FAQ – Common Questions About 3D Castings Dorset

How long does it take to create my 3D casting?

The process usually takes around 6 weeks from the day of your appointment to create your 3D casting. I take the time to ensure every detail is perfect, making each piece a truly special keepsake.

When is the best time to create my baby’s hand and foot casts?

I can create casts from the day your baby is born, and I recommend booking a session within the first few months to capture the tiniest details. However, I can create casts for babies of any age. The earlier, the better to capture those small, delicate features that will become treasured memories.

What if my baby moves during the session?

It’s completely normal for babies to move during a casting session! While we can’t keep your baby still, I have over 20 years of experience and plenty of tips to help reduce movement. I work with you to ensure the process is as smooth and comfortable as possible, creating a calm and relaxed environment for both you and your baby. Rest assured, we can work with the natural movement and still create a perfect keepsake.

Is it safe to create a 3D casting for my baby?

Yes, absolutely! I use high-quality, baby-safe alginate to create the casts. Alginate is a soft, safe material that captures the finest details and is commonly used in medical and dental applications. It’s gentle on your baby’s skin, ensuring a comfortable experience while providing a durable and detailed cast.

How long does my baby stay in the alginate?

The time spent in the alginate is very brief—typically around 1 minute. The material sets quickly and comfortably, allowing me to capture every detail without your baby being in any discomfort. Your baby will only be in the alginate for a short period, and the experience will be as gentle as possible.

Will I be satisfied with the final result?

I am committed to providing you with the best possible result. Don’t just take my word for it—take a look at over 100 5-star reviews on TripAdvisor to see how happy other families are with their keepsakes. My attention to detail ensures that each casting is crafted with care, capturing the essence of your precious memories. You can trust that your casting will be a beautiful reminder of those early moments.
