So, you’ve had your photo session and now you are wondering whether you should get any prints done??

Let me tell you 7 great reasons for why you should print your photos:

1. Of course cost is a significant factor in deciding whether to buy almost anything. However, one reason to print your photos is the cost. Good professional photographers offer print packages and will get their photos printed in a professional lab. This means that your photos are of the highest quality possible and the significance of the photo lasts forever. Photo prints make excellent but inexpensive gifts for just about anyone in your life, and are a great way to preserve your favorite moments and memories while spending just a little pocket change. How many times have you not spent $400 on a whole new outfit, but you might only wear those clothes for the next year and then they either don’t fit, you don’t like them anymore or they are out of fashion. Your photos will never be out of fashion, they are your family heirlooms.
2. Photo prints are a great way of archiving your life and remembering those precious moments. Your weddings day, your babies first few weeks of life, taking their first step, your family holidays etc…… Taking photos is really just the first step. Once you have those images captured, print your favorite photos so you can enjoy them and look at them for years to come. At the rate technology is moving, your digital files may be outdated before you know it and DVDs and hard drives don’t last forever either!
3. Share the STORY Digital photo sharing is a great way to share your memories with people quickly and easily all over the world through Facebook, your blog or emails. But, I still think the best way to share your photos is to print them and give them to people, and look at them together and tell stories about the photos you took. Printed photos tell a story from your life, whether it was a family holiday, wedding or event, or just a random day. They allow you to pass those memories on to your friends and family. Even as we all grow older, those memories last forever. Photo books are a great way to showing your favourites photos to your friends and families and make great decorations for your Coffee Table.
4. Printed photos are also a great way to back up your photos. We’ve all heard the horror stories of people losing thousands of precious photos due to computer failure or malfunction. Don’t let this happen to you! Print your photos and store them safely. That way, you have physical and digital copies, so your memories are always safe.
5. What better way to decorate your home or office with your favorite photos! I can print your photos in a variety of different sizes, from small wallets to large prints and canvas. Or, take it to the next level and order a mounted enlargement for an even more impressive display. Personalize any room, whether it is photos of the favourite people in your life, or cool artistic photos you’ve taken.
6. Let’s face it…photo prints take us all back to our childhood. They are a return to the sentimental and simpler days of sharing moments and memories, before you had hundreds of photo and social media sites to choose from. Sometimes, a good reason to print photos is simply because you miss having the people around. Printed photos invoke much more emotion than staring at an image on a computer screen. You can hold the printed photo in your hand or hang it on your wall, which makes the memory that much more tangible and real. I know I wish I had photos of some of the precious people in my life that are here no more, but I lost my negatives and never got them printed. I can’t get that time back and now I wish I had great photo of both my grand dads that I could look at every day to remind myself of the amazing people they were.
7. It is so easy to order your prints. All your photos are uploaded in an online gallery after your session and all you have to do is choose which ones you want printed. You don’t even have to go to the store yourself. I will either send them out or hand deliver them to you. It doesn’t get any easier than that!
