Your photo helps us understand the shape, pose and details you want engraved. Use these examples to choose a clear reference, then tell us what matters most.
Illustrative AI-generated reference photos. These show framing and clarity, not finished engravings or customer work.
01
Cars & vehicles
The angle you send becomes our starting point. Show the vehicle you actually want us to capture.
A good starting photo
Keep the whole vehicle in frame, including bumpers, wheels and mirrors.
Use a clear side or three-quarter view from the angle you want represented.
Add close-ups of your wheels, bodywork or modifications and tell us which details matter.
What to avoid
Cut-off wheels or bumpers, heavy shadows and reflections hiding details.
Wide-angle distortion, screenshots or filters that change the shape.
02
Sports & action
A player, a coach or one unforgettable play. Tell us exactly who and what the design should feature.
A good starting photo
Choose a sharp frame with the player and the important equipment visible.
For a full-body design, include hands, feet and the ball or equipment.
Identify the player, pose, name and number. Add a separate close-up if a detail is hard to see.
What to avoid
Motion blur, tiny distant players or another person blocking the subject.
Missing hands, feet or equipment when you want them in the design.
03
Pets & animals
Their ears, expression and markings make them recognizable. Choose the pose you want to keep.
A good starting photo
Use natural light, sharp eyes and a clear view of the face and distinctive markings.
For a full-body shape, include ear tips, paws and tail. For a portrait, leave room around the head.
Tell us which pet to feature and add a second view for markings that matter.
What to avoid
Dark fur disappearing into shadows, blurry faces or strong color filters.
Blankets, hands or furniture hiding parts of the pet you want included.
04
People, objects & other ideas
A favorite object, a personal memory or your own artwork. Start with a reference that makes the subject easy to understand.
A good starting photo
Keep the subject and its important edges clearly visible.
For people, tell us who to include and whether you want a portrait or full-body design.
For artwork, send the clearest original you have. Describe any text or details you want kept.
What to avoid
Clutter, glare, tiny screenshots or low-resolution copies.
Assuming a detail hidden in the photo can be reproduced exactly.
Before you upload
Start with a sharp, well-lit original. JPEG, PNG or WebP are good starting points. If your phone uses another format, export a copy in one of these formats.
Keep the angle and pose you want. Leave space around the subject and send close-ups as extra references.
Tell us what to keep, remove or emphasize, including exact wording and numbers.
Use photos or artwork you have permission to share. If you do not have a photo yet, describe your idea for review.
Reviewed by us. Approved by you.
We review the photo and the details before quoting a custom shape, photo conversion or original design. Fine features may need simplifying to stay clear as an engraving. Engraving only at launch; color printing is not offered.
No payment is taken with your request. After you accept the quote and pay, we prepare your private proof. You approve the final artwork before production, including both sides when back engraving is selected.
