This is sometimes a difficult one to answer. Each product type has a different turnaround time and it boils down to how many changes you request and what our current workload situation is. We have included an average timeframe for every product so you can see what type of process we have for each of our portrait types. You can find this in the "more details" section on every product.

If we are overloaded with work and it's expected to exceed those timeframes mentioned you will be notified in a pop up when adding items to the cart. This way you can judge if your happy to wait before making any purchases, in these situations where the workload is at it's highest it's a matter of “First in, first served” a popular phrase used by Australians basically meaning you will be placed in a queue till earlier orders are completed.
