Remote Scan Process
We are so excited to guide you through creating your bespoke pregnancy sculpture — a truly unique keepsake that celebrates this precious moment in your life. The following instructions are designed to ensure your remote scan captures every detail perfectly, so that your final sculpture is a flawless, elegant representation of you. Please read through carefully and follow each step to achieve the best results.
Below is an example of the type of video you need to capture. Additionally, we have included three angles showing the same capture from different perspectives. These examples are designed to help the person helping you understand how to navigate around yourself while filming the scan, and how each rotation should flow to achieve the best results.

Remote Scan Instructions
For the remote scan process, you will need a phone and someone to help you capture the video.
To create the best possible result, we require three smooth rotations captured in one continuous video.
The first rotation is filmed from above, gently looking down; the second at mid-level, looking straight on; and the final from below, looking upwards. The completed video should be approximately 1 minute and 30 seconds in total, with each rotation lasting around 30 seconds.
At the end of the third rotation, please slowly move in to focus on key details — particularly the hands — and gently film around them, as demonstrated in the example video. This allows us to capture the finer details that bring the sculpture to life.
If possible, please film two to three poses, creating one continuous video per pose. Once complete, kindly send the full-resolution videos via WeTransfer to love@treasureyourbump.co.uk:

Alternatively, you may send them via WhatsApp. If using WhatsApp, please select the “Document” option so the files remain uncompressed.

For the best results, choose a well-lit space with as much room as possible, allowing the camera to move freely around you. Filming too close can affect the accuracy of the 3D model. It’s important to remain completely still until all three rotations — and the close-up detail capture — are complete. Please tie your hair up so it sits away from your neck, and if wearing underwear, opt for lighter colours, as darker shades do not scan as well.
When it comes to posing, feel free to explore a few options. Subtle variations, such as softly bending one knee, can create a more elegant and dynamic silhouette. If you choose to have your arms up, it is best to rest your hands on your head, keeping your neck clear. If you’d like guidance on poses, We’re very happy to advise.
POSE SUGGESTIONS can be found further down this page.
The ideal time to do your scan is between week 32 and week 36 of your pregnancy.
For remote scans, we first review and process your videos to ensure they have captured correctly before we move forward with any payment. As lighting and movement can affect results, not all scans are successful, and this step ensures quality is never compromised.
Once your scan has been successfully processed, we will send you a short video of the result along with a payment link for an £80 deposit. We then carefully refine and clean the scan before sending you a digital proof, together with a curated selection of finishes to choose from. Should you wish, we can provide an updated proof in your chosen finish before final approval.
Once you’re completely happy, we begin creating your sculpture. At this stage, you’ll be sent a payment link for the remaining balance and we’ll request your delivery address. As your sculpture nears completion — typically within 8 weeks, though occasionally up to 12 weeks after sign-off of your digital proof — we’ll be in touch to personalise your keepsake box and complete your piece.
Please complete the confidentiality agreement below and send it back if you would like to go ahead with the sculpture
