Why NOW Is the Perfect Time to Print Family Photos

There’s something about December that feels a little magical, isn’t there? The twinkling lights, the cozy evenings by the fire, the way we instinctively slow down and hold our loved ones just a little closer. This time of year always nudges me to savor the moments that make up our lives—the big ones, the simple ones, and everything in between.

And of course… it also brings holiday cards!

Seeing the cards you create from our sessions genuinely brings me so much joy. It’s become a little tradition to select a prize winner in January from the cards you send. If you have an extra this year, I’d love to see what you’ve made. Just reply or send me a DM, and I’ll happily share my address.

As we move deeper into the season, I also want to gently remind you of something I believe with my whole heart:

Your memories deserve a place in your home—not just in your camera roll.

Below are five reasons I encourage you (maybe even challenge you!) to get those beautiful photos printed and displayed.

1. Your home should tell your story.

Wall prints add warmth and personality in a way nothing else can. They make your space feel lived in, loved, and uniquely yours. Every time you walk past them, you’re reminded of a chapter worth remembering.

2. Children light up when they see themselves displayed.

Kids love spotting photos of themselves at home. It tells them:
You matter in this family. You belong here.
Seeing their image reflected back builds confidence, connection, and pride.

3. Screens are for scrolling—prints are for feeling.

We take thousands of photos every year, yet only a few ever get the love they deserve. Prints invite you and your family to pause, touch, feel, and appreciate the moment all over again.

4. Prints make meaningful gifts.

Thoughtful, personal, joy-sparking, and perfect for grandparents (who treasure absolutely anything featuring their favorite little humans). These are gifts that become heirlooms.
