Questions, answered.

What is Typortrait?

Typortrait turns a photo into a portrait made entirely of words. You upload a photo and the words that matter — a name, traits, a date, even a whole letter — and Typortrait composes a likeness out of that text.

How does it work?

Upload a clear head-and-shoulders photo, type your words or paste a message, choose a style and colour, and Typortrait composes your word-portrait in seconds. Then pay once to download it.

Do I need Photoshop or design skills?

No. Typortrait does all the art for you — upload a photo, type your words, and it composes the portrait automatically. There’s no software to install, nothing to edit and nothing to learn.

What kind of photo works best?

A clear, well-lit, front-facing head-and-shoulders photo of one person on a simple background gives the best likeness.

Can I use someone’s name or my own message?

Yes. Use a name, the traits you love, a date, or song lyrics — or paste a whole letter. In Message style your passage is laid out as readable lines that form the face.

What styles and colours are available?

Two styles — Words and Message — plus colours including navy, sepia, burgundy, forest, gold-on-black and full photo colour, on a light or dark background.

Can I print it?

Yes. You get a high-resolution image, ideal for printing, framing and gifting — or order a framed print, canvas, poster or tee shipped to your door.

Is Typortrait good for gifts?

Yes — it’s made for anniversaries, weddings, memorials, birthdays, Mother’s and Father’s Day, new babies and pet portraits.

How long does it take?

Just seconds — your portrait is composed as soon as you upload.

What happens to my photo?

Your photo is used only to create your portrait.

Turn words into something they’ll never forget.
