Where Paper Meets Poetry – Your Likeness, Precisely Carved in Shadow

  At CarveMoments, we transform your photographs into delicate hand-cut paper portraits, a modern twist on the ancient art of paper-cut. Each piece is meticulously crafted from archival black or red paper, where negative space and intricate cuts reveal your subject’s essence with striking elegance.

✨ Why Our Paper-Cut Portraits Captivate

1. Time-Honored Technique, Modern Precision:                                                              Laser-guided hand-cutting ensures razor-sharp details (eyelashes, pet whiskers). Choose classic Chinese red or dramatic black (contemporary framing).

2. Your Photo, Reborn as Shadow Art:                                                                              Styles:                                                                                                                                          Minimalist silhouettes (bold negative space)                                                                          Layered portraits (3D shadowbox depth)                                                                                Custom motifs (add hearts, paw prints, or zodiac signs)

Sizes:                                                                                                                                          5"x7" to 16"x20" with optional rice paper backing.

3. Heirloom Presentation:                                                                                                  Framed in floating glass displays to highlight cutwork.                                                      Includes red silk tassel (traditional Chinese blessing).

4. Cultural & Emotional Resonance:                                                                                  Connects to 2000-year-old folk art traditions.                                                                    Ideal for multicultural weddings or ancestral tributes.
