A photo
This is what I want to keep
Pick one of your favourite pictures. One sentence is enough to begin: why did you choose exactly this photo?
Your pictures become a gift
The best pictures are the ones that mean something to you.
A digital advent calendar with your own photos turns single pictures into 24 personal advent moments. Add a few words, a voice message or a small surprise to your photos – and give the calendar as a link.
€14.90 once per calendar VAT included (US: $14.90 plus sales tax).
Designing and previewing is free. You only pay when you send it.
Personal, not generic
You do not need a perfect photo album.
A blurry snapshot can tell a big story. Maybe it is a trip, a meal together or a completely ordinary moment. What counts is what the picture means to you both. Only choose photos you want to share with the person receiving the calendar.
Three ideas for your 24 doors
The beginning is often close at hand.
Three suggestions to fill with your own moments.

A detail
Do you remember?
An inconspicuous object, a place or a meal can bring back a real shared moment. Explain in your own words what connects you to it.
15
A look ahead
What I am looking forward to
Combine one of your own pictures with a wish for the time to come. Stick to what you really want to say or plan together.

From you. For one person.
How it becomes your gift.
- Start with a template
Choose a design and start with the partner template or an empty calendar.
- Add your own moments
Edit the texts, choose photos, record a message. Review and save all 24 doors before you send the calendar.
- Unlock and send the link
After payment you get your gift link. The recipient opens it in the browser, without an app account.
Select several pictures. Make every moment personal.
With “Several photos” you can select several of your own pictures at once and assign them to doors. Then you read through the texts, adjust them and confirm your selection. It does not have to be 24 photos: letters, your own recordings or a quiz can fill the other doors. The preview shows you the calendar before you send it.

Before you start.
Do I need a photo for every door?
No. You can combine photos with texts, videos, voice messages, vouchers or a quiz. Templates help you begin; you make the pictures and messages your own.
Can I add several photos at once?
Yes. The editor has “Several photos”. You select the pictures and assign each one to a door. Each door can hold one photo. Check the assignment and the text before you confirm it.
Who can see the photos?
You can edit them in your own draft. After unlocking, people with your gift link can open the doors that have been released. So only share the link with the people you mean. The calendar is not a public photo gallery.
How long can the calendar be opened?
Doors unlock daily from 1 to 24 December. Access lasts until 31 January of the following year (UTC). After that, the calendar and its media are deleted, so it is not a permanent photo archive.
How much does it cost to send?
Sending costs €14.90 once per calendar, VAT included; in the US it is $14.90 plus applicable sales tax. There is no subscription. You can design your calendar for free and look at the preview before you decide to buy.
A small joy that comes from you
