How Was This Unique Idea Born?



This company was the fruit of an ardent yearning for a special gift for a special someone. Our founder Sunny Choudhary was in his final year of engineering when he had his eureka moment.

One of his friends wanted to gift a handmade painting to his significant other but couldn’t find a steady and honest service online.

Despite the abundance of artists across the globe, he couldn't find a single company that would make a handmade portrait from a photo.

There were some companies that provided this service and the ones that did, cost almost an arm and leg to get that painting delivered.

He felt that there was a gap that was required to be filled and took this opportunity to build PortraitFlip.

That’s how PortraitFlip was born to bridge the gap between the heroes of the art universe and the world that hardly knew about their brilliance.
