I am trying to have a ceramic fairy made with maybe the face or clothing of a relative I have in a picture.

You should first try to see if there are local artisans in your area that do this kind of work. Maybe try a craft fair or two, or post a notice on your local craft stores bulletin boards.
You may also want to try http://www.etsy.com/ They have a ton of artisans that deal with every kind of handicraft and many do custom work. It would be worth contacting a few to see if they could do what you're looking for.

In addition to Silver_Star's answer above, I would also recommend going to your local community colleges' art department and talk with the art department's teachers and advisors to find if they have a sculpting student willing to take on the job. Of course, wer'e not looking at something that a professional is making, but your budget may appreciate these efforts. And it would add some variety to that budding sculptor's portfolio.
Thanks for letting me share,

google for polymer clay artists, There are a lot more of them, and they will be able to create a fairy without having to build a mold first.
