Senior portraits can be placed in almost any area of your home, but there are specific locations where they truly shine. To inspire you to think creatively, we've compiled several innovative ideas for senior portrait wall displays of your child’s senior portrait prints once you receive them.
Highlight Your Favorite Spaces
Consider the areas in your home where you most enjoy spending time. This could be anything from a cozy reading nook to the living room or even the laundry area. Adding one of the portraits to a frame and placing it in these cherished spots ensures you always have a special reminder of this significant milestone.

Above the Fireplace
Do you have a fireplace in your home? This spot is ideal for hanging a senior portrait, whether it’s framed or printed on canvas. If you have multiple children, you can create a small gallery above your fireplace, giving each child their own special place.
Reimagine Your Bookshelf
While bookshelves are primarily designed to store books, they don’t have to be limited to that function. Get inventive by blending your favorite books with one or two framed senior portraits and other decorative items. This not only adds visual interest but also personalizes the space.
Ditch the Traditional Frames
If your home decor leans towards a more artistic vibe, consider displaying small canvas prints on easels. These look fantastic on side tables in either the bedroom or the living room. Additionally, they serve as instant conversation starters about your senior.
Enhance Your Entryway
It’s always a delight to be greeted by beautiful family photos and portraits upon entering a home. Vary the frame sizes and colors to create a dynamic and visually appealing display in your foyer, adding a creative touch to this welcoming space.
Integrate Them into Their Graduation Party
Are you planning to host a graduation party at home for your senior? Why not use some of their unique shots as part of the décor? This celebration is all about them, so make them the focal point in every possible way. For an extra special touch, consider using these professional photos to create holiday decorations.
No matter what you decide, ensure that you print your child’s senior photos. After all, you’re hiring a professional photographer for this momentous occasion, so make it worthwhile.
