Best Friends
One flash, not a straight face in sight
Your group of friends redrawn from your photo, in a scene: the preview is the poster that will be printed.

Clean outlines, warm flat colour, faces and hairstyles that stay yours, and the title “Best Friends” written underneath. Preview in thirty seconds, from A4 to 70 × 100 cm.
First the object — medium, size, frame — then its content, which you watch take shape in the preview.

Full description
A photo of your group of friends, redrawn by an artificial intelligence: the whole gang squeezed into a tiny vintage photo booth, red curtain open, flash going off, big grins, one sticking out a tongue and another winking. Clean outlines, flat colour and soft shading in a warm palette, under a title in handwritten lettering — “Best Friends”, which you can change — and a subtitle of your own. Faces, hairstyles and expressions follow the photo, and so do the glasses of anyone who wears them.
It is the gift for a birthday, a move abroad, a hen party, a Christmas with the girls — and the one you give yourselves, together. The same photo works for all five scenes in the series: drinks, the tiny armchair, the bike, the photo booth and the road trip are five separate listings.
You upload a photo of the group where every face is clearly visible, and the illustration appears in about thirty seconds. You see what will be printed before you order: that image, and no other, is the one that goes to print. It is made by an artificial intelligence; in our tests, three to six people were drawn in full and recognisable, but the likeness of an illustration is never that of a photograph, and faces are smaller when the scene shows full bodies (the bike, the road trip). You get three tries per photo; the photo is never published and we delete it thirty days after dispatch — or after purchase, for the printable file.

How it works
- You upload the group photo
A sharp photo where every face is clearly visible, front-on or three-quarter view, well lit. The background of your photo is replaced by the scene.
- The illustration appears in thirty seconds
The group is redrawn in the scene; faces and hairstyles follow the photo. Not quite happy with it? You get three tries per photo.
- You write the title and order
“Best Friends” is already written, with a subtitle: keep them or change them. The image you see is the one that is printed, in our workshop in Aveyron.
- We print in Aveyron
To order, on 250 g matte paper: in our Aveyron workshop, whatever the size, and every poster is checked there before it ships. Or you receive the download link for the file by e-mail.

Frequently asked questions
What does the “best friends” poster show?
A photo of your group of friends redrawn in a scene — drinks on a terrace, an armchair far too small, a single bike, a photo booth or a road trip, depending on the listing — with clean outlines, flat colour and soft shading in a warm palette. Underneath, a title in handwritten lettering (“Best Friends”) and a subtitle, which you keep or change.
Which photo should I choose for a poster of a group of friends?
A sharp, well-lit photo where every face is clearly visible, front-on or three-quarter view. A phone photo is enough — JPG, PNG or WEBP, up to 25 MB. The closer it is taken, the better the likeness: a photo taken from far away gives tiny faces. The background of your photo is replaced by the scene. With three tries per photo, you see the result before you order.
How many people can be on the poster?
In our tests, groups of three, four and six people — all women, or a mix of women and men — were drawn in full and recognisable. Just two people, a group of more than six or children were not tried: the poster is not guaranteed in those cases, which is why you see it before you order.
Is the poster made by an artificial intelligence? Do the faces look like us?
Yes. An artificial intelligence redraws your photo in about thirty seconds: it is not an illustrator’s line. You see the result before you order, and that exact image is the one printed, in our workshop in Aveyron. Faces, hairstyles and expressions follow the photo, but the likeness of an illustration is never that of a photograph; it is less reliable when the scene shows full bodies (the bike, the road trip), where faces are smaller.
What if one of us wears glasses?
They are kept: in our tests, a friend in glasses kept them in the illustration, and nobody was given glasses she didn’t wear. Sunglasses, on the other hand, hide the eyes: choose a photo where everyone’s eyes can be seen.
Can I change the title “Best Friends”?
Yes. The title and subtitle are written under the illustration, not inside it: you can change them at any time without redoing the image — the name of your gang, a nickname, a date. They are limited to 30 and 48 characters, and they tighten to fit on one line.
Can I give all five scenes with the same photo?
Yes: drinks, the tiny armchair, the bike, the photo booth and the road trip are five listings, one per scene. The same photo works for each, but every scene is ordered separately, with its own three tries.
How long does the poster take to arrive?
The workshop prints to order and ships within 48 hours: allow four to five days in France and six to seven to Ireland and the rest of the EU, workshop time included. For a date you must hit, order a week ahead in France and ten days ahead elsewhere.
