Don’t waste great photos– print them and create your own canvas art

We’re all grateful for digital photography. Having the opportunity to view your photo instantly and being able to delete, edit or retake has revolutionised what we expect from our photographs. Whereas you used to have to click and hope for the best as you sent away your film to be developed only to find blurred shots, over exposure or even the dreaded finger across the lens, nowadays all of those errors are eradicated with the push of a few buttons. But, although we have advanced and progressed in terms of taking better photos, we aren’t appreciating them as so often they stay trapped on our cameras, computers or are uploaded en masse to a social profile. If our pictures are so improved, surely this is a shameful waste and we should be appreciating them fully?

A recent movement is encouraging people to get back into the habit of printing their photos so that they can truly appreciate their photographic work. From professional portraits to candid family holiday snaps, from artistic landscapes to a child’s first attempt at taking photos, we should be celebrating these and admiring them on our walls and desks. A great and different way of printing your photos is to turn them into works of art on canvas by ordering canvas prints online. Creating your own canvas pictures from your photographs is a great way to ensure your photos are being enjoyed properly.

It has been said that the digital camera has killed off the family photo album and, although some of us might be glad to never have to relive the moment when mum pulls out the baby snaps to show to your new girlfriend, it is sad to lose the tangible memories they represent. Why not make sure your favourite family shots secure their place in history by immortalising them on canvas? Create a piece of canvas art that can be passed down through the family as a treasured memento. Getting your photos printed on to paper is great but can sometimes be a hassle as you worry about saturation, calibration, paper quality, finish and even ink choices that can make the whole process a little complicated.

Printing to paper can also be expensive with a professional A3 print costing as much as £50 each and that’s without any framing costs. When you create a canvas print it’s ready to be hung on your wall straight away, so you can get on with enjoying your canvas pictures as soon as they’re delivered. Make sure you are liberating your photos from their digital form and printing them, including ordering canvas prints online, so that your favourite memories can take pride of place in your home.
