Photo Tips 

1.     For the best results when personalizing your keyring, choose well-lit photos with natural light to avoid harsh shadows.

2.     Make sure to crop the main subject—whether it’s a face, pet, or special object—so it stands out clearly.

3.     High-contrast images work best, as they ensure that all the details remain sharp and visible after engraving.

4.     Finally, avoid blurry or low-resolution photos, since a crisp, clear image is essential for a professional-looking finished product.
