Laser Engraving Photos

Engraving a photo is as much about preparing the image as running the laser: photos usually need converting to grayscale and dithering so the laser reproduces shading as dots. Material and settings then control contrast. These projects include step-by-step instructions and note the image prep and materials used. Match a project to your material and image, and run a small test engrave before committing your prepared photo to the final piece.

FAQs

How do you laser engrave photos?

Prepare your design and material, set the machine to values suited to photos, and run a small test before the full piece. Settings vary by laser and material, so start from a project's noted values. Follow the step-by-step instructions and adjust to your own photo.
