IN MEMORY
A keepsake of the one
you had to say goodbye to.
Choose one photo. We turn it into a soft watercolor or a quiet pencil drawing, and print it on something you can keep — a poster for the shelf, a mug for the morning, a sticker for your planner.
One photo is enough
Old photos and slightly blurry ones usually work. You don't need anything professional.
Their face stays theirs
Only the medium changes. The markings, the coat, the look in their eyes stay exactly as they were.
See it before you decide
The preview is free and you can redo it as many times as you like. If it isn't right, you don't buy it.
What we can make
Something to look at, something to hold, or something to carry. There isn't a right answer — it depends on how you want them near you.
To display
Matte Poster$32
8 × 10 inches on thick matte paper, printed edge to edge. It fits the shelf where their photo already sits. Many people frame it — the frame isn't included, so you can choose one that matches your home.
To use every day
11oz Mug$29
Some people find a framed picture becomes something they only look at on hard days. A mug puts them in your hands every morning instead. Dishwasher and microwave safe.
To carry
Die-Cut Sticker Sheet$14
Cut to the shape of your pet. Inside a planner, on a laptop lid, on the back of your phone — somewhere only you know it's there.
Watercolor or pencil
Watercolor
Soft edges and open space. Fur comes out gentle rather than sharp, which suits bright, happy photos. It sits lightly in a room — it won't make the shelf feel heavy.
Pencil
Quiet, with the color taken out. The eyes hold their expression clearly, so it suits people who want the likeness kept plainly and simply.
You don't have to choose now. Both are generated from the same photo, free, so you can look at them side by side.
Choosing the photo
This is often the hardest part. These tend to turn out best.
- Their face turned toward the camera, with their eyes visible
- Natural light — outdoors, or near a window
- Their face filling a good part of the frame
- A slightly blurry photo is usually still fine, if you can see who they were
If you can't decide between two photos, try both. Nothing is charged until you order.
There's no deadline
Some people make one within the week. Some wait for a birthday, or the anniversary of the day they let them go. Some do it three years later, when they finally feel able to look at the photos again.
Whatever you make is saved to its own page, so you can create it now and order much later. Nothing expires and nothing is charged until you decide.

Questions people ask
Can you work from a photo of a pet who has passed away?
Yes. That is what most people use this page for. Any photo you still have is a place to start.
My only photos are old or a little blurry.
That is usually fine. If their face is recognizable, we can work with it. The preview is free, so you can see the result with your actual photo before deciding anything.
I only have a printed photo, not a digital one.
Photograph the print with your phone in good light. Shooting from a slight angle keeps the glare off the paper. That copy works.
Can I frame it as a memorial portrait?
The poster is 8 × 10 inches, a standard US frame size, so ready-made frames fit. We don't include a frame — most people prefer to choose their own.
When should I make one?
There is no right time. Some people do it on a birthday or the anniversary of the day they said goodbye. Others do it the week it happens, or years later. Your design is saved to its own page, so you can create it now and order whenever you're ready.
Looking at the photos is hard right now.
Then please don't force it. Nothing here expires. Make the preview when you feel able to, close the tab, and come back to it.
Can I order more than one for family?
Yes. Many people order the same piece two or three times so siblings or grandparents each have one.
How long does it take to arrive?
Everything is printed to order at our US production partner and typically arrives in 7–9 days. Shipping is $6.95, free on orders over $60.
