Decorating with Family Photos

A mama reached out recently after moving into a new home:

I photographed this family a couple of years ago and she wanted to share how she was decorating with the photos in their new place. I love when families share pics of their photos on display! Makes me so happy. I’m sharing with you (with this mama’s permission) so that you can get some ideas about printing and displaying your photos.

While most of my families choose the package that includes a custom album, it’s a great idea to print your photos for display around your home as well. Not only will it make you happy to look at your loved ones, but kiddos can feel extra loved and comforted by looking at photos of their parents connecting with them. And because I make photographic art for you, you’ll have gorgeous art photographs to display which are much better than snapshots, ya know?

Here’s three ideas for printing and displaying your photos:

  1. Make a gallery wall of your favorite framed prints.

  2. Hang an extra large canvas on an otherwise empty wall for a dramatic look.

  3. Like this mama did here, intersperse framed prints amongst family keepsakes in a bookshelf.

Here’s a favorite shot of mine from this session.
