A photo makes an invitation instantly personal: the birthday girl, the new baby bump, the couple, the graduate. With the VoltBy invitation maker you can add your photo in the "Look & feel" step and see it on a finished invitation in seconds.
How to make a photo invitation
- Open the invitation maker and pick your occasion.
- Add the name, date, time and place.
- In Look & feel, upload your photo and choose a theme.
- Generate your free preview. Try a different photo or theme if you like.
- Unlock and download your PNG and PDF.
How to choose the perfect photo
- Bright and sharp: daylight photos look best. Avoid dark, blurry shots.
- Simple background: the face should stand out.
- Vertical photos usually fit invitations better than wide ones.
- High resolution: use the original from your phone, not a screenshot.
Best occasions for a photo invitation
- Milestone birthdays (then-and-now photos)
- First birthdays
- Graduations
- Baby showers and gender reveals
- Anniversaries and vow renewals
- Celebrations of life
