About Polaroid

Polaroid makes instant cameras, film, photo printers, and accessories for capturing, printing, and keeping photographs. Its creative character pairs analog photography and a classic look with modern features and personal expression.

Use the lowercase polaroid wordmark when the brand name needs to be explicit, in black on light backgrounds or white on dark ones. Use the color spectrum circle where a compact brand signature fits. Keep both unaltered and distinct from product imagery.

Polaroid’s voice

Write with warmth and an invitation to make things, pairing the tactile appeal of analog photography with a clear, contemporary sense of possibility. Use direct, vivid language that celebrates the process and the memories photographs hold.

  • “Forget shortcuts and pixel perfection. The Polaroid Mod is built for real analog creativity: hands-on, intentional, and ultimately rewarding”
  • “Create and remember your lasting memories with Polaroid Instant Cameras. Capture and cherish your special moments with instant photos”
  • “Portable, wearable, and take-anywhere-able”
  • “For creativity that’s earned, not generated”

Dos and don’ts

Do

  • Pair analog photography with contemporary creative possibilities.
  • Use specific, human language about making, capturing, and keeping photographs.
  • Keep product descriptions clear about features and compatibility.
  • Use the five spectrum colors together, in the fixed order of the spectrum circle, as the brand’s signature.

Don’t

  • Don’t describe Polaroid photography as pixel-perfect or shortcut-driven; the brand explicitly celebrates hands-on analog creativity.
  • Don’t replace concrete product details with vague claims when explaining a camera’s features or compatibility.
  • Don’t stretch, outline or add effects to the polaroid wordmark, or set it where it loses contrast.
