Today's post is dedicated to my awesome partner B who turned 24 today, as well as the lovely Lauren from Tasteslikelove who created the amazing custom portrait below as a last minute birthday gift for me to give to B. :)
I honestly couldn't be more pleased with both the quality and timeliness of Lauren's work. I contacted Lauren late last week to see if she would be able to do a customised illustration of B and myself (without breaking my pathetic budget) and she was more than happy to do so. :)
Lauren not only sent me the portrait above in the sizes I had requested for printing purposes, but she also sent me the same illustration with a blank background so that I could play around with background image for myself (see my new facebook cover photo below).
All I had to do was send Lauren a few photos and details about us (see below), then after a quick revision of her initial draft where we discussed skin tones etc, Lauren had the final copies completed, resized and emailed straight out to me.

The "hair colour". |
Needless to say, B was totally pleased (and surprised!) when I gave him this framed custom portrait this morning. Lauren's custom illustrations are thoughtful, detailed and truly one of a kind.. the perfect gift for any occasion! I would recommend Lauren's services to anyone. :)

What a sweet gift. And happy birthday to your man!
