Not a photo book — a book about you

Photo books collect pictures. BoundMoments tells a story: we write an original narrative from your memories — how you met, the trips, the rituals, the inside jokes — and illustrate every chapter in the style you choose. The result is a real book to read aloud, keep and pass on.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly is a BoundMoments book?

An original, written and illustrated story about real people — a couple, a parent, a friend, a mentor. It has 13 chapters with 13 full-page illustrations, 32 pages in total, in a square 20 × 20 cm format, printed as a hardcover or a booklet.

Is it a photo book?

No. We do not lay out your photos. We write a story from what you tell us and illustrate it in one consistent style. Photos are optional and only help the illustrated people resemble the real ones.

Yes. The free preview shows the cover, the synopsis and the first pages. You can change the idea, the style or the details before you order.

How are the story and illustrations created?

With AI, based on the information and photos you provide. Every book is checked page by page for consistency, and you read the finished book before it is printed.

Which languages are available?

More than 35 languages, and bilingual editions with two languages on every page.
