My in-laws watching their anniversary film on an iPad at the dinner table

She remembered the first time she saw him. She was sixteen.

For my in-laws’ 50th anniversary, I made them a short film from their own photographs.

Give them that moment.

After the dinner

“Thank you for the best gift that you’ve given. I’m really moved deeply. I’ve reignited the love of my life seeing this movie. I remembered the moment when I was 16 and I saw him for the first time. For a brief moment. Thank you so much.”

His was shorter.

“Amigo, thanks again so much for the nice movie from us old people. Big hug.”

She keeps going back to those moments, and to him.

An example film

We made this one ourselves, from four holiday slides from 1970.

  • A busy Italian street, cars and shoppers of the period
  • The Rialto, the canal and the bridge
  • The crowd crossing Piazza San Marco
  • Feeding the pigeons in Piazza San Marco
Example

An example, not a customer’s film. The slides come from the Annie Spratt archive on Unsplash.

Before you begin

Plain answers

What does it cost?

From €99, paid once. The price follows how many photographs you add: up to 25 for €99, up to 80 for €149 and up to 120 for €219. Spoken narration needs at least the €149 plan. No subscription.

How soon is it ready?

Most films are ready in an hour or two. We email you when it’s done, with a private link and an HD file that plays on a phone, a tablet or the TV. The link stays open for 90 days, so download the file to keep it. Not quite right? Reply to that email and we’ll help.

How long is the film?

It follows your photographs: each one gets a few seconds, after a title card. The example on this page runs about half a minute.

Which photographs work?

Three are enough to begin. Old prints, scans and phone photos all work. Faces and moments matter more than perfect quality.

What happens to my photos?

Your photos are uploaded over HTTPS and stored in secure cloud storage while we make your film. They are deleted automatically after 90 days. We do not sell your images, use them for advertising, or hand them to outside companies to train their models.
