PhotoShows are a perfect way to remember and celebrate a loved one’s life. Maxims produce Tribute PhotoShows that can be shared, watched time and time again and treasured for generations to come.

Digital or printed photographs are used with titles, movements, fades, captions and music to create a PhotoShow, making the viewing of your cherished pictures a new and poignant experience. Show timings vary, but we suggest five or six pictures a minute. This allows a comfortable time for reflection as the PhotoShow is viewed.

PhotoShows can be watched during the Funeral Service and/or Reception. Normally, a key picture is displayed throughout the service. The PhotoShow is then started at an appropriate point and usually lasts for five minutes.

The PhotoShow can be looped during receptions to ensure that everyone has a chance to view and reflect on the pictures. Additional images can be included if required.

Any equipment required can be supplied. (Projector, screen, DVD player and audio facilities if needed.)

Whether it's a family member or dear friend, we understand that this is a difficult time for you and will make every effort to make the process as simple as possible. Contact us and we will talk you through the process and arrange collection of your media.

Meanwhile, gather your pictures - around 25 to 30 - select an order, a key picture and add any notes using ‘Post Its™’  for each image.

Best results are from high resolution digital photos and originals. Although, if you do have items of great sentimental value of which you wish to include, we may be able to arrange for actual photographs to be taken. This could be of a pet, a place or an object.

Please note, if you are scanning pictures for the PhotoShow, these need to be at least 300 DPI.

We can also suggest suitable music to enhance your PhotoShow.

Your items will be returned to you on completion, along with the finished PhotoShow.

Every Maxims PhotoShow is provided in a Presentation DVD case as seen here on the right. (Click on the image for a closer look)

The CD/DVD images are printed (not stickers) and will not discolour, fade or run like other cheaper and inferior labelling techniques.

The cases are clear fronted and designed to be on display. Being on display will make it a keepsake that will last forever.

Apart from amazing everyone that sees the PhotoShow, they also make the perfect and most unique gift.
