3 Memorable Ways to Display Newborn Portraits in Your Home

I bet you did not know that actually showcasing your newborn portraits, really does play a huge role in child’s life…

As a Newborn Portrait Photographer and mom of two, I know just how important it is to preserve those memories of your precious baby. It’s been said by Professor Geoff Beattie that, “For children… looking at photographs is part of the socializing process; learning who you are and where you fit into the family. By displaying photographs of our children at different stages of their lives, we are making a very public statement that we are proud of them.” You can view the whole article here quoting Professor Beattie!

Okay, you did the session (woohoo!)! That’s often the hardest part, right? But now you’re left with all these beautiful photos of your new baby. So, what will you do with them? Will you let them sit on a hard drive, risking that one day they might disappear forever? Or will you take those precious images and turn them into something tangible, beautifully displayed for your family to enjoy every day, every month, every year?

Imagine having these memories right at your fingertips, where they can be seen, shared, and even passed down for generations. If you’re anything like me, there’s really no comparison. Make those memories part of your life, and give your family a treasure to hold onto forever.

Whether you’re drawn to elegant framed prints, luxurious albums that double as coffee table art, or a stunning glass box filled with loose prints your family can sift through, there are endless ways to display your newborn portraits! Each option is designed to bring your precious memories to life, creating a beautiful and personal way for your family to relive these moments again and again.

Fine Art Albums

Our albums are perfect for preserving the story of your newborn portraits—a keepsake that will grow more meaningful over time. Albums are ideal for weaving together multiple images into a cohesive story, capturing each precious moment in a way that single prints alone can’t. We offer a variety of options, from linen and leather to soft velvet covers, so you can choose the style that fits beautifully on a coffee table or shelf, ready to be revisited anytime.

One of the most special parts of having an album is the moments it creates down the road. Imagine cozying up with your child as they grow older, flipping through the pages and recounting their birth story like a bedtime tale. These albums become more than just books—they’re cherished heirlooms, connecting your family’s past with its future, just as my own mom did for me.

Custom Framed Prints & Gallery Walls

• Custom Framed Prints:
  • There’s something truly special about displaying your newborn portraits as custom fine art framed prints. Framed prints are my personal favorite, as they have the power to light up a room and create an inviting, heartfelt atmosphere. A large, beautifully framed portrait can serve as a stunning focal point, drawing the eye and adding warmth and elegance to any space. When you work with us as your newborn portrait photographer, we’ll guide you through each step, helping you choose the ideal frame, matting, and placement to perfectly complement your personal style and the aesthetic of your home.
• Gallery Walls:
  • For a creative and versatile display, a gallery wall is a perfect way to showcase multiple newborn portraits in one cohesive arrangement. Mixing frame sizes and shapes adds visual interest, allowing for a curated, personal feel that can reflect your unique style. As time goes on, a gallery wall can be updated and expanded to include new memories and milestones, making it a living tribute to your family’s journey. It’s a beautiful way to tell your family’s story, one frame at a time.

Section 3: Print Boxes & Other Unique Displays

• Print Boxes:
  • Our print boxes offer a timeless, elegant way to display and preserve your newborn portraits. We have two stunning options: a sleek glass box and a soft linen box, each designed to complement your home beautifully. Both options are perfect for displaying on a coffee table, making it easy for family and friends to flip through your prints and cherish these moments alongside you. One of the best parts of a print box is that you can continue adding to it over the years, creating an ever-growing collection of memories. This makes it not only a beautiful addition to your home but also a keepsake to pass down to your children, giving them a tangible link to their own story.
• Cards & Other Creative Options:
  • Sharing your newborn portraits through custom cards—whether for holidays, birth announcements, or thank-you notes—is a beautiful way to spread joy and keep loved ones connected to these special moments. Another wonderful option is creating a custom photo book for your child, filled with the story of their earliest days. This becomes a keepsake they’ll love looking through as they grow, revisiting the moments captured just for them. And don’t forget about companion albums for grandparents! These smaller versions of your album make thoughtful, personal gifts, especially around the holidays.
