Reunion photos often pass through many hands. We process every image in the EU, never use it to train AI, and delete it automatically once you're done.

Class photos — common questions

Will faces across a big group come out clearly?
Mostly. Face improvement works on every face big enough to improve without guessing; the smallest faces in a large group are left as they are, on purpose. For big class photos, crop the print into sections in the Studio first.
Can I do several school years at once?
Yes. Drop in a folder or a .zip and we'll process them together, then let you download each one or all of them as a single ZIP.
Is this good for a school anniversary display?
It works well. You download full-resolution, watermark-free images; how large you can print depends on your scan, so scan class photos at 600 dpi or more.
