Your photo,
framed
You upload a photo, choose a size and pick a frame. We print it, mount it in a frame made exactly to measure and add the glass. Your framed photo arrives in 7–10 days.
How a picture from your own photo is made
1. Upload your photo
One shot from your phone or camera is enough. We work out straight away how large it can go and stay sharp, and which size is worth printing.
2. Choose the size
Set the size with a slider. The aspect ratio always matches your photo, so nothing is cropped.
3. Pick your frame and extras
You pick one of 333 frames and see in the preview how the picture will look on your wall, with a mat or without.
4. We make it and ship it
We print your photo. Frame, mat and glass are all made to measure. We assemble it and deliver in 7–10 days. All that is left for you is to hang it.
Measure your print quality
What DPI means
A photo is made of pixels, and no more of them will appear. The bigger the picture we make from it, the further those pixels spread apart — and the less sharp the print will be. DPI is the number that says how many printed dots fit into one inch. The higher the DPI, the sharper and better the photo looks. The same photo can be superb at A4 and blurry at a metre wide.
When a print is sharp
- Recommended standard300 DPI and above
- Acceptable quality200–299 DPI
- At the limit150–199 DPI
- Low resolution80–149 DPI
The general printing standard is 300 DPI. But you don't stand twenty centimetres from a picture on the wall the way you do with a book. At viewing distance, somewhat lower values hold up fine.
Below 80 DPI we won't make the picture. The difference would be obvious at a glance.
Drag the size and see how big a picture your photo still prints sharply.
Recommended standard
Plenty of resolution — sharp even up close.
We can print your photo sharply up to 50.7 × 38 cm.
How we differ from the competition
Unlike ordinary photo frames, ours come in a wide range of made-to-measure profiles and any size you like, down to the millimetre.

What paper do we print on?
Matt coated paper 160 g
Digital sheet printing. Matt surface, no sheen.
Photo paper 210 g
Roll printing. Richer colour and deeper blacks.
Why the picture sits under glass
We don't glue the print to anything. It's a loose sheet of paper held flat between the glass in front and the backing board behind. Without glass the paper would ripple over time.
That has a second benefit: the print can be taken out and replaced at any time. A glued print can never be removed from its frame.
Glass also protects against dust, humidity and UV. Reflections are solved by choosing the right glass, not by leaving it out. The backing board comes with the glass at no extra cost.
