The Magic of Memories: Why You Should Print and Display Your Family Photos

As parents, we all know the feeling. You blink, and suddenly your baby is walking, running, riding a bike and going off to school. Time flies by so quickly, and as our children grow, it can be a bittersweet experience. It’s a feeling that we all know too well, and it is often hard to put these emotions into words. However, there is a simple yet powerful way to capture and preserve these moments: printing and displaying photographs in your home.

With such amazing technology in our times, we often rely on our phones, computers or the cloud to store our precious memories. We scroll endlessly through social media, double tap and move on. Every month we capture hundreds of photos of our children, sometimes even daily. How many of these photographs actually make it off our devices and into our homes? But what happens to those memories when the device breaks or gets lost? What happens when there are so many thousands of photos stored in one place it is too overwhelming to even find the time to scroll through and enjoy them. What happens when these memories that brought us so much joy are simply just lost forever?

The truth is, we need to print our photos. We need to take the time to sort through these special memories, choose the best ones and print them out. Once we have these physical prints in our hands we need to display them in our homes so that these memories are never lost. It could be in the form of wall art, photo books or albums, smaller frames and prints or just a few photo fridge magnets. However we choose to print and display our memories, take comfort in knowing these moments will be treasured, remembered and relived for years to come. Moreso, displaying photos in our home can also have a profound impact on our family.

When we print and display photos in our homes, we create a visual history of our family. Each photograph tells a story, as we look at them, we are reminded of the moments that we shared together. We see our children grow and change right before out eyes. We remember the laughter, the tears, the cheeky smiles, chaos and everyday moments that make up the fabric of our lives.

But it is not just about preserving memories. It’s about creating a sense of belonging and connection. When we display photographs in our homes, we are telling our children that they are an important, valued and loved member of our family. That they play a vital part in our family’s story.

As our children grow and change, it can be easy to forget the little moments that make up their childhood. But when we display photographs in our homes, we are reminded of those moments every day. We see the way their faces light up when they discover something new. We remember the way they looked when they took their first steps. We feel the warmth of their hugs and the sound of their laughter. These are the moments that make up the heart and soul of our families, and they are worth preserving.

So, what can you do to start preserving your family’s memories? First, take the time to sort through your photos and choose the best ones. Consider making a photo book annually to store each years memories and adventures. If you would like to start creating wall art out of your photographs, consider investing in a professional family photoshoot, a professional newborn photography session or even in maternity photoshoot. As a natural Sydney photographer, it is my job to take natural everyday moments and capture the emotions, raw, honest and real and turn them into art you will want to display on your walls and enjoy forever. The best part of a family, newborn or maternity photoshoot with Daniella Photography is that I also help design your wall art and get it printed by some of Sydney’s best printers and framers, all carefully chosen for their heirloom quality.

Imagine having your intimate newborn portraits Sydney displayed and framed on your wall to enjoy for many years to come. Your child will grow up talking about how tiny they were and knowing they were loved from that very first moment. I personally display and print photos in different forms annually. I also invest in annual family photos with professional photographers as I know that these photos will be some of my most precious possessions in time to come. Nothing can take them away from me and they will always remind me of the good old days long after they are over. The possibilities of what you can do with your photos is endless, but the key is to make sure you are capturing the moments and that they are on display.

As our kids and babies grow, it can be sad to see them leave behind each stage of their childhood. I personally sobbed when my newborn outgrew that newborn stage. How many times do you get to parent a newborn in your life? These moments are so fleeting but by printing and displaying photographs in our homes, we can create a visual history of our family, preserve memories, and create a sense of belonging and connection. So, let's take the time to print our photos, display them proudly, and cherish the memories that they hold. Our families deserve nothing less.
