Photo Gallery Wall + Album Inspiration II How to display your portraits (So they don’t live and die on your hard drive)

If you’ve ever been to our Parisian apartment, you’ll know that we absolutely LOVE having portraits of us, our family, and our travels up on the walls as our decoration.

If you’ve ever been to our Parisian apartment, you’ll know that we absolutely LOVE having portraits of us, our family, and our travels up on the walls as our decoration. Pyk also gave me two framed Beatles art photographs that we have above our couch that we absolutely cherish! 

It’s one of the things I love most when you walk into someone’s home is that you see who they are, what they love, and what they use to fill their home with joy. As an extremely visual person and photographer, I fill our home with photographs and other art that inspires us. We even have a framed magazine cover that my aunt gave me when I moved to France, the ticket from the bottle of wine we opened with my in-laws to celebrate our engagement, and a wall light in the form of the word, “Smile”. 

You look around and you feel us.

Over here at KDP we help our clients all the time create the PERFECT wall portraits, gallery walls and albums. We consider our job unfinished until you have something from your portrait session adorning your home or at the least, in a stunning album. 

Here are a few photographs I did recently and how we would make them come to life as art in your home. 

How do you display your photographs? Tell us in the comments!

Ex: We are coming to Paris this spring at the end of March and it's our first time! We don't often travel so this is really big for us. I've been a Francophile since I was in my teens and have always dreamed of coming. I'd love this for my family and especially to be able to relive this special trip everyday on my walls with an art piece! My kids are 2, 5 and 9. Crossing my fingers and toes to be chosen!!
