# How to Place a Portrait Order on Bareface

> A step-by-step guide to commissioning a hand-drawn portrait on Bareface — from choosing your style to receiving your high-resolution files.

Ordering a custom portrait from Bareface is straightforward. You browse the available illustration styles, choose the package that fits your needs, and submit your reference photograph — then your artist takes it from there. The steps below walk you through the complete ordering process so you know exactly what to expect before, during, and after checkout.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Browse Portrait Styles at bareface.io/shop">
    Visit [bareface.io/shop](https://www.bareface.io/shop) to explore the full catalogue of illustration styles. Each style page includes sample portraits and pricing, so you can compare the look and feel of each option before committing. Current styles range from the bold graphic lines of **Pop Fiction** (from $200) to the richly detailed realism of **Chronicle** (from $500), with options like **Pencil Perfect**, **Refined Line**, **Portrait Plus**, and the editorial-inspired **Journal** in between.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select Your Portrait Style and Package">
    Once you've chosen a style, select the package that matches your order size:

    * **Single** — One portrait, ideal for individuals commissioning a personal portrait.
    * **Trio** — Three portraits at a bundled price, suited to small teams or individuals who want multiple variations.
    * **Studio Collection** — Larger volume options designed for teams and organizations that need consistent visual identity across multiple people.

    Each package page displays delivery estimates and everything that's included. If you're ordering for a team of 10 or more, Bareface offers volume pricing and dedicated coordination support — contact the studio before placing your order to arrange this.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add Optional Source Files">
    Before checkout, you can add the **PSD source file add-on** to your order. This delivers your completed portrait as a layered Photoshop document alongside your standard high-resolution PNG and JPEG files. The source file is particularly useful if you work with designers or agencies who need to integrate your portrait into broader brand systems or make future modifications.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Upload Your Reference Photo at Checkout or After Purchase">
    At checkout, you'll have the option to upload your reference photograph directly. If you'd prefer to submit it separately, a secure upload link will be sent to you after your purchase is complete — you can use that link to submit your photo from any device, or via Dropbox or Google Drive. See [Submitting Your Photo](/getting-started/submitting-your-photo) for full guidance on what makes a strong reference image.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Receive Your Order Confirmation and Await Delivery">
    After checkout, you'll receive an order confirmation. Your reference photograph is then reviewed by the studio, and your commission is assigned to an artist whose expertise aligns with your chosen style. Most individual portraits are completed within **7–10 business days**. Once your portrait is ready, you'll receive a link to review and approve it, with two rounds of refinements included before final download.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Orders cannot be cancelled after 24 business hours once production has begun. If you need to make changes to your order, contact the studio as soon as possible after placing it.
