I’m a visual person… I like to see things before I buy them, so I thought maybe my clients (potential clients) might be like that too! I know buying the digital negatives are the current “thing to do”, but I really want to show you why buying prints is so important. Most of the time those digital files just sit on the disc, not being printed and displayed in your home… why wouldn’t you want to show of those beautiful kiddos and perfect family photos?! They deserve to be above the fireplace, on the walls around your home or even sent to Grandma to have her show of her grand babies to all her friends
Here are some of the photos that I recently had prints made because I wanted to display my clients in the studio and at home…
Baby Sienna…. goodness she was such a perfect little newborn.. here’s a 16×20 and an 8×10… doesn’t the 8×10 just look TINY? The bigger the better to display your little ones! (sounds a lot like little red riding hood, but you know what I mean)
Now here’s a 16×20, 11×14 and the 8×10, just to give you an idea of the sizes. I think we are used to thinking.. 8×10 that’s HUGE.. well as you saw in the picture above.. definitely not as big as we are used to
Here’s my FAVORITE picture from Tom and Holly’s wedding, I just had to make a couple of prints for myself… on the left is a 16×20 Standout with Black finish and on the right is an 11×14 mounted. The mounting keeps the picture from curving over time, it’s a great support. All photos bigger than 8×10 come mounted to ensure your photos will last for a VERY long time!
Please don’t judge the quality of this photo.. it was taken in my basement with absolutely NO window light…
Anyhooo, here’s all of them displayed up on my mantle…. Black Standout, Mounted 16×20, Mounted 11×14 and Mounted 8×10. What a difference, right?
Here’s the Black Standout Mount from the side…
If you have a moment, go take a look at my fellow workshop friend Allyson… she just opened up her studio space and has these BEAUTIFUL displays of canvas art, wall clusters and much more! Her work is phenomenal and her studio is just perfect! It makes me giddy with excitement about my studio space!
