Display Thursday
I’m starting a new trend here at MegRuth Photography Blog: Display Thursday!
Thursdays every week I will share with you ideas for displaying the artwork that you can purchase through me with the photographs I take of your family and at your wedding. I love interior design almost as much as I love photography. Here are some great ideas to help you plan your next installation!
Today are features from Design Aglow:
This piece is called a diptych. One photograph is cropped into two pieces and displayed in close proximity. I love how it can turn one of your favorite pieces into a huge wall of art! This could easily be done with canvas or framed prints like you see below.

I do this with most of my art and photo collections. I start with one frame and build off of it. That way you can keep adding new pieces. Keeping everything on a grid makes them look cohesive, even if the frames and art is totally different.

An accordion display on the mantle is a simple and chic way to display your images. Keep them monochromatic or spice up a simple space with color.

Do you have any photos of your MegRuth Photography image displays? I’d love to share them! Email them to meg (at) megruth (dot) com. Send your photos and get a $25 print credit on your next booking with me!
Did you get engaged?!
I know Valentine’s Day is a big day for wedding proposals!
Did you get engaged on Monday? I’d love to hear your story. And what better way to get your planning started off right than by booking photography. Drop me a line and we can chat about your upcoming nuptials!
WINNER!

I am so looking forward to their wedding this September!

I’m beginning to collect images that people snag of me shooting. I think it’s so interesting to see what crazy things I am doing to get my images. Sometimes it’s more exciting than others.

Oh man, that pointed finger! “Sit pretty, Katie!”
And this is the image I was capturing of, Katie. Great comparison, no?
