Pick and Print

Pick and Print is a Canadian small business that specializes in vector portraits and portrait-based personalized gifts. Based in Nova Scotia, the company takes customer-supplied photographs—of families, friends, pets, and memorable moments—and turns them into polished digital illustrations that are then applied to a curated range of physical products. Rather than offering general printing services, Pick and Print focuses on the art-plus-product combination: a hand-drawn style portrait becomes the centerpiece of a picture frame, a hoodie, a mug, a tumbler, or another keepsake. The product catalog spans several everyday categories. Apparel includes custom photo T-shirts, sweatshirts, and hoodies. Drinkware covers ceramic mugs (including colored-handle and heart-handle styles), enamel camping mugs, tumblers, frosted glass mugs, and color-changing mugs. Home and living items include linen pillow covers, sequin pillows, throw pillow covers, pillow cases, and acrylic photo frames with LED lamp bases. Wall art and accessories round out the range with square rock slate photo plaques, square magnets, shoe charms, and iPhone cases. Prices listed on the company's website range from a few dollars for small accessories to roughly fifty dollars for larger framed or apparel items, with frequent sale pricing shown. Pick and Print positions itself as a simpler alternative to the often confusing process of commissioning custom art. The company emphasizes three promises: simplicity (one place for both artwork and printing), speed (proofs delivered in a few days rather than weeks), and a personal touch (each portrait drawn with care rather than auto-generated). The brand's stated purpose is to help customers express appreciation—turning a favorite photo into a gift that feels meaningful without requiring an elaborate speech. All products are printed in Canada, and the company ships Canada-wide. Its Nova Scotia base is presented as part of its identity, drawing inspiration from the province's creative community of musicians, painters, makers, and crafters. Pick and Print describes itself as a small business and continues to add new custom products to its lineup. As of the available evidence, the company operates as a private business with no publicly disclosed parent company, founder name, or founding year.

Pick and Print is a Canadian small business based in Nova Scotia that specializes in vector portraits and portrait-based personalized gifts. The company was built around the idea of turning meaningful moments into gifts people want to keep. It operates as a direct-to-consumer brand through its website, pickandprint.ca, and ships Canada-wide. The business emerged from an observed gap in the custom gift market: customers wanting a thoughtful personalized item often faced a confusing process of finding an artist, waiting for replies, hoping the print quality would be acceptable, and worrying about shipping. Pick and Print was created to simplify that journey by combining artwork creation and printing in one place, offering proofs within a few days rather than weeks, and ensuring each portrait is drawn with care rather than auto-generated. Rather than general printing, the company focuses on transforming customer photos—of families, friends, pets, and inside jokes—into clean, modern digital illustrations. These vector portraits are then placed on carefully chosen products such as picture frames, hoodies, sweatshirts, mugs, and tumblers. The product range has expanded over time to include drinkware (ceramic mugs, enamel camping mugs, tumblers, frosted glass mugs, color-changing mugs), home goods (linen pillow covers, sequin pillows, throw pillow covers, pillow cases, acrylic frames with LED bases), wall art (rock slate photo plaques), and accessories (magnets, shoe charms, iPhone cases). The company presents its Nova Scotia location as integral to its identity, drawing inspiration from the province's community of musicians, painters, makers, crafters, and storytellers. Pick and Print describes itself as a small business and states that more custom products are coming soon. As of the available evidence, no founding year, founder name, parent company, or ownership structure has been publicly disclosed.
