why we started lovingly alive

To give people a piece of their memories back.

Some photos have faded so much that you can barely see the face anymore. Some people we only know from one picture in a drawer – a grandparent we never met, a parent we were too young to remember, someone we wish we could see just once more.

That's why we started Lovingly Alive: to let you see someone you love smile, wave and move again – in exactly the moment you wish for. Every film is made to order and looked at by a person before it reaches you.

– The Lovingly Alive team

Made with care, made for you.

What happens to my photos afterwards?

hecho con cariño

Cada película la revisa una persona. Si algo no se parece a tu ser querido, rehacemos la escena gratis.

Preguntas

Todo lo que necesitas saber antes de enviarnos tu foto. ¿Aún tienes dudas? Escríbenos: te responde una persona de verdad.

¿Qué foto funciona mejor?

Una foto nítida en la que se vea la cara. Las fotos antiguas, descoloridas, rayadas o en blanco y negro están bien: son las que más nos gustan. Sirven tanto los escaneos como las fotos hechas con el móvil a una copia impresa.

¿Son imágenes reales?

No: es una película creada con ayuda de IA a partir de tu foto, dirigida con cuidado y revisada por una persona. Es una interpretación artística de cómo podría haberse visto y movido tu ser querido.

¿Cuánto tarda?

Con pago por PayPal: en 24 horas. Con cualquier otro método de pago: en 48 horas. Recibirás por correo un enlace a tu vídeo en HD (MP4).

¿Puedo elegir mi propia escena?

Sí. Elige una de nuestras historias o selecciona «Mi propia idea de escena» y describe dónde te gustaría verlos y qué deberían hacer.

¿Pueden hacer una película de alguien que ya falleció?

Sí: muchas de nuestras películas se hacen en memoria de alguien querido. Pídela solo si eres familiar o cuentas con el acuerdo de la familia.

¿Y si no me gusta el resultado?

Dinos en 14 días qué no te convence y rehacemos la escena gratis. Como cada película es contenido digital hecho a medida, todas las ventas son definitivas una vez que hemos empezado.

«Fue como volver a verlo.»
