To get a good likeness of a person for a portrait, it's best if Terri can have a live sitting with the person where she makes sketches and take photos. She'll then create the portrait back at her studio

If this isn't possible, you can always give her some existing photos to work from. Ideally these should include the person wearing the clothes you want in the picture and with them sitting or standing in the posture for the portrait (especially in terms of how the head is held). You also need to provide another photo that has a close up view of the face in that posture that accurately shows their skin tone, hair and eye colour
When Terri discusses your ideas for the portrait with you, she will also ask you about the background and props that you want included to indicate the person's character and life
