How To Photograph Your Space For Your Digital Wall Art Previews

Let’s take your walls from blank to brilliant!

Here at the Studio, we use a special program that allows us to create custom digital renderings & mockups of Wall Art pieces hanging in your space - this allows you to visualize & preview exactly how a Wall Art piece or Gallery will look in your home before you submit an order. It’s easy to experiment with different sizes, styles, & arrangements, & this system takes away any worries that we may have about a piece not fitting in with your decor, showing up as the wrong size, etc.

There are so many ways to display Wall Art - many people enjoy creating a gallery wall with a selection of multiple smaller framed images, while others prefer to display one large image as a highlight of the room. It’s important to use the spaces where you spend the most of your time to display the images you love!

So how do we create your custom Wall Art previews?
I’ll need a little help from you to get the ball rolling! All you need is your smartphone, a piece of white 8.5” x 11” printer paper, a small piece of tape, & about 5 minutes - read on for detailed instructions on how to easily photograph your space, & don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have.

#1. Decide where you would like to display your wall art

Think about your favorite places in your home, office, or retail space - where you would like to display your memories?
Popular location choices for wall art include:

Bedrooms | Kitchens | Dining Rooms | Living Rooms | Entryways
Offices | Stairways | Bathrooms | Hallways

#2. Take a Photo of Your wall space with your smartphone

Take a sheet of normal white printer paper (8.5” x 11”) & tape it horizontally to the wall where you would like to hang your art. Turn on any overhead lights in the room, open the curtains to let in some light, etc. - the brighter the space, the better.
Take a Horizontal (Landscape) photo of the wall with your phone: stand square on to the wall if you can, & keep your phone as level & straight as possible.
Get as much of the room as you can in the photo, try to include at least a sliver of ceiling & the floor; & your furniture when possible so that we can get the best sense of your decor & style.
Repeat this process as many times as necessary for all of the walls you would like to hang art on!

#3. Send US Your Photos via text or email

Now that you’ve photographed your walls, send your photos to the Studio via text or email & we’ll get started on generating your wall art previews.

What happens next?

I’ll be showing you some sample rooms & renderings during your Image Purchasing Session - these will just be quick examples & ideas to inspire you so that you can easily envision Wall Art pieces for your home or office space. Once you send over the photos you took with your phone, we will recreate & reupload the wall art previews using the photos you provided so that you can see exactly how your wall art pieces would look in your space.

The program we use to create these digital renderings is able to generate the exact sizes needed for your Wall Art pieces based on the dimensions of the 8.5” x 11” printer paper hanging on the wall - super cool! During your Image Purchasing Session, we will review your collections together & make any desired changes to the styles & sizes of your Wall Art before you finalize your orders.

Wall Art FAQs

We Design, Create & Install - No Stress!

What if I don’t know where I want to hang my Wall Art?

No problem! Every custom photoshoot includes a planning session 3-4 weeks before your session date. This is when we get together and plan out all of the details of your photoshoot, & we will also chat about where you may want to hang your portraits! We will make suggestions based on the type of photoshoot you book, your decorating style, etc. And the great news? You don’t need to commit to any Wall Art purchases after you see the designs we create for you at your Image Purchasing Session!

I never know what to print. Can you help with this?

Yes! During your Image Purchasing Session, we will make suggestions based on what we think will look best in your space. When selecting images for Wall Art, we look for your favorites, which images tell a story when paired together, which images match your home decor and style, and what images will look best in the frames we’ve selected for your space. We will work together to update photos, frames, and sizes during your Image Purchasing Session until you’re 100% satisfied!

Wall Art is an investment, can we print it ourselves?

Of course! At Miranda Kelton Photography, every portrait you purchase comes with the high-res digital image. You’re welcome to print your portraits on your own. However, we can’t guarantee the quality. As a professional portrait studio, we have access to the world’s best print labs to ensure quality, and as an added layer of protection, we even offer a lifetime guarantee! If anything happens to the wall art you purchased through us, we will reprint it for you at no extra charge. We also find that our clients would much rather have our team design, print, and install for them, it’s a way more pleasant experience than having to DIY it.

Do you have any sales or deals on Wall Art?

Wall art is a premium product, so we rarely have sales. However, we do include bonus wall art credit within our image bundles so you can go home with all the images you fall in love with from your photoshoot and save up to $500 on your favorite piece of wall art!
