Photo video
You have a thousand photos of them on your phone and nowhere to put them. Give them a song to play to.
A photo video set to a song written about them
Pick 3 to 20 photos and they play to an original song with the person’s name in it, each lyric line on screen as it is sung. The video comes free with every unlocked song. It is put together in your own browser, so your photos never leave your phone or computer.
Hear the second a name lands
Claire, you make the season feel so bright,
You wrote“We got engaged at the Christmas market in Chicago in 2019.”
The song singsBack in Chicago under cold winter skies,
From a real song made here: “Sweeter Than Cocoa”, for Claire, from what her husband typed.
The moment you give it
You pick twenty photos, from the first blurry one to last week. Each lyric line appears on screen as it's sung, their name lands on the photo of the night everything changed, and it plays straight from your phone.
Camera roll, years of it
Start with one memory
Pick a question. The form opens with your first line already started.
The kind of song that plays under the photos
Two finished songs made on this site. Your video uses the full song, start to finish.

Your photos stay on your device
Most slideshow makers upload your pictures to their servers before anything happens. This one does not. The video is assembled inside your browser on your own phone or laptop, and the pictures you pick are never sent to us. The only thing the page asks our server for is when each lyric line starts. If you later want the finished video on the private song link you send them, you can choose to upload that one file, never the pictures.
Doing the work on your device needs a reasonably current browser. A recent Chrome, Edge or Safari can do it; if yours cannot, the page says so the moment you press the button to make the video.
No photos to hand?
Make it without picking any and the video uses our own painted illustrations instead. That way you can still send something on the day, and make a second version with real pictures once you have dug them out.
Is this an AI music video?
Not in the way most AI music video tools use the phrase. Nothing here generates moving footage or animates anyone’s face. It is a photo slideshow with the lyrics on screen, timed to a song that AI wrote and sang about one person. If you would like a performer on screen as well, the separate AI singer video has an invented singer perform about 30 seconds of your chorus.
