We have been professionally creating life-size cutouts for over ten years in our lab. We make cutouts from your image file or photo. Please send us a high resolution image file, usually that would be the original file from the camera or phone. Low resolution images like screen grabs from a phone, or small images from the web or social media are rarely sharp enough to make an acceptable life-size cutout. If you're not sure, email us the file first.
We DO NOT have a library of stock images of celebrities, super heros or politicians. Our life size cutout is a real photographic print mounted on 3/16" foamcore board with a matte laminate and a fold out stand and base. Please provide us with the actual height of the subject so we can make your cutout really life-size. If we are shipping to you, we will make the cutout in two pieces with a tight fitting tab and slot to seamlessly re-assemble. For commercial use, we recommend that you add the double thickness foamboard for lastly durability. We can make cutouts of just about anything, not just people. We've cut out dogs, motorcycles, farm animals, stage props, graphic designs, and more. Turn- around time in our lab is about 3 days plus shipping. Questions? Call us.
The basic life size cutout is a real photographic print mounted on 3/16" foamcore board with a matte laminate and a fold out stand and base. Most other online cutouts are printed on thin cardboard. It is perfect for any event, party, promotion or special occasion. We can make it from any digital file, print or slide.
A standard cutout up to 30" wide is $30 per foot of height (minimum 3 feet), cutouts 30"-36" wide are $35 per foot of height and cutouts 36"-44" wide are $40 per foot of height (minimum 3 feet). A non-reflective matte lamination is included. Double thickness reinforcement is an additional $10.00 per foot.
The price is based on the height and width of the cutout, and includes the cost of the print. Talking bubbles are $40.00 each and are made to be removable from the cutout. Shipping is $30 for the first cutout and $10 for each additional.
Cutouts more than three feet tall are shipped in two pieces and can be easily and securely re-assembled. Our Standard Shipping in the continental USA is by FedEx Ground at $30 for the first cutout and $10 more for each additional cutout shipped in the same box. We usually ship within 2-3 days after receiving your order so you can estimate delivery in 7-10 days.
Shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, International, overnight or 2-day service will require an additional charge. We will call you with the details. We DO NOT ship cutouts by USPS Priority or Express Mail.
If you have a question, call us at 562-433-4937 or email us at info@fromex.com.
If you are taking a new digital photo for the cutout: Set your digital camera to the highest JPG resolution possible. Stand back and zoom in to make your subject fill the frame vertically top to bottom, be sure to include the feet, and use your flash to fill the shadows; the background is irrelevant.
If you only have a print, mail it to us along with your instructions, and we will phone or email you to confirm your order.

"I wanted to take the time to thank you for the great job creating an exact life size cut-out of my clients wedding photo from 50 years ago. It became the centerpiece of their 50th wedding celebration and was very instrumental in helping them celebrate the momentous occasion."

"..this order exceeded my expectations. The turnaround time was amazing, the image looks great and the edges are clean and smooth. All of this from placing the order in Vancouver, B.C. and returning home to New Jersey to receive it. Thanks again for making the process so effortless and the outcome so wonderful."

"I had a 6'4" cutout made for a friend for an upcoming birthday party. I can't tell you how much FUN these can be at parties. The cutout is unbelievably human like. I ordered online and picked it up a couple days later -- what could be easier? "
Connie K., Clovis, CA 2017
"The cut outs you made us for the World Ag Expo were the hit of the show! We used very recognizable people, and placed them strategically in our 40 X 80 foot space. People came by just to take their picture with them! ....Friends have asked me how I am going to top this next year!"
