Placement is an important consideration. Always group in odd numbers as odd numbered groupings are more visually appealing than even. If hanging photos above the mantel, consider placing one large piece in the center of the wall above the mantel with two smaller photos on either side that may simply be resting against the wall on the mantel. Grouping numerous photos together in the same frames but different sizes and hanging those on the wall down a back staircase or down the stairway to a basement family room is a great “gallery” way to display lots of family pictures. Another great look is to cover a sofa table behind a sofa or a console table near the entrance to a room with lots of similar frames in varying sizes. In this case, polished silver frames make a beautiful display. But whatever your style, the combination of professionally selected art and accessories with professional family photographs is striking and will ultimately give the spaces in your home the personal touch they deserve.
