In the new house, I knew I wanted to do BIG photos. I used to think an 8x10 was a BIG photo until I read this amazing post a couple of years ago about why bigger is better (with photos on walls).
When you walk up the stairs to our second floor, immediately to the right is my office. There is a huge wall I thought would be perfect for a photo grouping. And I went BIG. Six 16x20 canvases.

I can not tell you how happy this wall makes me every time I see it.

It's awesome. Your pictures are beautiful. We are at the over 7 months mark and I am itching to finish up some rooms also. We have bedrooms and one bathroom to tackle. Mostly just with some paint but I am anxious to have the house be officially "ours".
Genius, for sure. As I said yesterday, I'm going to start collecting big prints and canvasses of my favorite shots. I'll figure out where to put them, later. But that wall is so amazing.
I love this! And we are on year 3 in our house. It isn't done.
Decorating is so not my thing.
Maybe I need to have you come over :)
Looks great!!!
Love them! I'm picking up our new 20x24 family picture today. I can't wait!
Those pictures are beautiful and look amazing! I got a gallery photo frame set for a wedding present, and while they are matted huge, the picture sizes are still only 4x6 with an 8x10 thrown in there. I love the look, but wish the pictures themselves were bigger. Maybe I'll get new mats for them and put in larger pictures.
Look at that expression of shear joy on your face. You own that wall as it's because of your talent it exists. Glad you put yourself in the shot.
Great selection of photos to make the wall. Always interesting to see what you think is your best.
That superhero if N has to be displayed. Indeed canvas-worthy. Love this!
Pure genius! I love this grouping of photos and the big size - awesome!
Love it!
Love! Seriously, your photography is awesome. I need more wall space and some great photos so I can have a wall like that. Beautiful!
I love it - I am all about big. We have a 24x36 canvas of a family photo in our living room, and I love it. However, it was taken before we had Will, so it's about time to get another one done.
Amazing!! Great shot! What an inspiration to see your true dreams become reality in so many meaningful ways! Love it!
Gorgeous! (the wall and you!)
Wait, you mean that being insane and being a genius are mutually exclusive? Who knew?
Clearly, the genius part rules this post!
Now THAT is going on my pinterest wall for when I finally have a house to decorate. Love it
Question: Who do you use for your canvas prints?
LOVE! I agree, go big or go home. =)
I think you should put that picture of you in front of all those pictures on a canvas and then put THAT up on the wall with the rest of 'em.
GENIUS. We went big in our living room with a pic taken by Peter. I will send you a pic of it tonight.
It looks great! Where did you have the canvases done?
I definitely think you are insane. But the pictures look awesome! :-)
LOVE it! Bigger is better! Our upstairs hallway has 4 18 x24 photos & I love it!
You are a crazy genius :-)
I love it!
