Everybody has at some point in their lives taken a few pictures here and there during important, meaningful events. Back in the day, we would usually get our photographs developed and printed at a photography store. Then, we keep them in albums or framed them up on the mantelpiece at home. Today, we use our phones for photography and we rarely find the need to print pictures because of online sites like Instagram, where most of our favourite pictures find themselves after a beach party with friends. Despite that, we’re here to stand by photo printing as we believe that there is something uniquely personal which adds emotional value to photo prints.
If you’re looking for gift ideas, inspiring decor pieces or some personal keepsakes, then look no further. Here’s why online photo printing is the best choice for you.
Why Photo Printing Works and How To Get The Suitable Type For You
When we print pictures, we add a sense of tangibility to our memories. Storing pictures digitally is easy and convenient, but it lacks a sense of lasting impression and we often forget about most of these pictures on a daily basis. With photo printing, we ensure that we are reminded of our most prized memories when we see them, whether they’re kept in our wallet, a locket, or hung in spaces around the house. It also makes for the most personal decoration style in our home in the form of framed large photo prints or small wall prints.
There are many things to consider when you order photos online. The paper you use to print pictures is one of them. For instance, choose a Fujifilm Crystal Archive Gloss print as it gives richer, more vibrant colours while a Matte surface presents a more natural, true-to-life photograph. Different sizes also come into play when you’re deciding on how you want the photo printing to fit in with the decor in your house. There are many ways you can display your treasured memories and that is why we offer small to large-sized options. More specifically, we have bite-sized measurements like 4” x 6” prints or square prints, to large 8” x 10” or 11” x 14” prints.
Besides large photo prints, collage prints are also commonly used as home decor. Here are a few popular theme ideas for you.

How To Arrange Photo Prints
Once you’ve finished your online photo printing, you’ll need to find a way to display them. Here’s our favourite ways to do so.
A Wall of Memories
One great way to showcase your photo prints is to dedicate an entire wall to your collection of photos. Get creative and arrange them so they make a shape or opt for a classic fairy lights and wooden clips to make your own photo shrine. Hanging your photo prints on a wall works especially well if you have a large photo printing that can form a nice focal point in the room.
Time Capsule
Include a collage of photo prints in your very own time capsule! This is a very unique and fun way to remember memorable events and people. Simply print pictures, place them in a box, and come back to them in a few years! Relive the year through your lens and discover hidden gems that might have slipped your mind.
Real-Life Instagram Feed
We talked about how we use Instagram to share our pictures nowadays, so why not bring it to life? There’s nothing quite as aesthetically pleasing as a well-curated Instagram feed, anyway. With our square prints, print out your best photos and create your own “non-virtual” photo feed on your bedroom wall
Photobooks
It’s hard to go wrong with a classic photo album. There’s nothing like the nostalgic joy of taking a minute to relax and flip through a book filled entirely with just the golden days and most treasure moments. 6” x 4” photo prints are usually the best option for albums. You can include handwritten captions or add some stickers for extra effect.
Get started on printing your favourite photos by uploading them to our online Photobook Editor. You can easily customise all of your photos to your liking — add filters, brighten images, add stickers and even create a collage of photos.
