyday.
Great company. Was fast and easy to upload a photo to the time it arrived at my door, like the extra cost to get it in front of the queue when you desperately need it in a flash.
Incredible! I decided to surprise my wife with an anniversary gift but had trouble deciding what to get. I decided on sometime of art work. I stumbled onto this Company who created these incredible pieces of work. He initial response was everything I’d hope it would be. She was blown away. Thank you so much for recapturing and recreating one of our wedding photos. I can’t wait to order again.
In spite of experiencing a delay due to the heavy weather conditions, I was happy with my overall buying experience. I would like them to improve their real-time updates, like when the parcel was handed over to NZ post from AUS post. The portrait itself is just magical; just how we imagined capturing our big moment. Would definitely recommend it to friends and family. Thanks guys and cheers!
I am beyond thrilled to have this beautifully crafted memory of the love I shared with my sweetheart for 52 years. This is my second purchase and I am delighted to recommend this company for preservation of your special memories .
The picture was a perfect gift for my mom and her new husband! The process was easy and I received everything on time and in good condition! This is my second time using them, highly, highly recommend!!
Very pleased with their work. The review that they send you to edit is very accurate to final product. Definitely worth the price and shipping doesn’t take to long maybe a little over a week
absolutely amazed at the result, especially because this photo was decades old, not digital, so wasn't sure what to expect, but moved me to tears and when I give this to my parents for Christmas, I hope they feel the same way.. super fast turn around, thank you so much!!
I am delighted with my photograph. The artwork is beautifully done and the lettering is perfect for the sentiment. This is part of my memory of my beloved husband who passed away and will be forever treasured.
Customer service representatives were patient during my multiple requests for edits, and price and shipping were reasonable. I would definitely recommend this company for your keepsake photos.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this print...my only regret is that I didn't order it BIGGER!!! This was a gift to my husband for our 1st wedding anniversary (we are doing the traditional gifts and 1st anniversary is paper). We both are in love with how it turned out!!!
So blown away with the portrait, exceeded my expectations of what a computer generated portrait would look like.
Excellent service. ! Highly recommend.
This is beautiful ! I gave it as a first wedding anniversary gift which traditionally is “paper”. The team was very professional and patient in applying my many edits such as removing the background and fixing the veil and hair. The couple loved it! Thank you so much! Great company!!!
The couple got married in July, out of state. They posted pics on FB. I copied one of their pics and had you "paint" it. I gave them the finished pic at their in-town "reception" today. This is a photo of his mom admiring the "painting".
I purchased two - this one from our wedding and another of the house my parents had raised me and my brothers in, which was recently sold after 40 years. It brought tears to my mom’s eyes and she loves it! Quick turnaround and they were great with editing to my preferences. Will order again!
Purchased a print for my daughter’s engagement and loved it so much I had one made with a wedding picture for them. Welham does a fantastic job with a quick turn around. It’s framed and packaged perfectly. Customer service is top notch as well. It makes for a treasured gift. I plan to have prints made for myself now. Highly recommend!!
Purchased this print for a wedding gift for my daughter. It arrived packaged perfectly, and the print was beautiful!! It arrived in less than a week. I highly recommend Welham and Co. and I can’t wait to see my daughter’s reaction when she opens it!
Absolutely love how this turned out. I originally submitted a photo that did not meet the guidelines and working with customer service was fantastic. I will absolutely return for more pictures in the future!

I was so happy with my first picture of our Grands and Great-grands that I ordered another one with our grown kids. Getting everyone together at they same time is such a hassle. You listened to what I wanted and I absolutely love the pictures. I will order again! Thank you!
