Buikify comes from the word
bou·tique
boo-tēk
Boutique comes from a French word of the same spelling, which means any small shop. The word has its roots in the Greek word apotheke, meaning "a warehouse." The same root word also gave rise to the English word apothecary. The word boutique often has an air of exclusivity.

Your Questions Answered

Get face to face with your pet. Avoid blurry and far away photos.
GOOD LIGHTING: Good lighting will help to see the details, capture dimension and accurate color. Avoid blown out or very dark photos.
LOOKING STRAIGHT ON OR 3/4 AT THE CAMERA: The pet’s face is the focal point. Avoid photos where the pet is looking sideways or down.
Home Photos should be well lit and without obstructions.
Once you place your order, please email photos of your pet send several or home
