What Is an AR Photo?

An AR photo (augmented reality photo) is a physical print that unlocks a digital experience — usually a video — when you point your phone at it. The print still looks like a normal photo. The magic happens when you scan it.

Printed memory, digital moment

Traditional photos freeze a second in time. AR photos keep the story behind that second. A wedding portrait can play the vows. A travel shot can play the street musicians you heard that night. A family page can play a birthday message.

With Glimp, you design a hardcover album or photobook, attach videos to the photos you care about most, and print when you’re ready. When the book arrives, open the Glimp app, scan the page, and watch the memory come back to life.

Why people love AR photos

• They feel personal — guests and family react the first time a page plays video.
• They stay physical — you still get a keepsake you can hold, gift, and display.
• They’re simple — design in the browser; scan with the app when the print arrives.

Album or photobook?

Glimp offers two cover series on the same A4 hardcover. Moments suits weddings, couples, and celebrations. Travels suits travel and everyday stories. Both support video attachments on your favorite pages.
