Why should you print your photos?

A photo session is an outstanding experience that gives you and your family so many memories to cherish. However, in our predominantly digital era, we can easily fall into the trap of hoarding thousands of photos without ever taking the proper time to enjoy them. For this instance, printing can be a great option if you want to make sure that your most loved photos will receive the attention they truly deserve. 

I described below three reasons why you should print your photos and why definitely printing is not dead, just changed its fate from being about quantity to being more and more about quality. 

Ever-lasting

How many times have you forgotten your password to some dropbox or to enter into an email address? Do you remember the time when your laptop just gave up and never returned to you all those valuable files, stocked up with your selfies, but also with your most stunning vacation moments? These are all scenarios that have happened many times with every one of us. 

No matter how many backup measures we are willing to take, somehow bad luck manages to find its way in our life exactly when we hit save to the dearest album of photos. Therefore, printing your photos can transform your favorite memories into ever-lasting pieces without the fear of losing them in a black hole of data. 

Safe

When talking about the black holes of the digital era we live in, we must admit that printing is also one of the safest ways to store photos and to make sure that certain pieces do not end up in the wrong hands. When printed, our pictures become a physical existence that we can see, touch, feel and follow through their entire lifetime. 

Creative 

Printing your photos is not about quantity anymore, as it used to be in the early 2000s. Nowadays, printing is more and more about letting your creativity flow. You should print just those pieces that are truly valuable from either an artistic point of view or from the perspective of your most cherished memories. This way, printing your photos becomes a creative process that will nourish your artistic persona and will let your mind wander around. 

Take advantage of all the technological advancements in printing and see which formats or technologies would offer you the best results according to your desires. Would you like to display your most beautiful moments from a photoshoot on the wall? Opt for stunning posters. Would it be better to have them in a handy album that you can easily flip through? Just take your time and do not be afraid to ask your photographer for a bit of advice on the matter. 

Finally, when we choose to print a photo, we also choose to give that piece a role in our life. The printed photos become a part of our daily lives that we can admire easily and allow them to bring back into our minds our most enjoyed experiences.
