A tribute to their life
Their story so far, from the first baby photograph to last summer — told in order, decade by decade, set to music.
Birthday Tribute Films
A whole life, in the time it takes to have a drink.
An 18th or a 100th, and everything between. A tribute to their life, messages from the family, or both — priced by how long the film runs, from £75, delivered in HD and ready for any screen.

Three ways to tell it
Their life, their people, or both.
Every package can be made any of these ways. Choose by how long you want the film to run — as a guide, a minute holds about twelve photographs or two or three video messages.
Messages from family
Friends and family each record a few words or send a line. We gather them into one film, so everyone gets to say it on the day.
A mix of both
The life story, with messages from the people in it woven between the chapters. The one that usually gets the tears.

Before you order
Four things to round up.
None of it has to be tidy. Send duplicates, blurry ones, the whole camera roll — we sort, order and choose. The only thing worth doing properly is asking the family early, because that is the part that takes a fortnight.
The photographs
Lofts, albums, phones. Scan what is on paper — a phone camera in good light is plenty — and send the lot.
The messages
Ask the family for a line each. We set them into the film as titles, or send them as short video messages on any package.
The music
The song that was playing when they met, or the one they will not stop singing. Licensed library music included free.
The secret
Your order link is private and nothing is ever sent to them. Collect it all quietly and hand it over on the night.
Good to know
The questions we are always asked.
- The party is in ten days.
- Add rush delivery at checkout — 3–4 working days rather than two weeks. Tell us the party date and we will work to it.
- Half the photographs are prints in an album.
- Photograph them with your phone in daylight, flat on a table, no flash. That is genuinely good enough and we clean them up.
- Can family send things straight to you?
- Yes. Forward them your private upload link and they can add photographs and messages themselves — it is the easiest way to collect from a big family.
- Will they find out?
- Not from us. Nothing is posted publicly and we never contact the person the film is about.
