Why a reel takes
a little while.

Every reel is built to order — never mass-produced. We don't print to plastic; we record your photos onto real film and assemble each reel by hand. That's the few days between your upload and the moment it lights up your wall.

01Recorded to real 35mm film
Recorded to real 35mm film
Your eight photos are exposed onto genuine 35mm film and developed by hand — real photographic chemistry, the way slides have always been made.
02Cut to fit, frame by frame
Cut to fit, frame by frame
Every frame is meticulously trimmed and seated into its reel on a jig we built in the studio. It's slow, careful work — and it shows.
03Aligned by a careful eye
Aligned by a careful eye
We check that each slide sits dead-center in its window, so every click lands crisp, bright, and perfectly in focus.
04Boxed and sent to you
Boxed and sent to you
Your finished reel ships ready to drop straight into the miniProjector. Dim the lights, click through, and there they are on the wall.
Assembled by hand Real 35mm film 7–10 days, upload to doorstep
Seen in the wild

Real reels, real rooms.

Tag us in your unboxing or your first wall-lit reel and we'll send a free reel credit — our way of saying thanks for sharing the light.

Good to know

Questions,
answered.

Straight answers to the questions we hear most.

No — and that's the whole idea. Buy the projector today; we email a curation link so you can pick your eight favorites whenever the moment is right. Choosing is the hard part, so do it calmly. There's no rush.

Eight. We print your eight favorites onto a single reel you click through, one warm frame at a time.

Your projector ships within two days, beautifully boxed and ready to hand over with some stock reels. Once you've curated your photos, we print, run quality checks, and mail your reel — most arrive within about ten days of curating. You'll get a tracking number when it leaves our shop.

None of the above. It runs on LR44 batteries that you can swap anytime — no app, no screen, no account, no subscription. Just click and look.

Anything from a recent phone works beautifully. We ask for images at least 900 × 900 pixels; higher resolution looks even crisper thrown on the wall.

Ages 3 to 100. Kids love it at bedtime, grandparents love it at the table. (For little ones under 3, skip it — small parts and a bright light.)

We'll make it right. Because reels are custom we can't take returns, but we'll correct any production issue — just email help@projectagram.com with your order number and we'll take care of it.

Our story

Made with in San Francisco.

We started Projectagram because a photo on a phone disappears, but a photo thrown on the wall stops the whole room. Every reel is printed and assembled here, then mailed to your door — a small, mechanical, deeply personal thing in a world of screens.

  • Patented reel system — U.S. Patent 11,610,608.
  • Projector mailed in two days -- great last minute gift!
  • Buy now, curate your photos whenever you're ready.
