Bring your favorite photo to life with a cinematic twist. Midnight Oilsis our signature art style that transforms your everyday snapshots into moody, romantic oil paintings glowing with night-time magic. Think wet city streets, string lights in the rain, and passionate moments under the stars.
Whether it’s a wedding kiss, a quiet embrace, or a stolen glance, we turn it into a vivid, atmospheric masterpiece. All we need is a clear photo — we'll handle the rest using cutting-edge enhancement and painterly detailing, printed on museum-grade canvas or fine art paper.
📸 How to Submit the Perfect Photo for Your Midnight Oil Portrait
To help us create a stunning Midnight Oil portrait, please follow these simple guidelines when selecting your photo:
✅ What Works Best:
Clear, well-lit faces – Subjects should be visible and in focus. This helps us bring out their unique features with accuracy.
Facing the camera – Most portraits work best when the subjects are looking toward the camera. It creates a more engaging, cinematic result. (for kisses and embraces side view is fine!)
Include full or most of the body – While headshots are possible, Midnight Oil works beautifully when we can show more of the subject (e.g., head to hips or full-body).
High resolution – Blurry or pixelated images limit the final quality. Send us the original if possible.
💞 Exceptions That Still Look Amazing:
Candid moments of affection – Photos of kisses, embraces, or joyful movement (like dancing or walking together) can be magical, even if not facing the camera. These are perfect as-is and will be reimagined in a richly atmospheric setting.
❌ Try to Avoid:
Group photos with too many people
Photos with heavy filters, motion blur, or poor lighting
Subjects that are too far from the camera
If you’re unsure whether a photo will work, feel free to send us a few options—we’re happy to help you choose the best one for your artwork.
