I honestly don’t know how newborn photographers do it. Patience of all the saints. But I’m so thrilled we have our gorgeous newborn photos all framed and hung up on our walls! Having this done only a couple months after squirrelly baby’s arrival is a huge deal for us.
I’m normally really really bad at getting pictures printed, framed, and hung. Really bad guys. The mister and I got married 3 years ago and it took us until this past summer to print and hang four photos. Knowing my track record, I was a bit worried our newborn photos would sit on our hard drive forever for no ones eyes but our own. Add a baby to the mix and getting organized enough to do it all just goes out the window. Squirrelly baby would be enrolling in kindergarten before we got any photos up.
Thank goodness for the internet. Being a new mom, it’s hard enough for me to get out of the house, let alone go and take time to select the perfect frames for our newborn photos. Even assembling frames is daunting. So it’s such a relief to go to the computer, upload my photos and know that with a few mouse clicks, framed photos would arrived at my door ready for hanging.
You know how store bought frames (especially a certain low budget swedish home goods/furniture chain) often have the wire separate for you to attach on the back? I’m so thankful that snapbox frames are all ready to go, even with the cushion pads on the bottom. Time I would have spent frustrated at setting up the frames (I get frustrated easily) was spent cuddling squirrelly baby instead! Time well spent I say.
I received snapbox frames before, so I knew I would be pleased with the frame quality. It’s so much better than what I would have found off the store shelves, and they just look so good together on the walls.
I chose fine art paper for the photos. I wasn’t sure how it would look as I’ve only printed large photos on regular photo paper, but I was incredibly happy with how it turned out. Up close it has a watercolour paper texture, giving it depth, but from a foot or so back it looks like matte photo paper. The printing is high quality and just looks perfect in the frames!
I mean really, who wouldn’t love staring at a wall full of framed pictures of their baby?

How special that you now have a beautiful wall of photos of the babe! I bet it feels so good to have them up. I am equally bad about getting up family photos, but it doesn’t get much easier than SnapBox. I love their products!
