Good lighting and clear facial details work best for portraits.
Send up to 3 options if you are not sure which image will work best.

FAQ

Questions before ordering?

What kind of photo should I upload?

Use the clearest original photo you have. Sharp subjects, good lighting, and visible facial details work best. You can send more than one option if you are unsure which photo will work best.

Can I use a photo of my pet?

Yes. Dogs, cats, and other pets work great for custom lightboxes. Clear photos with good lighting and visible details will give the best result.

Can my photo have more than one person?

Yes. Couples, families, friends, and group photos can be used. Photos where each person is clearly visible will work best.

What happens if my photo is not good enough?

If your photo is too small, blurry, dark, or difficult to use, we will contact you and ask for another photo before making your lightbox.

Can you remove or change the background?

Yes. Depending on your photo, we may remove, simplify, darken, or adjust the background to help the main subject stand out and create a better holographic effect.

Will my photo look exactly the same as the original?

Your photo is adapted specifically for the lightbox effect. Some contrast, color, cropping, lighting, or background adjustments may be needed to create the best finished result.

Can I request specific changes to my photo?

Yes. You can include instructions with your order for simple changes such as background removal, cropping, text, or other adjustments. More complex custom artwork may require an additional design fee.

What if I want custom artwork instead of using a photo?

We can create custom artwork based on your idea, photos, or description. Custom design work may require an additional design fee depending on the complexity of the request.

Can I preview the holographic effect with my own photo?

Yes. Use the interactive preview on this page to upload your photo and see an example of how it may look with the light on and off. The preview is a digital simulation, so the finished holographic effect will vary slightly in person.

Does the holographic effect show when the light is off?

Yes. With the light off, the artwork appears black and white with a rainbow-shifting holographic effect. Turn the light on and the backlight shines through to reveal the full-color version.

Will the holographic colors look exactly like the website photos?

No two viewing angles will look exactly the same. The holographic colors shift depending on the viewing angle, room lighting, and surrounding environment. This changing rainbow effect is part of what makes each lightbox unique.

Can I display the lightbox with the light turned off?

Yes. The lightbox is designed to look good both on and off. With the light off, you see the black-and-white holographic artwork. With the light on, the full-color image is revealed.

What size is the lightbox?

The lightbox is 6 inches wide by 8 inches tall and approximately 1 3/16 inches deep. The visible artwork area is 5 inches wide by 7 inches tall.

Does my lightbox come with a power cord?

Yes. Each lightbox includes a power cord and plug so it is ready to use when it arrives.

Does the lightbox need to stay plugged in?

To display the full-color artwork, the lightbox needs to be plugged in. The lightbox uses a wired power connection to illuminate the full-color artwork.

How long does it take to make my lightbox?

We typically ship custom lightboxes within 5 to 7 business days after your order is placed. If we need another photo or additional information from you, production may take a little longer.

Are the lightboxes handmade?

Yes. Each custom lightbox is individually prepared, assembled, and made to order in Hawaii.

Can I change or cancel my order?

Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel your order. Because each lightbox is custom made specifically for you, changes or cancellations may not be possible once production has started.

What is the return policy?

Because custom lightboxes are made specifically from your photo or artwork, we cannot accept returns on custom orders. If your lightbox arrives damaged or there is a problem with your order, please contact us so we can help make it right.

What if my lightbox arrives damaged?

Please contact us as soon as possible and include photos of the damaged lightbox and packaging. We will review the issue and arrange a replacement when appropriate.

Can I upload any photo, logo, or artwork?

You should only upload photos, logos, artwork, or designs that you own or have permission to use. We may decline orders containing copyrighted or trademarked material if you do not have permission to reproduce it.

Do you offer any discounts?
