Good book.......2005-09-25

Artfully showcase your family photographs where everyone can see them instead of in an album or scrapbook. They'll add appeal to your home & you'll be able to take pleasure in them every day. From classical to eclectic.

Your pictures can only be fully appreciated if they're shown to their best effect.

No tips, just directions to hire a photographer /framer.......2002-07-03

What a disappointment! Although there are some beautiful photos here, you can find similarly beautiful photos in "Architectural Digest", "Home and Garden", etc. What ticked me off was that it would mention something enticing (like canvas inserts), but say only to request them from your photographer. For those of us who like (or have!) to do it ourselves, it wouldn't have taken much space or time to very briefly explain what that is (it is like a very plush canvas-covered matboard), where to buy it (most framers, or online), how to use it (as you would matboard), available colors (I've only seen ivory and black). Likewise, a few framing tips would have been a very nice idea, rather than just saying "go to a good framer", like each reader has tons of money for this. It could have been a wonderful book if the authors had only been a teensy bit less greedy, and tried to help readers from all walks of life, rather than just the super-rich.

A masterful display of photo originality!.......2000-04-10

A must have book for anyone who is in search of classfully unique photo decorating ideas.

I got a glimpse of this handsome title at a freinds home. If you are the type to pay well for a family portrait, this book shows stunningly beautiful ways to display it in your home. The typography is a little large (casual) for my taste, but the photos are the focus anyway. I'd call it more accessible than most of Martha "you-know-who" but still targeted to the well heeled. Family portraits are special to us and definitely a fitting focal point in our home decor.
