Frequently Asked Questions

3D life casting is a process that captures a highly detailed mould of hands, feet, faces, or full forms using professional casting materials. During your session, we apply a skin-safe, non-toxic moulding material that sets within 45-90 seconds, followed by a casting powder that creates a solid, lasting sculpture. The result is a one-of-a-kind, three-dimensional keepsake that preserves a moment in time.
