Arranging and framing photographs.
This is a shot of a rainbow inside a fountain at City Park's Popps Fountain in New Orleans. It's currently going through some renovations. I've used this location for several photo shoots.
So many people have photographs and it can be overwhelming and expensive to put them into frames. You have to decide which type of frame you want to get. One to hang on the wall or a table top frame. That decision can be made by the size of the picture. Anything larger than 8 x 10 should be hung on the wall. The same style of frame in different sizes can work as well as different colors. If color isn’t your thing then go with basic black, silver or gold.
You have to do what makes you comfortable. You don’t want the wall or table to feel cluttered. Using the same types of frames even in different sizes is a great solution when trying to decide on a frame. Once you have the frame you need to decide on the image that will go inside the frame and then decide on the matting. Matting is used so that the image doesn’t touch the glass. Should there be moisture the image could stick to the frame when it dries and if you try to remove the picture it could rip.
If you chose a colorless frame, then you could go with colored matting. The matting can match something in the picture or you could match the décor in the room. It allows you to express who you are.
Thanks for stopping by; do come again. Keep an open mind.
