The Ultimate Family Photography Mother's Day Gift

I've been waiting for eight months or so for Mother's Day to come back around, so I could share with you the ultimate family photography Mother's Day gift that our client planned for his sweet wife and mother-in-law last year. Happy wife, happy life, right? We guarantee your wife and mother-in-law will be overjoyed with a Mother's Day gift like this! These two moms sure were!

 

Kain had contacted us shortly before Mother's Day last year for a family photography gift certificate to present to his wife and mother-in-law, who lives with them. Soon after Mother's Day passed, Kain's mother-in-law reached out to set a date for their pre-portrait planning meeting, and the rest is history! You can see images from their Wheaton, Maryland family photography session at Brookside Gardens here. 

 

But what I really wanted to share with you in this post is what these two moms chose to do with their family portraits. (Both the family photography session and the finished portrait artwork were Kain's gifts to the moms in his life. He chose to stay out of the family photography this time around to make it all about them and their young son.)

 

The two moms' final choices included a 6-piece wall portrait love grouping, the largest of which was a 20x30 thick canvas gallery wrap, surrounded by five metal prints ranging from 10x10 to 16x20 in size. While the grouping was designed to be hung on a single wall together, they were looking at buying a new home, and liked the flexibility that the love grouping gave them, since the pieces could also be split up and hung on separate walls.  (By the way, as an extra side benefit of this sweet Mother's Day gift, did you know that hanging professional family photography on your walls helps to increase your child's self-esteem?  Find out how here.)

Then, Kain's mom-in-law loved our 'Artful' Albums and chose her 20 favorite family portraits for a classic-design, professional photo album with a custom photo cover and art green inside paper. And finally, for archival purposes, Kain's wife chose the hi-res digital files of all of the images to make their final family photography collection just perfect.

 

Can you imagine a better Mother's Day gift? Kudos to Kain! These two women are awfully lucky to have such a sweet and thoughtful man in their life!
