How to Order a Memorial Photo
The ordering process is simple and straightforward. A memorial photo can be ordered in two ways — depending on its intended use and the method of mounting.
1. Ordering Through a Stonemason
When arranging the details of the headstone with your stonemason, ask them to order and install the memorial photo of your choice.
Together with the stonemason, agree the details of the order, such as its size, the colour version and the fixing method. Then provide the stonemason with several good-quality photographs of the deceased person, or send them to our email address.
Within 2-3 days we will prepare a portrait design for your approval. Once you have approved it, we produce the memorial photo and send it to the stonemason's address you specify.
If the memorial photo is ordered through a stonemason, the order is placed and settled directly with the stonemason as part of the complete headstone project.
2. Ordering Directly Through the Online Store
You can also order a memorial photo yourself in our online store. Simply choose the appropriate size, upload several photographs and pay for the order.
Within 2–5 working days we will prepare a design for you to review. Once you have approved it, we produce the item and send it directly to you or to the stonemason you specify.
Please note: before ordering a photo in a large format, we recommend agreeing the dimensions, the glass thickness and the fixing method with the stonemason responsible for the installation.

Photo restoration
for headstones and funeral ceremonies
The service is for funeral homes, stonemasons and private individuals who need a photograph improved quickly — in time to have it printed by a local photographer for the ceremony, or prepared for use on a headstone.
We also restore photographs in very poor condition — we remove paper texture, grain and yellowing, bring back sharpness in the face and hair, and crop the frame to the format you choose. We hand over the print-ready file as a link you download to your computer.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to make a memorial photo?
We prepare the memorial portrait design within 2-3 days of receiving a complete set of photographs from the customer. Once the design has been approved, we begin producing the photo on tempered glass straight away, then protect it and prepare it for shipping.
For orders that include physical production and shipping, the total lead time is usually about 3-6 weeks.
How do I order a photo?
We recommend placing the order through a stonemason, or contacting our orders department directly. Our member of staff will help you choose the right product options and will prepare an individual quotation.
What size of photo is suitable for a headstone?
That depends on the type of headstone and the size of the grave plaque. We make every photo to the dimensions agreed with the stonemason.
Please note: we also make photos in sizes other than those given in the product options. To order a non-standard format, please contact us by telephone or send us an email.
Is the photo resistant to weather conditions?
Yes. We make the photo using ceramic printing on tempered glass, which is fired in a kiln at high temperature. We also protect the portrait at the back with a layer of glass and lamination, which adds to its durability. This makes the photo resistant to weather conditions, and the colours keep their depth and remain resistant to UV radiation.
How do I choose photographs of the deceased person for the memorial photo?
Please make sure that the photographs you send are sharp and taken from a short distance. Photographs in which the person is shown from the waist up work best.
We recommend sending several photographs, which lets us choose the most suitable shot. If there are problems with the quality of the photographs, we can retouch or reconstruct them, keeping the portrait natural and dignified.
What is the difference between 8 mm and 20 mm glass?
The thickness follows the way it will be fixed. An 8 mm pane is meant to be bonded onto the stone slab of the headstone. A 20 mm pane is rigid enough to be set into a plinth and stand on its own.When will I see the design before production?
We prepare the design for your approval within 2–5 working days of receiving your photographs. Production starts only once you have approved it and takes 3–6 weeks.How do you pack a photo this large for shipping?
Large formats travel in returnable packaging protected with foam. You will see the delivery cost with the price summary — it changes with the size you choose.Is there a discount for stonemasons?
Yes. We keep separate prices for business partners — once you are signed in to a stonemason account the discount is applied automatically at every size.Do you need a photo for a headstone in a different size?
We make large photos for headstones to the dimensions agreed with the stonemason. The product options list formats from 20 × 30 to 60 × 90 cm in thicknesses of 8 or 20 mm, and we will also prepare the portrait in another size. Before ordering a large format, agree the dimensions, the glass thickness and the fixing method with the stonemason responsible for the installation. Contact us and we will prepare an individual quotation.
We also prepare quotes for non-standard work by e-mail: biuro@deseomemorials.com
