The beautiful images of your wedding events
deserve a beautiful frame. Not only will they enhance your
image, a good frame will also help preserve your precious
memories for generations to come.
While you can definitely purchase and frame
photos yourself, like most things it is better to have a
professional do the work, especially for large portraits.
Whether you elect to use frames from your
photographer or take them to a professional framer, here are
some things to keep in mind:
·
Allow enough time to order the
frame you really want. Custom and specialty frames often need
to be special ordered.
·
Bring all the pictures to the
store with you.
·
For a memory box,
bring all the memorabilia you have, you can always leave
things out.
·
For your bridal portrait to be
displayed at the reception let your frame designer know the
style of the wedding, the colors and theme.
·
For your home, bring color
swatches or photographs that show the style of the room where
the pictures will hang.
·
If you are having photos framed
as gifts, keep in mind the style and décor of the recipients.
If you aren’t sure, keep the frame simple and tasteful.
·
Be sure to have all details –
size, matte color, frame color, backing, etc., included in the
written order.
You will want the frames
you choose to last a lifetime so spend enough time on design
to make sure that you will enjoy them forever.
New looks in framing
include a more eclectic look with inlaid frames, new colors
and textures as well as wood, metallic and distressed
finishes that will complement any home.
