How many photos you have on display?.

[SleepingStandingUp]

Just curious.

I've bought 7 frames for a photo shoot we had done of DS but trying to work out where to out them.

Living room has 21 photos plus 5 multiframes. Hallway (where the new ones are likely to go) has 4. Spare room (box room) has 1 and 2 multiframes. DS's room has 11. Our room has 3 framed but a wall full too.

I'm beginning to think it's excessive...

Not that many tbh. A handful of frames dotted around. None on the walls.

None of people. One of the pet and about 3 - 5 fine art photos, we move things around and take things down for a while. We mainly have art on display, quite a lot and we swap it all around to keep things looking fresh.

Actually the one of the pet isn't on a wall it is on the windowsill so just art on the wall although that includes some photographic prints.

1, I think they look untidy and a bit dated.

Photos are dated?

How is displaying photos of relatives a fashion thing?

I’ve got a couple of photos of my dead Dad on the fridge, but none otherwise.

I’m not keen on photos of people. I’ve got my real kids here to look at whenever I want, and I don’t really like any other family enough to want them eyeballing me from the window-silk when I’m sat here picking my nose TBH.

Maybe if we had a nice arty photo of a special occasion, I’d stick that up somewhere.

I use an old iPad as a digital photo frame random slideshow - that has 10,000 photos on it. Its right in the centre of the house so I see it all the time.

No other photos, the rest of the frames are art.

When was the era of the photo then Soiree?

It feels like such a shame to have a laptop full of photos and never really look at them

I go by the rule of "art on the walls, photos on surfaces" as well. Although I'm not averse to a gallery wall of photos on the stairs/hallway/downstairs loo, for some reason. (And I don't judge what anyone else likes in their home!)

I have about four photos up, we only live in a small flat so wouldn't mind one or two more but not more than that as I don't want it to be cluttered. Two of groups of friends, one of me and DP, one family photo. Somewhere I have an 'arty' photo of a pet, I might allow that on the wall

I have loads - we have a gallery in the hall going up the stairs. I am not ashamed

They are a selection of shots, some of DS through the ages (he's 10 now) and it's lovely to see a reminder of how he used to look when he was younger, you get so used to them how they are at the present. But we also have photos of places we've been that mean a lot to us, other people who mean a lot - as long as they are in a good photo worth framing.

The frames are all much the same for uniformity, but the sizes are different. The wall looked blank and cold before, it's far more interesting to me now.

I don't have many other than that, the only exception is the school photos which are obligatory

I like to catch a glimpse of DS when he was a young cutie, particularly now that he's becoming a stroppy teenager with a lip shadow.

Having said that, I had a trio of multiphoto frames on the wall with people that I replaced with "arty" photos when I sold a house (you know, make it less personal), and I never replaced them back.

Very few family photos on display, personally I don’t like walls/mantelpieces full of family photos, think it looks a little naff.

We have some on a wall in our study and it’s a room used just by myself and DH, we have three in small silver frames on a table in our hall and that’s it really. I prefer to hang paintings/art in our walls.

But we do have albums full of photos, which we look through with the kids every so often.

None,

Ds has autism and is a serial photo frame smasher 😆

learnt that lesson!

Loads. It's very passé but I love them. Just did a spot count in my lounge and it's 34.

I think we've got about 5 frames overall downstairs in our house. Wedding photo, triple frame with photos of each of the kids as babies, a couple of them together and one small family one. Got more upstairs on the landing but I'm terrible at updating them.

This has made me think. I was going to answer 'none' as we have no photos framed and on walls or surfaces, but then I remembered that I have my 'happy wall' above my desk in the office where I work from home and that has about 100 photos of us all, plus photos of my parents and grandparents and John F Kennedy (during the Cuban Missile Crisis, to remind me that my work will never be that bad and to get a grip if I think I'm stressed!) The wall of photos is just haphazard photos stuck on board with magnets but it makes me very happy to glimpse any of it (apart from JFK, that's just an emergency photo).

Wow, millions - is photography not an art? Mostly our horses, us on horses jumping hedges or doing something at some memorable event or other, or just portraits of horses, hunting etc it’s judt good juju isn’t it

Wow, millions - is photography not an art?

Photography can be an art. However, holiday snaps and Venture portraits don’t really fall into that category.

None - not sure why but have never really been into photos all over the walls!

I have never heard anyone think that having photos on the walls is tacky/common/naff before! Most people I know are obsessed with photo walls at the moment.
I have 22 photos up in the lounge, a few larger multi frames and a couple of smaller ones. But then I also have Lego displayed out in my lounge so I’m clearly not at the height of latest interior fashion.

I don't like the look of lots of photos all over the house. We have an area in the kitchen and one on the top floor where we have a small group of framed photos instead.

Living room: 7
Hall/up the stairs: 5
Study: 2 (but definitely space for more)
Dinning room: 3 + multiframe
Downstairs cloakroom: none but taken over by DH hobby!
Kitchen: none, just some kids paintings.
Bedroom: Only 2 at the moment + 4 prints/poems
Guest room: 7 portraits, 8 landscapes, 2 artworks, 8 postcards in multi frame.
DC rooms: their own choice

Odd ones of the grandchildren and daughter's wedding but the best ones are holiday photos, no people just lovely sights!

I have none on display.
