Why steel

Ink fades. Steel endures.

Most photo gifts are printed onto a surface. Yours is engraved into solid 2mm stainless steel, so the image is part of the metal itself.

No fading

Engraved, not printed. Sunlight cannot bleach it away.

No peeling

No coating or laminate to lift, bubble or split.

No yellowing

Steel does not age the way paper and canvas do.

Built for generations

Laser-engraved, hand-finished, made to be passed on.

For every occasion

Made for the moments that matter.

These are the moments people trust us with most.

Memorial keepsakes

A face you never want to forget, kept close.

Pet memorials

For the companions who left paw prints on your life.

Weddings & anniversaries

The day itself, engraved to last as long as the promise.

New baby & milestones

First days, first steps, moments you will want forever.

  • Very dark, backlit or low-light photos
  • Small images stretched to fit
  • Heavy filters that flatten tones
Recommended minimum resolution by size

Shape & cropping

Our steel is cut to fixed proportions, and most photos won't match exactly. In the studio above you drag and zoom to decide precisely what stays in frame.

Your crop is saved with your order. We hand-check every piece before engraving and email you if anything looks like it might be clipped.

Our story

Why we frame lives.

Frame My Life began as a hobby with a laser engraver. We quickly realised we could make something genuinely special for the people around us: keepsakes that helped family and friends remember lost pets and much-loved relatives.

The name mattered from the very start. This business exists to do exactly what it says, to frame the life of a loved one, a lost pet, a special moment, so it can be kept close.

We wanted a business we were proud to work on and proud to share, so that other people could hold on to their most cherished moments for a lifetime. Every keepsake we make still carries that intention.
