A wall display like this is ideal for a woman's retreat, yoga room, reading room or sewing room.

Photo Wall - Family Display

6. Inspire love of family first

With the advent of affordable canvas, family portraits are so much more appealing than those of yesteryear.

Say goodbye to the family photo taken in a studio with a daggy backdrop, fake smiles and silly toys to keep the kids entertained.

Photographers today are taking families out and about to create a series of lifestyle photos that are ideal for photo walls.

The wonderful thing about leaving a room is that the family is more relaxed, giving the photographer the opportunity to capture more genuine smiles, more natural poses and a more 'real' representation of who your family is and how you interact.

Sure, you still all have to be well dressed, but the right photographer will give you all the tips your family needs to show up looking dapper.

This canvas wall display, featuring six panels, has one panel larger than the rest - perfect for a 'whole of family' picture.

Photo Wall - Metal Wedding Print

7. Jazz up a hall with wedding photos

Funk up your wedding photos by printing onto luxury metal, a wonderful way to spruce up a hallway.

Regardless of whether your wedding was traditional or a little offbeat, printing to brushed aluminium adds a sense of extravagance.

Ideal for modern styled homes, metal as a material is not only robust, but has a special sheen that is so superb it has to be seen to be truly appreciated.

Once you discover metal, it's hard to turn back but it's OK to save it for those more special occasions, weddings being the perfect example.

8. Make furry friends part of the family

When organising your family portraits, don't forget to include your furry, four legged friends - a wonderful way to make them officially part of the family.

Get ready for 'Ooohs' and 'Ahhhs' from visitors when they see your stunning pet portrait.

Kids and adults alike will love the new level of attention given to the more furry members of the family.

Take some shots yourself or commission a professional photographer to take some pet portraits for you.

Once you have the digital images, upload them into our CanvasApp and create a canvas photo wall that will make you smile every time you pass.

The impact of a black backdrop is stunning for lighter coloured dogs, but not so great for black or dark brown breeds who will stand out better on a lighter backdrop.

Now, puppies, say cheese!

11. Start building a photo wall

Bring your living area to life by building a photo wall full of texture, colour and organised chaos.

We're not suggesting you buy all these at once, but rather begin building a collection of single prints in different materials - canvas, glass and metal - and in different sizes and shapes.

Pick a different subject everytime - people, pets, plants, travel, inspirational quotes.

You might even like to print your Facebook cover photo rather than leaving it live in the land of digital.

Perhaps consider each canvas as a reward. That is, everytime you achieve a mini goal, treat yourself to a new print.

Perhaps you got top marks for an assignment, lost 5kg, beat your running personal best.

Grow your photo wall organically and see it expand into something bigger and better each and every time.

You deserve it, don't you think?
