Send photos, letters, cards, calendars, and more — quick, easy, and with a positive lasting impact.
Inmate Photos® makes it simple to stay connected with someone in jail or prison. Whether your loved one is in a federal, state, county, or city facility, we help you send real, physical mail — without the stress of you having to figure out what is and isn't allowed. We serve over 4,000 correctional facilities across the United States and specialize in handling complex prison mail rules, ensuring your package is delivered to your incarcerated loved one.
You can send full-color photo prints, personalized letters, greeting cards, photobooks, calendars, postcards, Sudoku puzzles, crossword puzzles, how-to-draw tutorials, and even inmate-focused books like jailhouse cookbooks. We already offer great pricing, but our bundle deals and subscriptions make it even more affordable — so your loved one never feels forgotten.
Most people don’t know the rules of the facility they’re mailing to — that’s where we come in. Inmate Photos® automatically shows jail-specific rules at the time of upload, including photo restrictions and content guidelines. If a facility has a photo limit, we’ll automatically space out your order to stay compliant. You don’t need to figure anything out — we guide you through it every step of the way.
Unlike some other apps, we specialize in accuracy and compliance. While Pelipost, FreePrints, GTL Getting Out, Access Corrections, Securus Technologies, JPay, Corrlinks, Text Behind app, Pigeonly, and ICSolutions may offer inmate-related services, Inmate Photos® stands out by doing the hard part for you — helping your mail meet jail requirements from the start.
Your support matters! Staying connected helps reduce recidivism and creates a lasting, positive impact on the lives of incarcerated men and women. Every photo or letter is a reminder that they’re not forgotten. At Inmate Photos®, we’re proud to help you deliver hope and connection when it’s needed most.
This app has amazing sales all the time and freebies too! Been using for months and not 1 time have I ever paid full price for anything. Only pay shipping! 5 photos free with only having to pay $4.95 for shipping! Photo quality is great and if you have an issue, customer service gets back to you quickly. App is very user friendly and clean to navigate. It’s nice that there are apps out there like this for those of us missing a loved one who’s incarcerated. The jail my bf is at only accepts photos straight from a company so this app is awesome and appreciated!Only negative that stood out to me is the extra (very overpriced) charge to send a note with your pics. You can skip this option if you want, which I always do. I will say- if they did not offer these awesome sales I would prob never order from them bc they’re expensive. But their sales are on point so don’t have to worry about that!

Don’t waste your money
POF Fake
Nothing ever sent lost $40. I made a mistake of placing a order January 1 here we are January 27 and nothing has been delivered to the prison at all. No pictures have been delivered. I’ve called several times they cannot provide any tracking numbers or What happened to the pictures? They refused to refund the money just keep saying that they will send more pictures, but they have no way of on their website it clearly states they do not refund money if you never get your pictures in my world. This is called a scam.I went to Walmart and printed my photos for less than four dollars bought a card. Put the photos in the card and mailed to the prison and it was received within seven days cost less than $10. They charge $40 and never deliver. It seems like a scam. Their customer service is so poor all they will tell you if they’ll send more photos at a later date once again they cannot give you a tracking number nor tell you when they’re gonna actually send the photos. Stay away from this company. All they’re doing is taking advantage of the families who have people incarcerated.

I can’t even put into words how thankful I am for Photo Inmates. When you’re dealing with a loved one being incarcerated, everything feels heavy, stressful, and overwhelming. This service brought a sense of comfort during a really hard time in my life. They made the process simple, treated the situation with care and respect, and never made me feel rushed or like “just another customer.” The communication was kind, professional, and reassuring, and the turnaround was fast when I needed it most.Being able to see my loved one meant more to me than I can explain. It gave me peace, reassurance, and a little bit of normalcy when things felt anything but normal. I truly appreciate the compassion and effort they put into what they do. If you’re in a tough situation and need a service you can trust, this is it. From the bottom of my heart thank you.
