Why Should You Custom Frame Your Wedding Photo?

3/10/2014

15 Comments

 
Picture
Most Brides and Grooms have a photographer on their “Wedding planning check list” A photographer is hired to freeze unforgettable moments in time. The poses are well thought out.  The lighting is taken into consideration.  The scenery is carefully chosen. The memories captured in photographs are the souvenirs, reminiscent of a monumental occasion.

If you are making the effort to fit a professional photographer into your wedding budget, then be sure to have your wedding photograph professionally framed as well.  Your wedding photo is a special, personal, and frame-worthy piece of art.  Proper framing will protect and preserve your special memories.

Long Island Picture Frame and their professionally trained staff can help you address custom framing details.  During the framing process, be sure to keep a few key points in mind for optimum results:

Choosing a moulding to frame your portrait is much easier when you enlist the help of a professional framer. Frame moldings are available in several sizes, colors and compositions. There are many moulding choices…wide, thin, brights, neutrals, woods, metals, etc. We will be able to properly guide and help you make an educated choice.

Mats will add a dignified border and enhance your image.  Whether you choose a single or multiple mats, be sure to choose mat colors that will compliment the hues in your photograph.  Paper mats are typically available however, if you have allocated additional funds in your framing budget, you may want to opt for a silk or linen fabric mat.  Upgrading to a fabric mat will add a note of distinction and elegance which most likely emulates the tone of your wedding day.

Glass is the protective blanket between the environment and your wedding picture.  Photographs fade over time…sometimes sooner than you would expect.  It is very important to become familiar with the glass options available to ensure that your precious images are UV (ultraviolet) light protected.  Proper UV protection will safeguard and shield your photograph from the damaging effects of natural and artificial light, which include fading, discoloration and yellowing.  In addition, there are several different “anti-glare” glass options, which can be more pleasing to the eye.

Take advantage of your well, thought out planning.  Use your professional wedding photos as gifts for the years following your wedding.  Frame Mom and Dad’s picture from your wedding for their anniversary gift; Frame your sister’s picture as she hugged you on your wedding day for her birthday gift; Frame your grandparent’s picture as they danced at your wedding for their holiday gift! The possibilities are endless!

You are starting a new beginning and making new memories. Let us help you preserve and protect those precious wedding memories that have been captured.  We will help you accomplish the framing task with ease and allow you to enjoy your treasured wedding portraits for years on end.

Thanks for your advice to custom frame a wedding picture so that you can keep it as a keepsake. I like how you said that it's important to make sure that you hire a professional so that they can help you make the right decision to best fit and match the picture. My husband and I are considering having our wedding photos custom framed so that we can look at it and remember it forever.

I think custom frames a a must for your wedding photos. It is a great time to make sure it matches and makes the image pop. My daughter is getting her photos back soon and I would love to give her one as a gift.

I do like how you point out that mats will enhance your image and give it a dignified border. My husband and I were married about a month ago, and we would like to start setting up all of our pictures and things inside of our home. I think that we'll need to find somewhere to get custom picture frames from so that our wedding pictures will look lovely.

Thanks for helping me understand that there are a lot of choices when it comes to framing your special memories. Like you said, they have various sizes, colors, and compositions. I also like that you emphasized choosing a professional framer because they will be able to educate you about various aspects of framing to help you choose the best one. We are planning to give our parents a restored photo from their wedding day and put it on a frame. They are going to celebrate their anniversary, so I thought that I would give them this kind of gift to remind them of that special day. Thanks for the tips!

It makes a lot of sense that you would want to look into getting framing services. Making sure that a memory as powerful as a wedding is captured is great. This may be a great idea for a present for my parents.

I never knew that getting a mat frame would actually enhance the image that you are putting it in. My wife and I have been thinking of getting our daughter a framed picture of her wedding for a gift when she gets back from a honeymoon. I will be sure to talk to my wife about getting a mat frame!

That is amazing how people keep photographs for a souvenir of their wedding. It would be really nice to have the pictures framed in a really nice frame. That is something that I would love to have for my wedding pictures, a nice frame that really exemplifies my wedding.

That is a good point that picking a moulding is easier with a professional framer. Maybe it would be good to hire one so I could get a good custom picture frame soon. Then we could have a nice frame to put wedding pictures in.

You mentioned that finding molding is much easier when we get help from an expert framer. My sister wants to get a custom frame for her favorite wedding picture. She wants it to be 4 feet long by 6 feet long! I'll be sure to pass this knowledge along to her so that she can find guidance with this.

I love how you said that if you take all the work to make your wedding photo to look good, you should also try and make your frame good as well. You don't want to put a really nice photo in a cheap frame. Especially if it's your wedding picture, which you'll want to cherish forever.

The idea of using a custom frame to preserve a special photographic memory is a great idea. My friend is about to get married, and he doesn't want his wedding picture to go straight into a photo album. I'll share this with him and suggest that he consider looking for a custom frame expert for his photo.

It was mentioned that finding the perfect frame is easier when using a professional. My sister recently got married and would like to frame her photos. I will have to let her know it would be a good idea to hire a professional.

I want to hang up some pictures in my home, but I'm not sure how to go about it. It makes sense that getting some custom frames for the pictures would be beneficial! That seems like a great way to ensure that it matches the rest of my home nicely.
