The 7th anniversary: wool and copper

Seven years is wool, for warmth and comfort, or copper, for something that conducts and lasts. A word portrait made from the warmest things you can say to each other sits comfortably with either.

There's an old idea about a difficult seventh year. Whether or not you believe it, it's a good prompt: write about why you'd choose each other again. Plain, honest reasons make the most moving portraits.

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 7th 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

Is there a copper-coloured option?

Prints are monochrome ink on paper by design. A copper or brass frame is an easy way to bring the colour in.

What if we're not sentimental writers?

Try a list instead of prose: seven things, one for each year. Lists compose beautifully because the rhythm repeats across the image.

Is my photograph uploaded?

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