We take the image you’ve sent us and run it through an editing program. Laser engraving a photo is different than printing it, so we have to make some changes to get the best possible image.

Laser Engraving
We let the laser do the rest, your photograph is actually being burned into the surface of the wood, you’ll actually see a slight texture to the surface because darker areas are burned more deeply than lighter ones.
When laser engraving a photograph onto wood it’s important to use light colored wood, the lightest areas on the photo will be the color of the wood itself. If we were to use a darker colored wood the photograph would be difficult to see. For this reason we engrave on live edge maple, live edge basswood, and maple plywood, all light colored surfaces. When working with live edge lumber all measurements are approximate, the wood is the size and shape of the tree trunk it was cut from, however plywood measurements are exact. Several sizes are listed for sale here but we can certainly try to accommodate your requests, and extra large sizes are always available in plywood and sometimes in live edge maple. Since this is a custom item, though it will be posted in our store, please message us before ordering to get the ball rolling.
