Your dog, shades on, halfway through an iced latte
Coffee Sip is the café regular of the collection - the preset strangers recognise before they have read a word on your shirt.

What is in the scene
The scene is a rustic outdoor café table. Your dog sits comfortably behind it in black sunglasses, mouth on the straw of a tall iced latte, with a corner of the wooden table still in frame and the café lights blurred to warm circles behind. The lighting, perspective and depth of field are all matched to one another, so it lands as a photograph somebody took from the next table rather than a pet pasted onto a background.
The photo that gets the best Coffee Sip
Shoot at your dog's eye level rather than down from human height - the straw has to meet a mouth, and a top-down photo gives it nowhere to sit. Daylight near a window is plenty. Do not put real sunglasses on your dog for the photo: the preset adds its own, and anything covering the eyes in your upload takes information away from the part of the face that has to stay recognisably theirs.
The full list is on the photo guidelines page - good light, face visible, one pet, and nothing covering the eyes.
How it prints
Warm browns, cream foam and café amber are what this artwork is made of, and they glow against dark fabric - black and pepper are the two that make the latte look lit. On a pale garment like ivory the same picture reads as a bright weekend morning instead. Either way it prints at the same 12-inch chest placement, and the mockups on this page use the real print box.
16 garment colours are switchable in the preview, so you can see this artwork on any of them before you decide.

Coffee Sip questions
Will the sunglasses hide my dog's face?＋
They cover the eyes, the same way real sunglasses would. Everything that makes your dog identifiable to the people who know them - muzzle shape, coat, markings, ear set - is still drawn from your photo.
My dog would never sit at a café table. Does that matter?＋
Not at all. You are not photographing the scene, you are uploading one clear head-on photo; the café, the table and the latte are drawn around it.
Can I use this preset for a cat?＋
Yes. Coffee Sip works with any pet whose face is clearly visible in the photo. One pet per portrait for now - a second pet means a second design.
