What makes a great photo
- A close-up where the face fills most of the frame.
- Natural daylight, with no harsh flash or heavy shadows.
- Taken at eye level, looking towards the camera.
- Sharp and in focus. A good phone photo is plenty.
Not sure your photo will work? Send it anyway. We'll flag anything at the free proof stage, before we print.

Framing & sizing
Why we sell our prints unframed
Most of our prints ship unframed, so you can choose a frame you love rather than pay for one you'd swap out.
- Pick your own look. Match the frame to your room, oak, black or white wood, or a mounted gallery style.
- Don't pay twice. A frame you didn't choose often gets replaced. Unframed keeps the cost on the artwork.
- Ships flat and safe. A flat-packed print travels far better than glass.
Prefer it ready to hang? Add a fitted black, white or natural wood frame at the size step above.
Choosing a frame that fits
Our prints come in three standard sizes, so an off-the-shelf frame is easy to find:
- 21 × 29.7 cm (A4) — fits any standard A4 frame.
- 30 × 40 cm — a common ready-made frame size.
- 45 × 60 cm — a popular large size, also widely sold ready-made.
Two easy ways to frame it:
- Frame to size. Buy a frame in the exact size above, no mount needed.
- Use a mount (mat). Choose a slightly larger frame with a mount cut to your print size, for a gallery look with a border.
Tip: check the frame's artwork opening (not its outer size), and look for a real glass or acrylic front.
How it'll look on your wall
Here's how the three sizes compare against a standard three-seat sofa (about 2 m wide) and an adult, for scale:
Above a sofa or sideboard, most people choose 30 × 40 or 45 × 60 cm. For a shelf or a gallery wall of several prints, A4 works well.
About this print
Some milestones get a card. The ones where someone actually earned something, a decade of hard work, a qualification that took years, a retirement they never thought would come, deserve something worth hanging.
Upload a favourite photo and our artists reimagine it as a watercolour portrait, digitally painted to draw out the warmth and feeling in the image. It is an artist-reimagined digital watercolour, not a physical original, and that honesty is exactly why the free digital proof matters. You see it before anything prints, and nothing goes to production until you are happy with it.
- Three sizes: 21×29.7cm, 30×40cm and 45×60cm
- Optional wood frame in Black, White or Natural (+£30)
- Delivered in days, in time for the occasion
The kind of gift that stops feeling like a gift after a week on the wall, and just becomes part of the room.
Frequently asked questions
What kind of photo works best for a milestone print?
A clear, well-lit photo with the person's face visible gives the best result. It doesn't need to be a professional shot, a favourite candid often works beautifully. Our artists will do the rest.
How does the free digital proof work?
Once you've placed your order and uploaded your photo, we'll send you a digital preview of the watercolour before anything prints. If something needs adjusting, just let us know. Nothing goes to production until you're satisfied.
Can I order a framed version as a gift?
Yes, you can add a wood frame in Black, White or Natural for an extra £30. The print arrives ready to hang, which makes it a complete, thoughtful gift with no extra effort from the recipient.
How quickly will it arrive?
We print close to the delivery address via Gelato's network, so most orders arrive within a few days of proof approval. If the milestone is coming up soon, place your order early to leave time for the proof stage.
What if I don't like the proof?
Then we change it. The proof stage is there so you can ask for tweaks to the colours, the background or the likeness, and we'll keep revising until you're happy. Nothing goes to print until you approve it.
Can I return it if I change my mind?
Because every print is made to order from your photo, we can't accept returns for a change of mind. You approve a free digital proof before we print anything, so there are no surprises. And if a print arrives damaged or not as approved, we'll put it right straight away.
