“Illura helped me feel seen as a mom. For the first time, I’m actually in the photos—and they mean so much.”
Illura
Make Memories Together
Illura is a safe, collaborative photo-sharing app helping families capture and preserve the moments that matter most. Made for moms by a mom who gets it, Illura ensures moms are not just behind the camera, but in the memories too.
Capture Meaningful Family Moments
Moms are the quiet heroes of everyday life, consistently steady, selfless, and strong. They hold families together, often without recognition, pouring their love into every detail of our lives. Yet many feel invisible in the very stories they help create. According to the social app Peanut, 93% of moms feel under-appreciated or unseen, especially when they’re missing from family photos because they’re always the ones taking them.
Here’s what Founder, Caroline Stewart, has to say:
Introducing Illura: The Memory App Made for Moms
