No upfront payment
For Father’s Day, the kids, grandkids and the rest of the family each add a photo with Dad and a few words, and the photos become one professionally made video. The video above is our real example, made for a mother’s 65th birthday.
Everyone adds photos
What do you give a dad who says he wants nothing?
A video of everyone he loves, saying thanks. Picture Father’s Day: Dad young with a baby on his arm, the camping trips, the driving lessons, the weddings and the grandkids, each with a photo and a few words from the person who sent it.
- For Father’s Day
- From the whole family
- No speeches

All four frames are from our real example, made for a mother’s 65th birthday: 8 people in 3 countries, 19 photos in two days, and not a single recorded clip.
Why a video instead of another gadget?
He can buy a gadget; he can’t buy this. Dads often get tools and ties that stay in the box. A video from the whole family shows him what he means to each of you. Each frame holds the full photo, a few words and a small round portrait of the sender.

- 1A photo with Dad. From any year.
- 2A round portrait. It shows who sent the photo. It is optional.
- 3A few words. Up to 40 characters, e.g. “Best dad ever!”
Lines that fit the 40-character limit:
“Best dad ever!”
“Thanks for every ride!”
“Love you, Dad!”
“You taught me everything.”
“Still my hero!”
“Happy Father’s Day, Pops!”
More ideas are in What to write in a group video message.
Who can add a photo?
His kids, grandkids, partner, siblings and old friends. Start with the kids, then pass the link on. After adding a photo, each guest is asked who else should be in the video. Nobody needs an account or an app to take part.
