Had a wonderful experience with Memento Press! After hearing a family member rave about the service, product quality, and the reasonable pricing at Momento, (they have purchased many prints from Josh over the years) we decided to look into a large metal piece for our home.Josh patiently and expertly chatted with us about the photo landscape options we provided him from our travels, and he created several renditions that would work well in our space (taking into account the warmth in the photo, lighting in our home, etc.) leading up to the finished product of a stunning large (2.5ft. x 5ft.) metal print.We were impressed with the quick shipping and the care that went into packing our print in a sturdy shipping crate, and are thrilled with the clarity and qualify of this piece of art.Highly professional, knowledgeable, and responsive, Momento Press made the process of designing our print fun and seamless. We could not recommend them more highly!

Memento Press, what can I say, you really came through! I am leaving this because Im ecstatic with the results. Im a professional photographer and I had a client request a sexy yet tasteful boudoir photobook. I looked at several online vendors and they *almost* had what I wanted but I only had 3 weeks to ship before she presented to her partner. My concerns was that I had to trust an online vendor to get it there on time and have the right level of quality for the amount paid.I called a local Oakland press, Memento and talked to Josh the owner. He made me aware of even better options after looking at my photos and graphics and suggested a different type of layout/papertype that was suited for her level of sophistication and book quality. I sent the proof and specs, and within a few days they (thanks Sheryl!) produced a gorgeous leatherette black covered book with high quality matte paper with a slight laminate, perfect.Now the suspense was killing me, what did she think? The answer arrived this morning as I woke up to the clients text:I got the book! It’s beautiful. Thank you Kelly. For making me feel beautiful and helping me create this. I am forever grateful.Im over the moon that they pulled this off and the client who has high standards loved it. So if you need exquisite quality by folks who know their stuff and an owner that has a great sense of what is needed and style, go to Memento press! Looking forward to doing more business with them in the future. Thank you.

Memento Press is amazing. I’ve worked with them for years and just had them scan my wedding album. I’m so excited that I have all the images digitally. Now I just have to decide which image I want as a metal print. We already have metal prints that look fabulous. Plus the books they create can be as simple as just your digital images to as elaborate as adding mementos/maps/backgrounds/captions/stories to your images.The team is hands on and truly helpful. And they do it all! Get started now, you will be so glad you worked with Josh and his team.

Memento Press is awesome! I worked with Sheryl on my last project. Because of her dedication and expertise the project came out fantastic. The customer service is amazing. They were really involved and supported my project all the way through. Thank you.

Memento helped me capture a moment in time beautifully with a metal print of our team hamming it up on a playground structure. I wanted something big and dramatic and emotionally powerful - to remind the whole company of how great and close-knit our team is. The problem was we have all these cool photos in Dropbox that no one ever looked at, and no way to get them on the wall with some impact and permanence.Josh and the Memento team helped us figure out how to do it, with their dramatic metal print format... picking the right photo to use, cleaning up some problems in an otherwise awesome shot, and delivering the finished product flawlessly with every detail perfect. And it didnt take much of my time, which was the best... I put about half an hour into this project, and it was a total win.Id highly recommend Memento!

We go to Josh and team at Memento Press whenever we have an important project. They have delivered for us repeatedly. Great customer service and the rare ability to use good judgment even when our specs are far from complete. I recommend them without reservation!

Been using Memento Press for years. We trust them with everything from digitizing our most prized family artifacts, to printing wall art for us and getting challenging gifts to the recipient on time, at quality, every time. Cheaper options are out there, but none better.

Have been and continue to be really happy entrusting Memento Press with the one thing everyone agrees they would grab on their way out of their home if there was fire or earthquake: our memories. They have the ability to generate professional level scans and correct damaged and aged photos of now-gone family members. Multiple times, theyve taken snapshots and photos pulled out of phones, shoe boxes and drawers into curated, professionally-corrected, and elegantly laid-out singularly beautiful photo books printed using the highest quality processes that are cohesive, coherent and beautifully bound. When I need single prints, they print photos using some sort of high end process onto metal sheets. The inks and the shiny metal underneath that ink makes peoples eyes glow and shine, and pops the highlights in your photos completely amazingly. They arent the cheapest solution; but theyre the most economical if how you feel about your memories and photos matters. Go talk to them.
