New Orleans Framed Wall Art

THE INITIAL CONSULTATION

The journey begins with a warm welcome and design consultation. (Book a free inquiry here with Sarah) From our first meeting, I make it my mission to understand your family’s story and vision for your photo wall! We discuss the kinds of photos you want to include, share favorite moments and milestones, and envision how the final display will look in your home. My goal is to make you feel excited and confident about the process from start to finish!

TIPS FOR CHOOSING PHOTOS:

1. Highlight Milestones: Including photos from significant moments like weddings, births, and anniversaries adds depth and meaning to your wall.

2. Mix Candid and Posed Shots: Combining candid moments with posed portraits brings a personal touch to your gallery.

3. Incorporate Different Ages: Displaying photos from various stages of your family’s life adds a sense of continuity and growth.

4. Select High-Quality Images: High-quality images maintain their clarity and impact when enlarged, making your wall art stunning. Only professionally taken photos are able to be printed clearly on larger prints. (No iPhone pics here!) At Sarah Finicle Photography, all of your images are carefully captured by Sarah herself, and all images are masterfully edited to be professionally printed with the goal of being hung in your home.

PLANNING THE LAYOUT

I guide you through various layout options, each offering a unique aesthetic. My expertise helps you visualize how the final display will look in your home, ensuring it complements your space beautifully!

GRID LAYOUT

A grid layout offers a clean, symmetrical look with identical frames and evenly spaced photos, perfect for showcasing a series of portraits or milestone events.

ASYMMETRICAL LAYOUT

For a more dynamic and creative display, an asymmetrical layout allows for different frame sizes and varied spacing, giving your photo wall a relaxed and eclectic feel.

LINEAR LAYOUT

A linear layout creates a simple yet elegant display, ideal for hallways or above furniture. Arranging photos in a straight line, either horizontally or vertically, adds a touch of sophistication.

CLUSTER LAYOUT

A cluster layout groups photos closely together, creating a striking focal point on the wall. This style is perfect for showcasing a variety of photos in different sizes and shapes.

SELECTING FRAMES

Choosing the right frames enhances the beauty of your photos and complements your home’s décor. I provide guidance to help you make the best choices for your home! Our custom framing options are only available to professional photographers to order - our frames are of the highest quality, backed with archival materials, mounted on museum quality board and beautifully matted. They are also created with 99% UV blocking acrylic - our frames were made to last for generations! You will not find frames of this caliber anywhere else! : ) We offer many sizes, colors, and designs! We can look at all of the options during the design consult and reveal session.

CONSISTENT FRAMES

Using the same type of frame for all photos can create a cohesive and unified look, ideal for grid layouts and providing a polished finish.

MIX AND MATCH

Mixing different frame styles, colors, and materials adds texture and interest to your photo wall, reflecting your family’s personality.

COLOR COORDINATION

Frames that match your home’s color scheme tie the display together. Neutral frames like black, white, or wood tones are versatile and timeless, while accent colors add a pop of personality.

MATTING

All of our frames come with professional matting - it elevates the overall look of your photos, providing a clean border and drawing attention to the images.

PLAN YOUR LAYOUT

Using a special software, our team is able to use a photo of your own home to design a layout for your wall art! It allows us to experiment with different arrangements, see which frames you love best on your own wall, and which images you like in different layouts!

WHEN YOU ARE READY TO HANG YOUR WALL ART

Once you have received your wall art, and you are ready to hang them on the wall, remember that consistent spacing between frames is key to a polished look. We recommend using a ruler to ensure equal distances, typically maintaining 2-3 inches of space between frames.

LEVELING

Ensuring each frame is level with a tool makes a significant difference in the overall appearance.

STEP BACK AND ADJUST

Periodically stepping back to view the photo wall from a distance helps us see the overall balance and make any necessary adjustments.

CREATING TIMELESS HEIRLOOMS

Your family’s story deserves to be told through beautiful, timeless images. Our heirloom-quality prints, luxury linen albums, and custom wall art are designed to stand the test of time, ensuring your memories are preserved for future generations to enjoy!
