Planning your maternity portraits is such an exciting journey! From picking out stunning gowns to enjoying a professional makeover, the entire process culminates in images that capture you as an absolute goddess.
But there’s one big question: What do you do with your maternity portraits once they’re beautifully retouched and ready?
You’ve invested so much in these memories—don’t let them sit on your phone or vanish into the digital void. The real magic happens when your portraits are proudly displayed!
Let’s explore my three favorite ways to showcase your maternity portraits at my Reading PA photography studio, along with the pros and cons of each, so you can decide which option is perfect for you.
The Album
An album is the most timeless way to display your portraits. But unlike the albums you might remember from your grandma’s days, these are elevated to a whole new level of sophistication. Your portraits are printed on high-quality paper and mounted directly onto thick board pages, creating a polished, seamless look. Plus, you can choose from a variety of luxurious cover options, like the ever-popular acrylic print cover, for a modern touch.
Pros:
Compact and easy to store.
A beautiful keepsake that can be enjoyed for years.
Cons:
Once the pictures are printed, they can’t be rearranged or swapped out.
The Photobox
This product is a fan favorite—and it’s easy to see why! Made to order in Italy, this elegant box is crafted from high-quality materials and features a shatter-resistant acrylic front.
Inside, your portraits are beautifully matted on 8”x10” mats, making them perfect for display on a coffee table, shelf, or mantel. And because the prints aren’t permanently attached to the box, you can take them out, hang them, gift them, or even swap the front cover image to match your mood or season.
My favorite part? If your collection doesn’t fill the entire box, you can keep adding to it over time. Imagine your maternity and newborn portraits in one stunning place.
Pros:
Versatile and customizable.
A beautiful display piece with flexibility to add more portraits.
Cons:
Requires a little more space than an album.
Acrylic Prints
If you want to make a bold statement, acrylic prints are the way to go! These show-stopping pieces give your images a three-dimensional effect with a sleek, modern vibe. Your portraits are printed on premium paper, embedded in acrylic, and finished with an easy-to-hang French cleat mounting system.
This option is perfect if you believe the best art for your walls is your own story. Wall art shines when printed large, so go big and make your portraits the centerpiece of your home.
Pros:
Stunning, bold, and modern.
Perfect for creating an unforgettable impression.
Cons:
Best suited for those who have ample wall space.
