• Birthdays and Christmas - a thoughtful gift that beats generic.

How to choose the best photo for a photo gift

The result is only as good as the photo, so pick one that's clear, well-lit, and has good contrast between the subject and the background. Simple photos with one or two main subjects work best - busy or dark photos are harder to turn into a clean gift. For outline designs especially, a sharp photo makes all the difference.
