You spend countless hours planning your photo session—finding the perfect outfit, coordinating with your photographer, and carving out time in your busy schedule to capture this moment. All of that just to have the images sit on a hard drive, never to be seen? I think not! Knowing how to display photos at home is one of the simplest ways to bring your memories to life, add warmth to your space, and create daily reminders of love, connection, and joy. Here are some of my favorite, timeless ways to display photos at home.
Matted Albums
Matted albums are, without a doubt, my favorite way to display photographs. Select 10–20 of your most cherished images from your session, and each one is showcased on its own page, allowing you to slow down and savor every detail. These albums are like elegant storybooks for your family—timeless, beautifully crafted, and effortlessly accessible whenever you want to revisit those precious moments.
You can choose from three luxurious cover fabrics—linen, leather, or velvet—and personalize your album with a variety of gorgeous custom debossing options, making each album uniquely yours.
These albums are far more than storage; they are a thoughtful and enduring way to display photos at home while affirming your children’s value and confidence each day.
Linen Print Boxes
Linen print boxes are perfect for keeping your photos safe yet accessible. Think of them as a treasure chest of family memories. You can store prints inside and bring them out during family gatherings or cozy evenings at home.
They’re also wonderful for rotating photos in frames or leaning them on shelves for a casual, lived-in look. Every time you see or handle a print, it’s another way of learning how to display photos at home in a way that feels fresh and effortless.
Custom Frames
Walking past a framed family photo every day is like a gratitude practice built into your home. Custom frames elevate your images into artwork and turn your walls into a reflection of your story.
A few tips for displaying framed photos at home:
- Correct height: Hang the center of your frame about 57–60 inches from the floor — considered eye level for most people.
- Groupings: Odd numbers (3, 5, 7) create a more natural, curated look.
- Mix and match: Pair frames with shelves, plants, or artwork for texture and depth.
Why Displaying Photos Matters
When you understand how to display photos at home, you’ll see it’s about more than decorating your walls — it’s about connection, confidence, and celebrating your family’s love.
Research shows that children benefit from seeing themselves reflected in their environment. Photos reinforce self-esteem, a sense of belonging, and positive identity. Beyond that, they spark conversation, invite storytelling, and connect family members across generations. Every time you pass a photo on the wall, pick up an album, or open a linen box, you’re pausing to notice love, growth, and shared experiences.

Until next time,
My love for photography began in a high school darkroom, watching images slowly appear. Since then, I’ve been drawn to quiet, meaningful moments rooted in connection and home. As a mother of three and a film photographer, I approach each story with care, seeking what’s honest and lasting.
Here on the blog, you’ll find recent sessions, tips, and reflections—whether you’re a fellow creative, a brand, or a mother wanting to capture this season. I hope it leaves you inspired and more in love with your own story.
