The 6th anniversary: iron and sugar

The sixth anniversary is iron, for strength, or sugar, for the sweetness that remains. Few gifts manage both. Words can: a portrait composed from a letter about what you've weathered and what still makes you laugh.

Write a letter with two halves. The first about something hard you came through together; the second about the small sweet things that still happen every week. The contrast is what makes a sixth-anniversary portrait feel true.

How it works

  1. Choose a photograph. The two of you, at the wedding or any time since.
  2. Add the words. Vows, a letter for the 6th year, or a list of things worth remembering.
  3. See it first. It composes in seconds, privately on your device.
  4. Choose an edition. The Digital Edition ($24) or the Master Edition ($39, recommended), both delivered the moment you purchase. A framed edition is coming soon.

Questions

How do I tie a portrait to an iron gift?

Some couples frame the print in a black metal frame, which reads clearly as iron. Others simply give it with a card explaining the strength and sweetness idea.

Can I include both our handwriting?

Lettera composes from typed text, so you can each write a section and combine them before you compose the portrait.

Is my photograph uploaded?

No. The portrait is composed on your own device; the photograph is never uploaded.
