Kimberley Family portraits are a beautiful way to capture and celebrate the most important moments in life. Whether it’s a milestone, a candid moment, or a special family gathering, these images tell the story of your journey together. But what happens after your photo session? Instead of letting those precious images stay on a computer or in a digital album, why not turn them into a stunning visual centerpiece in your home? Creating a wall gallery is one of the best ways to give those cherished memories the spotlight they deserve while adding personal style to your space.
The Importance of Printing and Hanging Your Family Photos
Family portraits hold a special place in our hearts, and there’s no better way to honor the memories from your photo session than by displaying them proudly in your home. Hanging your family photos not only personalizes your space but also creates a warm and inviting atmosphere for family and guests alike. Photos from your session serve as daily reminders of the love, joy, and connection you share, and they’re a great way to celebrate the milestones and moments that matter most. Surrounding yourself with these beautiful memories brings a sense of comfort and belonging, making your house feel more like a home.
Signature Collection: The Classic Central Arrangement
The Signature Collection is perfect for creating a balanced and eye-catching gallery, ideal for larger spaces like living rooms or hallways. The layout features one large central print, surrounded by a selection of smaller prints, forming a cohesive, symmetrical design.
How to Create It:
- Start with the centerpiece: Hang a 24×36 framed print as the focal point.
- Surround with smaller frames: Arrange four 8×12 prints, two 16×20 prints, and two 11×14 prints evenly around the centerpiece for a balanced look.
- Maintain spacing: Keep about 2-3 inches of space between each frame for a clean, organized feel.
2. Deluxe Collection: A Creative Gallery Wall
For those seeking a more dynamic arrangement, the Deluxe Collection offers a mix of different-sized frames, giving you a creative and unique display that still maintains balance.
How to Create It:
- Anchor with a large frame: Place a 20×24 framed print in the center.
- Balance with smaller prints: Add 20×20 and 11×14 prints around the anchor, creating a visually appealing, balanced gallery.
- Plan the layout: Experiment with different arrangements by laying the frames on the floor before hanging.
3. Petite Collection: The Minimalist Trio
For smaller spaces, the Petite Collection offers a clean, minimalist approach. With just three equally sized frames, this layout is perfect for hallways, entryways, or other narrow areas.
How to Create It:
- Three aligned frames: Choose three matching 16×20 framed prints and align them side by side.
- Ensure perfect alignment: Use a level to make sure all frames are hung evenly and spaced equally (2-3 inches apart).
