Two prints at a time, held long enough to be looked at, with a note in the border.

Make your own romantic photo slideshow

The same polaroid drop, but warm and slow and for two people — the anniversary version rather than the party one. Say a sentence like the one below and your agent writes you a different one — free, in your browser.

Say this to your agent

>Same, but warm, slow, and for the two of us.

Or ask for a different one

Not settings — each one builds something else.

  • >An anniversary video that ends on the number of years.

  • >The same but with a date under each photo.

  • >A slideshow for a proposal, ending on a question.

What it worked out on its own

  • Slow is a design, not an absence. The gallery is about how many there are; this is about how long you spend on each, and the only difference in the code is the beat.

  • One warm light from the top left and a deep shadow bottom right, so the prints sit on a surface. The same photographs on a neutral ground read as a contact sheet.

  • The caption is set in a handwriting face on the print's own border and tilts with it — a caption in the layout's sans is a label, not a note someone wrote.
