About us

AL Printed Memories started with a simple idea - turning everyday photos into something you can actually hold onto.
I’m Dawny, a solo mum based in Gisborne, creating custom canvas prints, photo collages, and keepsakes for busy humans who just want it done (and done well 😌).
What began as a way to create something meaningful for my own whānau quickly turned into a growing little business helping others do the same.

🖼️ What I do
I specialise in canvas prints, framed photo collages, and custom memory bundles.
Whether it’s a gift, a memorial piece, or just something special for your home. I take care of the whole process so you don’t have to stress.

💛 Why I do it
Photos sit in our phones all day… but the real magic happens when they’re brought to life.
There’s something different about seeing your memories printed. It hits deeper, it lasts longer, and it tells a story.
That’s what I love being part of.

🤝 What you can expect

Easy, guided ordering
Help choosing photos if you need it
A preview before anything is printed

No overwhelm. No guesswork. Just something meaningful at the end.

🌿 A little extra

Everything is made right here in NZ, with care and intention.
This isn’t mass-produced. It’s personal.
Thanks for trusting me with your memories 💛
