your photo goes here.

Your own or your family's photos only. We can't mend photos with nudity, including babies in the bath.

Three things make all the difference

  • Flat on a table. A print lying flat stays square, so nothing gets stretched.
  • Away from the window. Tilt it slightly away from the light, so there's no shine across a face.
  • Fill the frame. Get close enough that the print fills your screen. We'll find the edges.

We look for glare, blur and small pictures before anything is sent, and you can take it again.
