A worthy tribute
as a painted portrait

Short answer

What is a memorial portrait?

A memorial portrait is a painted portrait made from a favorite photo of a loved one who has died. You choose a style, upload the photo and see a free preview within seconds. Families hang it at home, place it at a memorial service or give it to a parent or grandparent who lost their partner.

Made from the photos you have

Most families only have a handful of good photos of someone who passed away, often old prints or a picture from a party. That is enough. Scanned photos from decades ago usually work well, as long as the face is reasonably clear, and the painted style softens the grain and color casts of older prints.

A portrait of one person, or the whole family together

A memorial portrait can show just your loved one, or bring them back into a family picture. Upload up to four photos and everyone is painted together in one portrait, for example a grandfather with the grandchild he never met.

Choosing a style

Impressionist gives soft brushstrokes and warm colors that many families find comforting. Renaissance creates a classic, dignified portrait. Modern stays closest to the original photo. Because the preview is free, you can try more than one.
