Favorite Place Portrait Image Guidelines
Thanks to our talented design team, we can work with almost any photo - even the imperfect ones. But if you want to give your portrait the best possible starting point, the tips below will help you choose a photo that brings out the magic of your special place.
Whether it’s the beach where you got engaged, a cozy café from your travels, or a spot that simply holds a special place in your heart - your photo helps us turn that memory into a meaningful portrait you’ll treasure forever.
Helpful Tips for Best Results
- Choose a photo that clearly shows the main view or angle of the place
- Photos taken from a centered or straight-on perspective work best
- Avoid extreme close-ups - try to capture as much of the scene as possible
-
Avoid using filters - they can distort colors or clarity
- Old or low-resolution photos are okay - send them through, and we’ll work our magic!
