Personalised Portraits

Custom Caricatures & Illustrated Gifts for Life’s Big Milestones
Looking for a meaningful gift that’s personal, memorable and completely unique?
Our personalised portraits combine the character of a custom caricature from photo with the detail and care of professionally crafted illustration. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone birthday, planning a retirement surprise or marking a family legacy moment, each piece is individually designed to reflect the person, their story and what makes them special.
We’ve been creating personalised caricatures in the UK for over 13 years, working from your photos and ideas to produce artwork that feels thoughtful, not templated or generated.

Lexie’s caricature
We recently ordered a pet caricature of our amazing pooch Lexie, to add to our growing collection of Steph’s sketches! As usual, it did not disappoint… a perfect portrayal, capturing all that is special and unique about our fur baby- we absolutely love our growing gallery of caricatures….thank you Steph… we love it!! And Lexie approved too!!🐶🐶🐶- Dawn. F
Last Minute Gift
Absolutely brilliant! I had a very specific picture I wanted of my family with individual things for each person and a tight time frame. Steph couldn’t have been more helpful making adjustments and getting it done and delivered in time for the birthday.Everyone who has seen the picture loves it.Can’t recommend them enough! - Kieran.K
Perfectly Customised
Great caricature likeness and themed to perfection. So good, I ordered another one. Great communication and order fulfilment. I highly recommend. 10/10 -Judith.W
Absolutely brilliant!
So far I have had two and they are excellent. I plan on having more in the coming year, mainly on the birthdays of some friends. A great gift idea and they are so well done. Packaged really well and delivered exactly when they say they will arrive. I would really recommend using Steph's Sketches - they are a really unique gift for any occasion. Both of those I have had so far have gone down really well. Definitely priced very fairly too. - Maggie Steele
