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 a range of colours: classic black, navy, sepia, burgundy, forest, gold-on-black, vivid spectrum and aurora gradients, or full photo colour — on a light or dark background.
How much does it cost?
Building and previewing your portrait is completely free — you only pay if you love it. The high-resolution digital download is a one-time $14.99, full-resolution with no watermark. Prefer something physical? Prints start at $29 for an archival poster, up to $69 for a framed print, shipped to your door. Your free preview carries a small watermark; your download and prints are always clean.
Can I print it?
Yes. You get a full-resolution, watermark-free PNG — 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, and new babies.
Will I be happy with it?
You see your finished portrait before you pay anything, so there are no surprises — if it’s not quite right, adjust your words, photo, style or colour and preview again for free. You only pay when you love it.
How long does it take?
Just seconds — your portrait is composed as soon as you upload.
What happens to my photo?
Your photo is private. It’s used only to create your portrait — never sold, never shared — and both your photo and the files we generate are automatically deleted after about 30 days. Email us anytime to delete them sooner.
